  • 88.How to Mentally Prepare for the Birth You Actually Want (Even After Trauma)
    May 8 2025

    This conversation with Misty Rauscher was 🔥

    She is a Trauma Recovery Coach and Transformational Life Coach. Misty specializes in mindset, visualization, and helping people navigate the mental “what ifs” that often come up after difficult or traumatic birth experiences.

    In this episode, we explore how Misty helps people “clear the slate” from previous births and create a powerful, grounded vision for their next experience — in both pregnancy and postpartum.

    Whether you’re preparing for a VBAC or simply wanting to feel more at peace with your story, this conversation will leave you feeling seen, empowered, and inspired to claim your healing.

    Highlights from this episode:
    🔥 How trauma from previous births shows up mentally and emotionally in future pregnancies
    🔥 Why mindset and visualization are essential tools for preparing for birth
    🔥 Misty’s process for helping birthing people rewrite their inner narrative and build confidence
    🔥 The power of making space for grief, truth, and possibility — all at once

    If you’re holding onto fear, doubt, or trauma from a previous birth, this episode will offer you hope and real tools for transformation.

  • 86. Why I stayed silent in birth and how I finally spoke up and took my power back!
    Mar 12 2025

    Have you ever felt like staying quiet was easier? That if you just “went with the flow,” everything would work out?

    I used to believe that too. From my childhood to my first three births, I stayed small, trusting others over myself.


    But when I found my voice, everything changed—especially in my VBA3C journey.


    In this episode, I’m sharing a deeply personal speech I gave in person about my journey from silence to self-advocacy.

    ‼️ Fair warning—the audio isn’t the best! The event was outside, in the middle of a storm, with people moving around everywhere. But I feel the message is powerful, and if you’d rather watch it, you can check it out on YouTube. ⬇️
