Birth is the transition into parenthood, and your birth story affects your early parenting experience. In this episode, I'm joined by Jaely Turner, a Perinatal Educator, Birth Story Listener, and doula, to talk about the power in our birth stories. We discuss why birth stories matter, the importance of integrating our birth story, and how carrying that story forward without holding space for it can have a negative impact. We also expand this idea to cover the whole journey from fertility stories to postpartum and lactation stories. Jaely also shares how birth story medicine is different from processing with a therapist, and how both can be valuable.About JaelyJaely Turner (she/her) is a Mom of 2 based in Northern Virginia.  She is a Perinatal Educator, Birth Story Listener, Full Spectrum Doula, & owner of Our Village Circle Birth Services, whose mission is to create a space of authenticity & elevate the voices of parents and professionals alike, to demystify the realities of new parenthood.  Jaely understands, on a visceral level, that with the joy of your new human also comes every other emotion under the sun, and aims to help her clients feel seen, heard, known, and held in this life-altering stage.  She wholeheartedly believes that everyone's story has something powerful to offer others as they navigate their own journey.Connect with JaelySchedule a Birth Story Medicine session with Jaely: www.ourvillagecircle.com/birthstory Signature Online Course: Preparing for a Smooth Postpartum:www.ourvillagecircle.com/webinarWebsite: www.ourvillagecircle.comIG: https://www.instagram.com/ourvillagecircle/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ourvillagecircleConnect with KimGrab a free sleep myth busting guide and learn more about working with Kim:https://intuitiveparentingdc.com/Instagram: instagram.com/intuitive_parenting_dcFacebook:  facebook.com/intuitiveparentingdc

~Birth Story Medicine & Healing the Postpartum Pelvic Floor w/ Dr. Rebecca Cohen~ Hi friends! Today I am joined by Dr. Rebecca Cohen, @fullcircleholistic, as she shares her 5 birth stories, her journey supporting women as an OB to a more aligned independent home birth approach, and healing her postpartum pelvic floor. I first began following Rebecca after hearing her full story on the Free Birth Society Podcast and my mind was kinda blown. Then, I recently stumbled upon a beautiful, undisturbed birth (@humblymarij -episode 10 if you'd like to listen to the birth story) to which Rebecca was her birth attendant! I knew I had to invite her on! I'm so impressed by Rebecca's journey because she's a real testament to what it can look like leaving the medical system and trusting your body, while living in your authority and authenticity. She shares about her journey healing multiple prolapses postpartum and even made an incredible course to help you take your postpartum pelvic floor healing into your hands. Enjoy! Here is Rebecca's course, "Your Postpartum Pelvis": https://www.freebirthsociety.com/yourpostpartumpelvis Work with Rebecca here: https://www.fullcirclelouisville.com/ Tiffany's website: https://sacred-womb-doula.com/ Healing Birth Wounds: Guided Journal for Birth Trauma and Postpartum Integration - https://a.co/d/fxJXqZN

When we enter motherhood, there is an expectation that, “this is just how it is.” You're never going to get sleep, you're not going to be able to focus on yourself, good luck, “welcome to motherhood.” But what if we want something different for ourselves? Amelia Kriss is a Drama Therapist and Certified Coach in private practice in the Bay Area, California, where she lives with her husband and two powerhouse daughters.

Amelia Kriss is a Drama Therapist and Certified Coach in private practice in the Bay Area, California, where she lives with her husband and two powerhouse daughters. She works primarily with recovering people-pleasers and "Nice" girls who are ready to deconstruct self-shrinking patterns, and find more ease & joy. Amelia is also deeply committed to Birth Story Medicine work; helping birthing parents integrate, and move forward from, unresolved issues connected to the experience of giving birth.

