Summary

The birth process is a miracle, but not fail-proof. As awareness around all the issues that face Black mothers continues to grow so does access to resources and information to help make the process less intimidating. Enter Nicole Bailey, a childbirth educator, doula, and author of Body Belly Soul: A Black Mother’s Guide to a Primal, Peaceful, Powerful Birth. In this episode, Nicole joins Terri and Dr. Dom to offer expert guidance on how Black mothers can cultivate a community to help them navigate and advocate for their needs during every phase of pregnancy.
