    In this episode I chat with the wonderful Nickita Starck, Founder of 'When Push Comes to Shove'. Nickita started her birth journey in 2008 when she gave birth to her first daughter. After a very traumatic birth she started asking questions. Her grandmother explained to her that was she had experienced was ‘common' NOT ‘normal'. This gave Nickita a thirst for birth knowledge and so her journey began. She briefly studied midwifery but quickly decided that was not for her. Since then she has learned her skills through a rather an unconventional methods. Although she trained to be a doula, she has also gained knowledge from granny midwives and ancient traditional practice. Nickita is a mother to two daughters, an author, birth activist, teacher, traditional birth attendant and singer / songwriter. We talk about self-development before being a parent, How trauma can be passed on from previous generations to your children and what she believes we all need to know to prevent illness and having problems during pregnancy. Push comes to Shove provides courses, resources for anyone who wants to get into home birthing or have more options/choices when it comes to maternity care.
