When we decided to focus this season on the subject of birth and creativity, we knew we'd have to include Anna Hennessey, a writer and scholar based in San Francisco. Much of Anna's writing over the past decade, which includes a book called Imagery, Ritual, and Birth: Ontology between the Sacred and the Secular, is devoted to the topic of birth in the humanities. She also has a blog called Visualizing Birth, intended to provide people with images, videos and stories that they can use as practical tools to help them in envisioning the birth of their own children. In addition to her writing, Anna is the current director of the Society for the Study of Pregnancy and Birth, an intellectual hub for scholars in the arts, humanities, and social sciences who research pregnancy and birth in their fields. Her academic background is in the history of religion, with a focus on Chinese art, philosophy, religion, and language. She's taught in the University of California and California State University systems, and has researched as a visiting scholar at UC Berkeley. She lives with her husband and children in San Francisco and travels frequently to Catalonia, her husband's homeland. Anna is also deeply connected to her own Irish heritage and Ireland, which is a topic that we discuss here as well. Kaitlin's conversation with Anna is deeply informative, rich with insightful references to scholars and to artists throughout history who are changing our conception of the intellectual as well as the practical possibilities of birth art.

We have chosen to construct this apparatus to explore a wild cosmos of minds, to awaken ours & other's hearts, and to expand ourselves. To step off the mat & live the practice of unity. Because each & everyone of us sees the world through our own unique light. And we wish to connect our lights as constellations, beyond opinion. To challenge the false narratives that divide us. To stand strong with one another's truths. To learn to hold different perspectives simultaneously. To free the path to the stars. To not just welcome, but to also enthusiastically embrace the disruption of our reality. And to create cosmos out of chaos. Welcome to stars+destruct.

 My guest today is Robbie Davis-Floyd PhD,  Adjunct Professor, Dept. of Anthropology, Rice University, Houston and Fellow of the Society for Applied Anthropology. Dr. Davis-Floyd is a medical/reproductive anthropologist, international speaker (over 1000 presentations) and researcher in transformational models in childbirth, midwifery and obstetrics. She is author of over 80 articles, 23 encyclopedia entries, and of Birth as an American Rite of Passage (1992, 2003) and Ways of Knowing about Birth: Mothers, Midwives, Medicine, and Birth Activism (2018); coauthor of From Doctor to Healer: The Transformative Journey (1998) and The Power of Ritual (2016); and co-editor of 12 collections. Robbie serves as Editor for the International Childbirth Initiative and Lead Editor for the Routledge series “Social Science Perspectives on Childbirth and Reproduction.”I asked her about her most recent book, BIRTHING TECHNO-SAPIENS: HUMAN-TECHNOLOGY CO-EVOLUTION AND THE FUTURE OF REPRODUCTION. What is a techno-sapiens? After offering an explanation, I wanted to know the meaning of cyborg.I read that once Robbie was asked by a frustrated Latin American epidemiologist,"Why don't obstetricians get it? We epidemiologists understand that the vast majority of what they do during labor and birth is just plain wrong. Lots of pediatricians do too. Like—cutting the umbilical cord immediately is just plain stupid! So why don't OBs act according to the evidence, as we have long been insisting that they do? Instead they just blindly follow obstetric traditions—why can't they learn to think for themselves? “ She answered that the majority of obstetricians are fear driven; fear of anything going wrong, fear of being sued, fear of criticism by colleagues if they dare not to follow the status quo. She said none of the obstetricians practicing in the US have ever seen a normal unassisted vaginal birth. Robbie would dearly like to see present day obstetrics humanized.Robbie is, amongst her many other projects, working on a personal memoir.My guest next week will be Susan Highsmith Phd, Counselor, Author of  "The First Fairy Tales I - IV"   a series of fairy tales for unborn, newborn and very young children designed to help parents bond with their children and children attach to their parents.If you liked this podcast please tell your friends about it, subscribe to this podcast wherever you listen to podcasts and/or write a brief note on apple podcasts, check out my blogs on Psychology Today at https://www.psychologytoday.com/intl/contributors/thomas-r-verny-md
