Grab a cup of coffee and join me for a wonderful conversation with my guest, Laurel, for the final portion of our conversation. In the previous episode, Laurel helps us understand the trauma and experience of her first birth. If you haven't listened, be sure to go back and listen to the first episode. In today's episode, we discuss how Laurel's deep and intentional work to heal her pelvic floor, multi-faceted body work, intentionally choosing her provider and birth location, and mind work with her therapist; how she was transformed, from the inside out, during her second birth, which she describes as redemptive.

Grab a cup of coffee and join me for a wonderful conversation with my guest, Laurel, who shares with us her experience of giving birth to her first baby in the hospital. I do want to give an adequate *Trigger Warning* - Laurel's Story does include obstetric violence and we do talk about that trauma. Laurel graciously shares how her own experience in birth mobilized her to do something with her trauma, and to empower others. Laurel's story is separated into two episodes, so in place of a Transformative Short episode, I hope you'll join us right back here in two weeks for a redemptive and healing part two of Laurel's transformative story.
