It’s not enough for the goal to be to keep mom and baby alive. We should aim for experiences that allow mothers to thrive to set her up better for her own wellbeing and taking care of her child(ren). -Mikala

Mikala has a strong, beautiful passion for birth culture and the well being of Mothers and their children before, during and after childbirth. In today’s episode she finds herself in the special position of being able to put passion into action when a friend asks her for her calming presence in the labor and delivery room. Ironically in doing so, she discovers what she was born to do. There is no going back after this one. This is THE one. If you only ever listen to one of our episodes, make sure it is this one.
