The Heart of the Soul with Amana

This is a free flow Solo episode about using the BRAIN tool in pregnancy & birth, I hope that these tips and stories leave you feeling more able to advocate for yourself & your baby, asking questions and not accepting the status quo.  Use the Acronym B.R.A.I.N to help you ask the right questions when engaging with the medical system & the Industry created around Birthing. 

B: Benefits: What are the Benefits?

R: Risks: What are the Risks?

A: Alternatives: What are the Alternatives?

I: Intuition/Information: What does my Intuition say? Do I Want/Need More Information?

N: Now: Must this be done NOW? Or Can it Wait? 

• I share why I use this tool when interacting with Medical Providers of all kinds • How it might be helpful to you in multiple settings. Remember YOU make your own decisions. I am NOT giving medical advice in this episode.

Happy New Moon You Beautiful Soul! Here is a short quote from Chani's New Moon Guide: "the New Moon in Leo wants you to set bold intentions when it comes to your radiance, vitality, and that “special something” you bring to the rest of us. Dare to be the drama the world needs now. Radiate your star quality. Recommit to making your creative talents manifest in the world." This is a beautiful free flow conversation with the dynamic duo & best friend team of Spokane Birth Resources: Amanda & Rachel. What do we talk about?Birth, Death, working as Registered Nurses, Journalism, Learning, Schooling, building Community, Herbalism & more.   Connect with Rachel & Amanda:Website: Spokane Birth ResourcesInstagram: @spokanebirthresourcesFacebook: SBRPodcast: Spokane Birth Integrity

Happy New Moon! 

This is an incredible episode with Radical Birth Keeper, Mother & Licensed Midwife Sophia Henderson. We recorded this episode on February 25th 2022. She shares with us her path into Licensed Midwifery & then into the role of Authentic Midwife.

Watch this conversation on YouTube @AmanaBeLove

Sophia shares her personal birth and postpartum experiences which include her son's journey with physical differences like Tetralogy of Fallot and Vacterl She openly speaks about the complex birth of her daughter who was breech upon arrival to the hospital, how she turned her daughter, choosing a c section, her daughter struggling to survive after birth, the medical team giving up on her daughter and how a chiropractor made an adjustment that brought her daughter off of all life support machines. 

Check out the Born Wild podcast episode Sophia mentions during our interview where she speaks to the chiropractor that assisted her daughter when the medical team had told her "there is nothing else we can do." Connect with Sophia:
