This week on Birthing the New I open up about the end of my pregnancy and how preparing for this second birth has been a very different experience than the first time I was pregnant.
While releasing the Conception Stories episodes (Part 1 and Part 2 ) over the past few weeks — the number one question I’ve been getting is “How are you feeling?”
And honestly, I’m feeling pretty great overall!
I’ve been reflecting a lot on how I want this birth to go differently than my first 50 hour long arduous labor — while also surrendering and trusting that I’ll be able to handle any scenario.
My client, Alex, recently shared her own redemptive birth story that inspired me to release expectations around how I want this birth to be different. And instead I’m leaning into the ways that I know it will be. Because I am different.

Big Hugs,
P.S I’m currently on maternity leave — soaking in this sacred season. And yet… my business is still running. Clients are still joining. Money is still flowing in. My medicine is serving the world.
How? Because I’ve built it that way — with the same somatic practices and soul-aligned strategy I’ll teach you inside The Empress Circle. Join Empress here.
