Summary
Today I am bringing you a very special episode with my dear friend and one of my mentors, Elder Midwife Sister Morningstar. Sister Morningstar played a big part in last year’s Matriarch Rising Festival, and this conversation was actually recorded for the Virtual Matriarch Rising Festival Bundle that we offered in the fall of 2022! In this episode, Sister brings us a much-needed, mother-centered perspective on the sacred first moments of a newborns life. We get into the do’s and don’ts of neonatal resuscitation, what is needed to protect the health and wellbeing of motherbaby, and how to get back in touch with our wild, primal nature.
