Let’s be honest—birth doesn’t always go the way we planned.

And even when we can say, “Mom and baby are healthy!”—there’s often still something underneath the surface we haven’t fully unpacked.

Maybe it’s guilt. Maybe it’s regret.
Maybe it’s a questioned “what if” you haven’t said out loud.

Today’s episode is pulled from a live workshop I hosted inside The Cultivate Crew, and from the moment we hit record, I knew it needed to live here on the podcast too. The guest you’ll hear from is Dee—nurse, doula, and founder of Birth Story Now and Zen—and she is a true gift to postpartum moms everywhere.

In the episode, Dee walks us through what birth story healing actually looks like, why so many of us still carry unspoken pain from our births, and how powerful it is to name the moment that’s still lingering.

This conversation has deeply impacted how I’ve processed my most recent birth experience—especially after being separated from my son after delivery—and I’m hopeful it’ll support many of you, too.

So, If you’ve ever wondered why you still feel “off” about your birth… or if you’re preparing for your next and hoping to feel more peace… this episode is for you.
