Birth is often framed as something to endure rather than embrace, but what if we could shift that narrative? This week, we’re joined by the incredible Bernadette Lack—renowned midwife, birth educator, and founder of Core and Floor Restore—who is on a mission to help women feel strong, informed, and empowered throughout pregnancy, birth, and beyond.
In this powerful conversation, B shares her deeply personal journey, from struggling with incontinence post-birth to becoming a leading advocate for women’s health and birth trauma awareness. With wisdom and warmth, she unpacks the nuances of childbirth and postpartum recovery, shedding light on the physical, emotional, and societal factors that shape a woman's experience.
We dive into the often-overlooked realities of birth trauma, how it manifests, and why it’s crucial to acknowledge and address it. B also highlights the incredible role of oxytocin and the parasympathetic nervous system in fostering a positive birth experience and explains how we can better support women during this transformative time.
From the impact of intergenerational trauma to the importance of understanding our menstrual cycles, this episode is a rich exploration of the many ways women can reclaim their power in motherhood. If you’re navigating pregnancy, postpartum, or simply want to better understand the innate strength of the female body, this conversation is for you.
Join us for an inspiring, eye-opening episode that reminds us of the power, resilience, and wisdom that lie within every mother.
