Summary

It’s a sad but true fact that the current culture of care for pregnant women needs improvement.

If you’ve been following me for any period of time, you know I’m passionate about educating women on their options, and always encourage you to educate yourself and be prepared.

My guest on this week’s episode of the podcast is Rebecca Dekker, the founder of Evidence Based Birth. Like me, she’s passionate about ensuring women have the knowledge, tools, and education to have a great experience giving birth.

This interview is definitely a must listen to for any pregnant woman, whether you’re a first time mom, or you’ve had kids but are pregnant now. The knowledge you’ll gain is immeasurable!

And if you’re a childbirth educator or doula, she shares some information regarding how she built Evidence Based Birth that I know you’ll find helpful.

Listen in to this episode as Rebecca shares how Evidence Based Birth got its start, why she does what she does, and her top tips for pregnant women.

If you still have questions after listening in to this episode, I would love for you to check out my website. There are so many resources for you there! You can access my website by clicking here.
