Welcome to this episode of SelfKind with Erica Webb! Today, I'm thrilled to be talking with Surabhi Veitch. Surabhi is a Physiotherapist and Pregnancy & Postpartum Coach. She has two of her own little ones, and works to inspire birthing people to learn to trust their own bodies again.
We chat about pregnancy and postpartum, and the societal messaging we receive that leads to distrust and burnout for new mums. Surabhi shares her philosophy when working with clients, and how important self care and a support system are to healing and feeling whole.
In this episode, you'll hear:
—How Surabhi is breaking the cycle in her own life of the expectation that women are here to serve others.
—Why Surabhi decided to open her own physiotherapy and coaching business, her approach to care, and how her philosophy differs from many others in the field.
—Insight about why we’re so disconnected from our intrinsic abilities, and how our connection to our bodies can help rebuild some of that intuitive trust again.
—Why it’s important for Surabhi to share her own real experience with postpartum challenges.
—The importance of finding a supportive care provider with whom you feel comfortable enough asking questions as well as building a community that aligns with the changes you want to make in your life.
Tune in to hear the full conversation and please connect with both Surabhi and Erica to share your thoughts.
