Reclaim your autonomy in the delivery room. You have the right to say NO in your birth!
In this episode, Trish discusses the critical importance of maintaining autonomy during pregnancy and birth.
She challenges the societal norm where strong, capable, pregnant women defer to healthcare authorities without question, emphasizing the need for women to be informed, ask questions, and confidently make decisions about their birth experience.
She underscores the importance of practicing autonomy during prenatal appointments to build confidence for labor and delivery.
Trish highlights the benefits of her online birth classes, designed to empower expecting mothers by providing them with the knowledge and tools necessary to navigate labor confidently.
“ I am so passionate about changing this birth culture, not just for you guys, but for my own daughters, for my daughter-in-laws, because I don't want you guys to go through what I had happened to me and what I've seen thousands of women go through - we can't do this anymore. We have to stand up and bring that power into the birth room.” - Trish
Tune in for tips on how to advocate for yourself and transform your birth story into a powerful, positive birth experience.
