What if everything we thought we knew about birth was missing the most important perspective - the baby’s?

In today’s episode, Karen sits down with renowned neonatal resuscitation instructor and midwife Karen Strange, whose groundbreaking work has reshaped how more than 17,000 birth professionals understand newborns, birth physiology, and the imprinting that happens in the earliest moments of life.

 With over three decades of experience, Karen Strange brings a trauma-informed, baby-centered lens to birth - one that reveals the innate blueprint inside every baby, the sequence nature designed, and what happens when it’s interrupted.

Tune in to hear:

• The embryological blueprint and sequence every baby follows
• Pausing at birth and honoring newborn pacing
• How prenatal stress shapes a baby’s nervous system
• Why repair matters more than rupture
• What babies remember and communicate through their bodies
• How to support newborns after a difficult birth
• Physiologic transition and first breaths
• Why doulas should know neonatal resuscitation
• The simplicity of what saves lives in birth emergencies
• Tools for connecting with your baby in pregnancy and beyond
