    Cesarean Birth after Midwife Labor and Birth Plan, Barnes's Birth Story

    Welcome back to the show! I'm ready to tell this birth story—my son is turning seven! Do I wish we could have had a different birth experience together and I could have had a kinder start to my motherhood? Yes, I do. However, the foundation laid during this unique birth story is the foundation upon which I built my entire motherhood. I would not be who I am without this birth story, from the challenges and despair it created to the triumph and love it fostered in my relationship with my son. Please share this story if it could speak to another mother.

    Seeing Food as Medicine with Jamie Javed, RN, BSN + Transformational Health Coach

    Welcome to the show! Today we are sitting down and pulling up a chair with Jamie Javed, RN, BSN + Transformational Health Coach. Jamie had an 8-year career as a nurse in the ER + Critical Care Unit prior to her journey today. She got to experience what the gift of Western medicine can do, but then realized, alongside her husband who is a critical care physician, that there was no instruction for preventing disease and instilling health in the medical model. Today, she lives in California with her 3 children and husband as they put down new roots for the next chapter in their holistic healing journey. Here's a peek at what's inside:  This show is all about lessening the need for traditional medicine, taking the power back as you transform your relationship to your own health, and what goes into the identity change to make shifts like these possible.  It's about having the courage to be that woman who goes first and being an example for what health is which includes developing healthy patterns in your life.  Let's dive in!

    BONUS EPISODE: The Vulnerability of Being Seen In Your New Way

    Welcome to back to the show for this Bonus Episode all about the real real of the vulnerability of being seen in your new way when you make a shift or change. You might be putting yourself in a new place or even just refreshing what you have, and you can get locked up by straddling the line of old and new.  As a brand and business educator, I work with the tender-shoot-dream space with my clients and creatives who are needing support in navigating where they are to where they want to go.  The truth is it's totally normal to feel awkward in your newness. We see so many outwardly positive, happy examples of risk-taking,  but risk-taking doesn't always happen from a mountaintop moment. I personally was in a very low place when I had the awareness and clarity that I needed to make changes. Let's jump in!   Links:  UNLOCKED Free Live Event on March 15th - Join us!
