The Happy Birthway Podcast

24. Shifting Perspectives on the "Right" Way to Birth


Listen Later

Simcha's birth unfolded in a way that challenged many of her beliefs about birth. She used this perspective shift as a source of growth and an opportunity for connection with G-d. Despite lots of curveballs thrown her way, Simcha emerged from her birth with feelings of empowerment and being cared for. Postpartum, however, triggered some dormant anxiety, which propelled her to let go of shame and seek professional support. She bares her story with humility and bravery, creating purpose from her struggles. You can find her chronicling her life on Instagram: @gentle_jew.
