EP 29. The Hidden Truth About Birth: What Doctors Won’t Tell You!

🔍 Episode Summary:

Is the modern medical system failing women during childbirth? Are hospitals pushing unnecessary C-sections for profit? In this must-listen episode, we uncover the hidden truths about birth that doctors don’t want you to know. Our guest, Jomina Joseph, a seasoned birth and postpartum doula, takes us deep into the world of holistic and traditional birthing practices. She shares why Black women face the highest maternal mortality rates, how the industrialization of birth has stripped women of their rights, and the critical role doulas play in advocating for safer, empowering birth experiences. We also dive into the controversial history of midwifery, why home births are on the rise, the essential patient rights every woman should know, and the secret postpartum recovery practices that help women heal faster (belly binding & vaginal steaming included!). This conversation is raw, real, and necessary—because when it comes to childbirth, knowledge is power.
