In this episode, I’m joined by Emmy Robbin, a Birth Trauma Recovery Coach, Somatic EMDR practitioner and HBAC (home birth after c-section) Mom from Austin, Texas.

What do pregnancy, birth and medical freedom have to do with sobriety? It turns out, a lot.

Emmy’s wisdom gained through her own birth stories (first a traumatic c-section, then a redemptive HBAC) is invaluable for sober women desiring an autonomous, self-empowered birth experience.

Tune in for story medicine and practical wisdom on:

  • Emmy’s two birth stories
  • birth as a natural, physiological event (not an inherently dangerous, medical event)
  • red flags to look for when choosing a birth attendant and/or medical practitioner during pregnancy
  • the importance of healing personal and generational birth trauma, Emmy’s offerings as a coach and Birth Keeper

My audio muted toward the end of recording, so the last 10 minutes of this episode conclude with Emmy’s powerful words of encouragement.
