This is the first time that Amy has shared her birth journey and is doing so in front of a live audience in Miami. Amy teaches yoga and prepared for a homebirth that led to a hospital transport and a cesarean section.
Please stick around for the BONUS: Behind the Scenes (we recorded this bit after the live episode) where we talk in detail about the discussion that is not happening - but needs to happen - about how strong ab muscles (dancers, pilates, yoginis) can hinder the cardinal movements of the baby and could possibly lead to a surgical birth.
