Consciously Learning From A Negative Birth Experience with Jama Borchuu

In a deeply reflective and gentle manner, she contrasts the simple-minded attitude she had for her first traumatic birth and the consciously determined mindset she had for her empowered second experience. A beautiful story of personal redemption and healing, Jama’s narrative highlights the importance of reclaiming one’s own power.
