About the Episode:

Join us as we go back and relive each of our birth stories, one by one. We reflect on how different each birth is and how we always learn something new at every birth we are fortunate enough to be present for. We cover home births and surgical birth, we go through all the feelings and all the memories. Birth stories can be empowering and connecting. As Birth Workers, we NEVER tire of dissecting and honouring every birth story.The telling and retelling is a powerful tool of connection and understanding. Come along for the ride!
