Arianna — mother, birthkeeper, HJ grad, and wise woman — joins Brooke on the podcast today to talk her journey in birthwork and motherhood, the ways she has served and learned in each season thereof, and about a subject she’s especially passionate about these days: community building. 

Here are some of the topics that came up in our conversation: 

• Honoring cycles and seasons
• Well-rounded birth work
• Motherhood and Birthwork: Can it Be Done? (a piece written by Arianna)
• Hearthmother Journey
• How we got to such a state of disconnection in our society
• Why community is as essential to wellness as good food, clean air, and hydration
• the ways that having babies — especially if you make “alternative” birth and parenting choices — can increase isolation
• Healthy boundaries around consumption on social media
• The upside of the algorithms
• The embodied craving for community
• Hunt, Gather, Parent
• It Didn’t Start with You
• Why in-person is better than virtual when it comes to building community
• How to Form a Sister Circle
