Welcome to the Simplify Birth & Motherhood Podcast where you get Clarity to empower your birth and motherhood journey with Amanda. In this episode, I am sharing who I am, where I come from, and how I started from a first-time SAHM, to birth advocate, to a childbirth educator, to private coach, and mom-mentor.
In the years of my experience of being pregnant, a young first-time mother, birth advocate, and teaching childbirth education, I have heard the same statements such as, "I wish I had known.." or "I didn't even know that was an option for me and/or for my child!" over and over again. I also quickly realized that the knowledge of the basics for pregnancy, child6birth, postpartum, and the early years of motherhood are completely unknown, have been overcomplicated, and have been lost, leaving mothers feeling unsupported and forced to just go with the normal, not for what is healthy and right.
We are not all given the road map to motherhood and often times we are not given any well-rounded information or tools for our pregnancies, for childbirth, for postpartum and to set us up for success in the first few years of our motherhood journey. This is why I am here! this is where my passion for you is rooted! - because knowledge can be your power!
In this episode:
- Where this passion all started for me.
- My own personal journey as a mother.
- How I taught myself how to make informed decisions.
- What I currently do for mothers who are pregnant, who are going into childbirth, preparing for postpartum, and how important knowing what our mom gut is guiding us to do in our motherhood journey.
- Why knowing what the fruits of our informed decisions is important.
- Why and how I am here for you.
