In this episode we invite you to think more about what it means to create community spaces that are powered by culturally responsive care.
How do we build trust within them, and how we build trust within ourselves, as we contemplate the changes that happen in our bodies, through pregnancy and postpartum, how we connect with what we want and need.
How do we understand our feeding choices, how we think about food for our babies and ourselves?
And why it is so important to tune in and be aware of cultural differences? Why do we need more representation throughout perinatal care across the spectrum of all of the different roles within it?
We need more representation, we need more folks who have different lived experiences who can offer racially and culturally congruent care who have a shared ancestral practices to uplift and support folks. To bring all of these topics together and share their wisdom on the subject is the wonderful Shalini Shah.
Welcome to this conversation as we dive into all of this and think about how we create perineal care environments that are supportive, open, and welcoming for all.
Join us as we discuss:
~Uplifting BIPOC birthworkers

~Eliminating shame in feeding journeys
~Body image & changes through pregnancy & postpartum
