On The Ancient Act Of Giving Birth With Lizzie Bolliger

In this conversation, we speak with fierce birth advocate, unmedicated birth expert and doula Lizzie Bolliger.   We talk about creating a disruption around giving birth unmedicated in a system that pushes and almost expects births to be medicated. We talk about bringing ourselves back home to the ancient act of giving birth. 

We talk about how our purpose in life is something that is in constant motion and changing and evolving all the time. That the experiences we are having today are going to serve us in the future in the ways we may never know. 

In the end we talk about how being a busy mother providing for the needs of our families and doing work in the world that lights us up is possible.  

This is a beautiful, light hearted, open and honest conversation with a fierce woman who cares deeply about women being able to have a fulfilling birthing experience and is an example to many mothers that being an entrepreneur and a mother is possible and fulfilling. 

A true disruption.

In this episode, we talk about:

Intuition and how powerful a tool it is during our birthing process 

Trusting Your Body to do the one task that biologically most women are tasked with doing which is to give birth

Fear and the role it plays in so many medicated births

Physiological birth which are powered by the innate human capacity of the woman and fetus. 

Purpose and how our purpose is constantly evolving and shifting and its not something that will be the same indefinitely
