Pearls of wisdom is a series of The Birth Journeys Podcast, where I highlight some of the most profound thoughts that each mother has shared with me. It is so powerful for birthing people to hear from others who have been through the metamorphosis of motherhood. And it is so important for women to have a voice in this process.
In this episode, mothers reflect on postpartum support, and emotional and physical healing. We hear from Ellie Goldstein, Ashley Webb, Megan MacCutcheon, Megan Castanien, Jennifer Byrnes, Emily Finnell, Sacha Han, and Charlie Marshall.
