Ep19 - Nurturing Mental Wellness: Empowering Mothers to Thrive Beyond Birth Trauma with Stefanie Poole

Welcome to another enlightening episode of The Holistic Woman Podcast. In this episode Kate was joined by incredible guest, Stefanie Poole, a dedicated Counsellor, doula, consultant, and speaker who brings innovative, holistic support to birthing families with a keen focus on mental and emotional well-being. Stefanie is the visionary behind Kindred Clubhouse and Mumma Bees & Co., two nurturing spaces that echo her deep passion for empowering women in their journey through motherhood.

In this powerful conversation we cover:

  • Stefanie opens up about the profound season she finds herself in, and how she purposefully embraces moments of acknowledgment and celebration. With a heartfelt commitment to helping mums not just survive, but truly thrive, Stefanie shares the roots of her impactful work and why it's imperative for women to feel supported as they navigate the transformative season of motherhood.

  • One of the most enchanting aspects of Stefanie's work is the concept of the Hive, a safe haven where women connect, share their stories, and find solace in a nurturing community. Stefanie delves into the inspiration behind the Hive and its symbolic significance, drawing parallels to the industrious honeybee and the powerful unity it represents.

  • Mental Wellness: Beyond the Absence of Illness: Stefanie passionately emphasizes that mental wellness transcends the mere absence of illness. She eloquently articulates the profound spectrum of emotions and experiences women encounter as they journey through the birth portal and gracefully transition into the sacred realm of postpartum and motherhood.

  • Unveiling Birth Trauma Healing: A focal point of Stefanie's transformative work lies in supporting women through birth trauma, using birth debriefing as a gateway to open conversations, process experiences, and pave the way for healing. Stefanie sheds light on the empowering process of birth debriefing and its role in helping women navigate their unique birthing journeys.
