This show is about birth, vaginas, bacteria, seeding and all things “taboo”. When is it right to trust the mainstream medical advice and when is it best to trust your intuition? What kind of birth do YOU want to have that is right for you?  How to uphold your authority in labour. Education is power! The journey into motherhood is perhaps one of the most sacred, misunderstood rites of passage a woman can experience. In this episode, Helen Shackleton shares her personal unfolding – from the power of birth and the shift in identity, to the deepening of love, the rise of intuition, and what it means to mother in a time of awakening and overwhelm.
