More About Kristin Revere: Kristin Revere is a woman who has always had a passion for supporting other women, both personally and professionally. In college, Kristin served on the Executive Committee of her sorority and organized events on campus related to breast cancer and other women's issues. She later facilitated nonpartisan political trainings for female candidates and volunteered for many nonprofits focused on women's issues. Kristin firmly believes in the power that lies within a woman and has spent her life drawing it out of the women she surrounds herself with. After the birth of her daughter in 2011, a new passion awoke within her. Kristin began reading and studying birth from all perspectives, philosophies, and medical approaches. She joined organizations like the Healthy Kent Breastfeeding Coalition and used her event coordinating skills to build and promote the organization and create community awareness. Kristin's research led her to learn about doulas, and in 2012 she hired doulas herself for the support of her second birth. The level of compassionate care and comfort that she received from her doulas ignited a spark within Kristin that led her to the path of becoming a doula herself. She earned her certification and began teaching Sacred Pregnancy classes in 2013, but as you'll see Kristin is a firm believer in achieving the highest level of education available when providing a service. Shortly after, she earned the following credentials. Certified Sacred Doula in 2014 Certified Elite Labor Doula through ProDoula in 2015 Certified Elite Postpartum and Infant Care Doula through ProDoula in 2016 Trained in Spinning Babies in 2020 Newborn Care Specialist through Newborn Care Solutions Mothership Certified Health Service Provider Certified VBAC Academy Pro Certified Transformational Birth Coach through Birth Coach Method Certified Pregnancy and Infant Loss Advocate (PAIL) 2022 Certified Gift Registry Expert through Be Her Village 2023 Kristin's main passion as a birth and postpartum doula is to offer women and families resources, unbiased support, and understanding. Kristin is a listener, a friend, a confidant, an expert, and women intuitively feel stronger in her presence. She has a Bachelor of Science in Journalism from Central Michigan University and a Master of Management in Marketing from Aquinas College. Kristin is the host of Ask the Doulas Podcast. Her writing has been featured in Rapid Growth Media and First Time Parent Magazine. Kristin was selected as one of the 50 Most Influential Women in West Michigan by the Grand Rapids Business Journal in 2016 and in 2022. Kristin and the rest of the Revere Clan, which includes her husband, her step-daughter, and her two children, live in Grand Rapids and can be found taking in the sights at local art galleries, parks, music concerts, and community events.

Samira Mehta discusses how words like “sacred,” “ensoulment,” “mother,” and “baby” have been used by both sides of the culture war over reproductive rights and how they have changed our perception of pregnancy.

Author Ann W. Duncan describes the “sacred pregnancy movement” and examines three major organizations involved. Their services range from sacred belly painting in luxurious retreat settings to helping process pregnancy loss.

Michelle and Donna Seegers Abler, Pediatric Occupational Therapist, Pregnancy & Newborn Consultant, and Prenatal and Perinatal Psychology Educator, discuss the awareness and consciousness of babies. Donna shares amazing stories from her experience with babies in NICU. Together they explore how birth can impact babies and the implications of some of the protocols and practices within the medical system. Donna provides suggestions for parents to help support their baby in the NICU. Donna also shares about her new book, "Love me In: A Sacred Pregnancy Journal" which reflects leading-edge principles from the field of prenatal and perinatal psychology. It is a beautifully written and illustrated journal that guides expecting parents inward on a conscious journey through reflection, meditation, and heart-based practices. It is intended to empower self-connection to grow and nurture a healthy womb environment, giving babies their best start."As expecting parents, we have the power to go back to our innate spiritual selves and be a part of this bringing babies in, in a more complete way." —Donna Seegers AblerNotes:"In a different paper published by the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (or RCOG, the United Kingdom's equivalent of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, or ACOG), they stated that it is possible induction may decrease the risk of stillbirth in older women. Using data from the United Kingdom, the authors estimated that if all pregnant people in the U.K. age 40 and older were induced at 39 weeks instead of 41 weeks, it would prevent 17 stillbirths per year. It would take 9,350 inductions at 39 weeks to prevent one stillbirth, and 4,750 inductions at 40 weeks to prevent seven stillbirths. (RCOG, 2013)."  Evidence Based Birthhttps://evidencebasedbirth.com/advanced-maternal-age/ About Donna Seegers Abler:Donna Seegers Abler, OTR/L, PPNE, earned a BS in occupational therapy from Mount Mary University in Milwaukee, WI in 1984.  She graduated from APPPAH Prenatal and Perinatal Psychology Certification Program in June 2019.  She is a prenatal and perinatal psychology educator and is a trained instructor in Calm Birth Childbirth Program.She has a background in preterm neonatal intensive care unit experience and infant development and combines years of researched-based medical background in sensory integration, reflex integration, neurodevelopment, infant massage, and Healing Touch for Babies with leading-edge prenatal and perinatal psychology,  heart rhythm meditation, and healing practices.Donna has been shaped through her own in utero experience and birth story; through consciously conceiving, carrying and miscarrying a baby; through raising three beautiful and thriving young adult daughters; through an expansive professional career; and through a rich life journey as a daughter, sister, aunt, mother, wife, soul sister, guide, teacher and friend to many. Connect with Donna Seegers Abler:Website: https://www.donnaseegersabler.com/Facebook: @Donna Seegers AblerInstagram:   @donnaseegersablerConnect with Michelle Smith:Classes with Michelle: birtheaseservices.com/birth-ease-childbirth-education, birtheasehypnobirth.com/hypnobirthing-classes-orlando-michelleFacebook:   Birth Ease,   The Birth Ease Podcast,  Birth Ease Baby Loss SupportInstagram:    @birtheasemichellesmith,  @birtheaselossssupportYouTube:    Birth EaseLinkedIn:  Birth Ease Michelle SmithWebsite:  BirthEaseServices.com  birtheasehypnobirth.com Thank you for listening!

Leubgythe (Nancy) Holm, Ph.D. https://www.welcomeyourgenius.com/ From Her website: While I have multiple degrees of the higher education variety (Ph.D., M.A., and B.A.) and am passionate about learning, there are other life experiences and trainings I consider at least as important. A sampling of a few: Anglo-Saxon Spiritual Apprenticeship, Elder Initiation in Dagara Tribal Tradition (Elder Malidoma Some'), Birthing From Within Trainings, and more. My coaching work is about connecting or reconnecting you to your own genius and/or that of your child even from preconception or very early pregnancy. Current scientific research supports what indigenous peoples have known over thousands of year. Babies are conscious from pre-conception through the birth experience. There are windows of opportunity throughout the circle of life that can, if supported, facilitate the deepening of meaning and fulfillment. We either move toward life or death. Re-visioning these for today, we can choose life, meaning, and hope.
