An insightful conversation with author of Motherhood: Facing and Finding Yourself Lisa Marchiano. A book that personally helped me making meaning of the experience of motherhood.

"Motherhood is the true hero's journey—which is to say that it can be as harrowing as it is joyful, and enlightening as it is exhausting. For Jungian psychoanalyst Lisa Marchiano, this journey is not just an adventure of diaper bags and parent-teacher conferences, but one of intense self-discovery."

Wow! this is one powerful birth story. I am sure this is going to inspire many mamas out there! I'm sure Chantice would love to hear from you guys, drop her a message here:

Trigger warning: discussing miscarriage. In this episode I share my personal reasons why I decided to share my pregnancy news at just 5 weeks, knowing full well that there was (and still is) a chance the pregnancy may not continue. I also share an update on how I'm getting on with my search for a doula. This is a personal episode ❤️

Join me on a journey as we uncover the hidden flaws surrounding mainstream hypnobirthing, a birthing technique that has gained immense popularity for its promise of serene and empowering births. While it has its merits, there's more to the story that needs to be heard and this episode is all about me uncovering the hidden flaws.