She is deeply interested in the connection between our personal healing journeys and our collective liberation. What we discuss in this episode:Amelia shares her own postpartum journey and the moment her husband asked her how she was. Her answer surprised her and helps to frame her transition into motherhood.What it really means when we get the message after a birth that says "Mom and Baby are healthy and happy."Why it is so important to prepare birthing people for the psychological and spiritual identity changes that come with the physical experience of birth. Why the information preparing families have access to leans towards one of two extremes and why both sides are just not complete. "Most of us hold both sides; fear AND trust."Growing humans is a bad-ass thing and we are strong enough to think about, and prepare for, all potential outcomes.What it means to be "empowered" as a parent. You have life experiences you can draw on as you prepare for birth. And how birth is like going on a hike.Amelia shares about her Group Coaching program - how she designed and it and how it will help expectant parents.How society steers us wrong in birth and motherhood and why Redefining Motherhood exists. How motherhood is not a role or an archetype but an experience.Lynn shares the experience that jolted her out of "survival mode" in motherhood.Amelia connects for us that there is a level of death/change/rebirth that takes place in the transition into motherhood.

Pam England is the Founder and Director of Birth Story Medicine. When I was a young nurse-midwife, certified but not yet initiated by the power of birth itself, I used to teach 'fantasy birth' classes.  In labor, I had a profound awakening and vowed to tell the truth and to bring change to how women are prepared for birth. While on the cesarean operating table, I realized that the naive positivity and promises I believed (and taught) were the seed for my own rapidly manifesting emotional birth shock, trauma, and postpartum depression. I sought counseling from a midwife, cesarean support group, and therapist, but found only superficial listening. This prompted me to earn a Masters in Psychology /Counseling from Antioch University, with an emphasis on perinatal issues and group dynamics. Eight years of searching for answers and self-acceptance had passed since my initiation through birth; after meeting many teachers and authors and participating in conferences and ceremonies, I had a second epiphany which made me laugh out loud:   'All this time I thought I had to heal my birth, but now I see my birth healed me.'  Perhaps this was the pivotal moment I morphed from the seek to a wounded healer. Thus began Pam's now three-decade-long devotion to the study of emotional birth trauma and the development of the Birth Story Medicine philosophy and process that has helped many find their way "home" to self-acceptance and self-compassion following their initiation through childbirth or birth work. Following the publication of her best-selling book, Birthing From Within, Pam created a profound movement in multi-sensory, holistic, and mindful childbirth preparation and developed the concept of childbirth mentoring (versus teaching).

In this honest conversation, Jessika Marie unravels the notion that our identities must remain the same as we journey through life. In reconnecting with motherhood as a series of rites of passage, she noticed a new way of being start to emerge. Beyond both maidenhood and motherhood, Jessika created a community she calls the Mavenhood. Listen in on Ep. 034 as she reveals the inspiration behind this new archetypal stage. Within this container of solidarity, she also began to explore shadow work to better understand the unconscious parts of her personality. Jessika then created a movement-turned-online course called UnShame My Story to help others sift through the narratives that are holding them back.

Not everyone will necessarily need to work through their delivery narrative with someone else. But for those who experience trauma it can be a helpful tool.When people are unhappy with their birth it's generally not because of the specific course it took but rather because they hadn't anticipated the possibility of it deviating from what they envisioned. Even if you're sure of the birth you want, it's important to explore all possibilities. You can't control birth so the best thing you can do is educate yourself so you can be prepared.In this Episode, You'll Learn About:Why it's important to process your birth storyWhat a drama therapist doesHow to balance processing your birth story while staying in the present momentWhat you can do during your pregnancy to help shape your birth story to be more positiveHow our narratives about our birth stories affects us in the long termHow your opinion of your birth story can affect your opinion of yourselfWhat the most common reasons are that people seek counseling for their birthWhy it's important to acknowledge that not everything about parenting is great--Full website notes: drnicolerankins.com/episode221Check out The Birth Preparation CourseRegister for the class How to Create a Birth Plan the Right WayOur Sponsors:* Check out ByHeart and use my code DRNICOLE for 10% off your first order! - https://byheart.com/podcast* Check out Mabbly : https://lactationnetwork.com/* Check out Warner Bros: https://www.warnerbros.com/movies/the-color-purpleAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
