After dealing with unexpected mental health issues in 2020, Raena experienced some life-changing realizations. A pivotal moment for her was understanding that you don't need to be sensational in order to be loved - your constant need to prove your worthiness is absolutely unnecessary. From stepping back and taking a demotion at work, to re-defining how her marriage should look to better support her and her husband, Raena is on a mission to bring awareness to the scams surrounding motherhood, careers, childcare, and more.   In this episode, we cover:  The scam surrounding ‘working mom' and ‘mom guilt', and how they're connected to the larger, systemic problem women face The breakdown in Raena's marriage that led to her and her husband re-defining their marriage in ways that better supported them both The idea of women stepping into a supporting character role after marriage vs. the main character role they had before marriage Staying head-down and stuck in survival mode as moms  How Raena pushes back where she can in her HR role to better understand and support the people she works with Raena's increased capacity in her relationship with her kids + showing her kids they can really be themselves (without anyone else's permission) Raena's decision to shift and dramatically increase awareness about the Working Momtras, as well as co-found the Chamber of Mothers, after having her 3rd baby The insanely expensive entity that is childcare in the U.S. + the lack of investment in childcare in the U.S. compared to other countries   Connect with Raena: Follow on on Instagram @theworkingmomtras and @chamberofmothers Check out her websites: http://www.theworkingmomtras.comwww.chamberofmothers.com   Connect with Sarah: Follow on Instagram @mothercrafting Sign up for my newsletter Check out my website Make sure to hit subscribe/follow so you never miss an episode!

Raena Boston, Founder of the Chamber of Mothers and The Momtras, joined us to share her three birth experiences and the makings of motherhood. Raena's first pregnancy lead her down a new path for her family by choosing a birth center instead of a hospital. Her provider was off-putting and the idea of shifting to different providers within the practice helped her make the decision.The birth center experience with Baby Aksel was beautiful. She arrived at the birth center at 4 cm dilated after a night of laboring at home. Her husband, Travis, and their doula were supportive and helped her manage labor and delivery.Their second pregnancy would be a "happy accident" 10 months after their first son was born.  They chose to work with the birth center again. Baby Asher came a little over a week passed his estimated due date. Walking around the neighborhood was helpful but she had become anxious and tired of being pregnant. Not to mention managing a toddler through the last few days before the birth. True to form Raena arrived at the birth center 6cm dilated with the understanding of her body's needs helping direct her labor. The midwife was laid back and focused on ensuring Raena listened to her body and felt empowered through the process. Baby Asher was born shortly afterward with some concern as he arrived covered in meconiumAfter bringing two kids earthside Raena and Travis experienced a hard period in their marriage as they navigated how they would move forward together. 2021 would usher in another "happy accident" after they chose each other and worked on their relationship. This pregnancy and birth would be during the pandemic. They wanted to use the birth center again. The initial prenatal appointment was different, as discussions about her BMI became an issue. The nurse mentioned her race and BMI as reasons they needed to take more measures,including a daily aspirin and early screening for gestational diabetes, despite never having a medical history of high blood pressure or gestational diabetes. Raena attempted to address her concerns about how she was being treated; she regrets not listening to her gut. The mask mandate was rescinded in Florida; the practice also stopped requiring mask-wearing due to the pressure of other patients who didn't want to wear the masks. During a 38-week appointment, Raena was handed a packet for her appointment and a slip of paper fell out that read "BMI-out of bounds". She was instantly triggered by this and started to feel agitated. She then had a high blood pressure reading that led to a conversation that would make a major shift in her pregnancy. Raena's blood pressure continued to get higher as the days passed. She and Travis had started conversing about switching to a homebirth with another midwife. Her blood pressure reached 174/106; they planned to go to the hospital.Transitioning their birth plan was mentally challenging but after getting settled into the idea that she would stay at the hospital. Raena was able to maintain a decent BP without continuous high readings. They started an induction when Raena was ready, as she wanted a different doctor on call. The staff at the hospital was mindful that the hospital was not her first choice and worked with her through her options. The environment wasn't ideal; she pushed through her expectations. The intensity was high and the doctor wanted to break her water. She felt unheard and over-talked during labor. Raena pushed their baby out, and Travis announced the sex. They were on a high as they acknowledged that they had survived a challenging season in marriage and were proud of themselves as a couple.Processing her last birth has shed light on the lessons learned; like paying attention when people and places have changed or that you have changed and know you need something different. Listen to the wisdom of your body. Self-advocacy can be learned the hard way or we can pick it up from those who came before us. You don't have to be a model patient. Raena vows to never, ever abandon herself again.Resources:The Working Momtras | community of affirmations, stories, and connection - through the lens of motherhoodChamber of Mothers | a nonprofit focusing on uniting mothers as advocates to America's priorities on mothers' rights

This week we are chatting with Raena Boston, founder of The Working Momtras, about the power of knowing ourselves, celebrating our unique gifts and conferring our gifts to the world. Raena vulnerably opens up regarding her quest to know herself as she found herself experiencing a spiritual awakening coinciding with her entrance into motherhood and letting go of the old ways - or outdated behaviors and patterns - that have hindered her ability to embrace herself as she is. Raena invites us into her awareness recognizing her achievement oriented personality and the struggle to assess who she is when she is not working toward whatever is next. She opens up about dismissing her sensitivity and we witness her make connections regarding how her desire to be 'tough' corresponds to her ability to 'achieve'.  In this moment, she shares with us her ahas and we feel her shifting into a more embodied space knowing her worth and unique gifts outside of however such is expressed out in the world. Join us as Raena reminds us we are each worthy as we are and there is nothing extraordinary we must achieve to be deserving of love.
