    Maryn Green has been attending women as a midwife since 2009; first as a licensed midwife and now as a spiritual midwife that helps facilitate the ceremonies of birth and mothering for aligned women.   Maryn is well known for her international association, the Indie Birth Association (indiebirth.org), which serves and educates women and midwives all over the world. She has written hundreds of blog posts about pregnancy, birth, midwifery as a spiritual process, radical birth and mothering and recorded almost 300 episodes of her podcast, “Taking Back Birth" that encourage women and midwives to rethink what they have been taught, and re-connect with ancient wisdom and the spiritual journey of it all.  Maryn co-founded the Indie Birth Midwifery School (indiebirthmidwiferyschool.org) in 2017 in order to help create more radical midwives and released her first book, Indie Birth: A Story of Radical Birth Love in 2019. Maryn has been taught by witnessing hundreds of undisturbed births, the best of which have been the births of her own 10 children.   She currently lives in Hawai'i and thrives on ocean walks with her dogs.  Links indiebirth.org Indiebirthmidwiferyschool.org sacredsisterhooddoula.org  Instagram : @indiebirth Rumble: “Midwives Gone Wild” -Full podcast archive is indiebirth.org/podcastarchive  Maryn’s Body Wisdom Sessions: indiebirth.org/bodyhttps://www.amazon.com/Indie-Birth-Story-Radical-Love/

    EPISODE 73 Journey Through Motherhood: Embracing Growth with Nicole

    In this podcast, join a conversation with Nicole, a dedicated mother to the endlessly entertaining toddler Mackenzie and wife to John. Residing in Turangi after relocating from Bulls last year, Nicole currently works as a nurse in a bustling GP practice, while her husband is employed by Genesis as a maintainer operator. Nicole's passion for maternal mental health stems from personal experience, recognizing that even the most resilient and supported individuals can encounter challenges with postpartum anxiety and depression. Alongside her husband John, Nicole actively contributes to their community through involvement in organizations such as fire and emergency services, St John Ambulance, and the Turangi Toy Library. Motherhood, as Nicole shares, is a profound experience of love and transformation, where the joy of raising children often coincides with a sense of personal loss. She emphasizes the importance of rediscovering one's identity beyond motherhood, while acknowledging the immense rewards it brings. Nicole's message resonates with all mothers: it's okay to miss your former self as long as you embrace personal growth. By accepting support, mothers can excel in their roles. In a world that can be stressful and unkind, Nicole advocates for teaching kindness to children, empowering them to create positive change. Tune in to explore Nicole's insights on motherhood, mental health, community engagement, and the journey of personal growth amidst the joys and challenges of raising a family. This podcast offers a heartfelt exploration of the multifaceted aspects of modern motherhood.
