She reflects on her own feelings of vulnerability during labor, delivery, and the postpartum period, encouraging listeners to consider how their patients feel during these critical times. The episode calls for a reframe in how we approach and support individuals in obstetrical care, highlighting the need for compassion and respect for their experiences.
