EP18 - Birth, Postpartum Care & Ritual in Motherhood with Tanya Heinrich & Michelle Combridge
In this episode of the Holistic Woman Podcast Kate sits in conversation with Postpartum Care Providers Tanya Heinrich & Michelle Combridge.
Both of these incredible women offer loving support and guidance to mothers as they thrive through their maternal continuum.
In this episode, we delve into:
The Interconnectedness of Motherhood: The continuum of fertility, pregnancy, birth, and postpartum are intricately interwoven. Our guests explore how their work embraces the postpartum experience, acknowledging it as a pivotal time for mothers as rites of passage.
The importance of Mother-Centered Care and its absence in modern Western culture. They highlight the significance of focusing on the well-being and empowerment of mothers throughout their journey.
Empowered Birth: The term "empowered birth" is widely discussed, but what does it truly entail? What it means to embrace the power and autonomy of women during the birthing process.
The Impact of Postpartum on Motherhood: The postpartum period profoundly shapes a woman's journey as a mother. Tanya and Michelle discuss the impact this phase has and how embracing this season with love and care can be transformational.
The importance of Ritual and finding moments to acknowledge the significant rites of passage a woman transitions through from pregnancy to postpartum.
