In this episode, I sit down with my longtime friend Carson Meyer to talk about her beautiful new book, Growing Together: Doula Wisdom and Holistic Practices for Pregnancy, Birth, and Early Motherhood. We reflect on our own journeys into motherhood and dive into the inspiration behind Carson’s work as a doula, writer, and advocate for women navigating pregnancy and postpartum.

 

Carson shares how she was first drawn to birth work, her experience writing a deeply personal book while becoming a mother herself, and why reframing the way we view birth is so important. We talk about the power of choice in pregnancy, how to feel more empowered in your care, and the evolving role of partners in the birth space today.

This conversation is filled with insights about honoring your intuition, creating supportive birth environments, and embracing the transformation that comes with becoming a parent. Whether you’re pregnant, postpartum, or simply curious about this path, Carson’s perspective offers both grounding and inspiration. Get her book here: https://amzn.to/4jgKP1O (edited)
