Summary

Nicole joins me on the show today sharing her 3 birth stories, ending with the redemptive story of her FBAC, (a freebirth after c-section). After Nicole’s midwives sabotaged her homebirth and coerced her into a traumatic c-section, Nicole was left heartbroken and feeling entirely inadequate to enter motherhood.

For her second birth she turned to the same midwives and while she did have her baby at home, she was once again violated by the very women who she hired to support her.

Through her own discovery and internal work, she got pregnant for the third time and knew it was time to claim the birth of her dreams, without looking to anyone else.

Nicole articulates the power of what happens when there is no one there to outsource, and you just pick up your baby and become…well, enough. You become whole. You become a truly embodied mother.
