Is this the end of Pure Motherhood?
In this last episode of 2022, we leave you with this cliff hanger (not on purpose). Listen in, as we talk about our recent discovery about our business, about each other and what the future holds (you’ll hear more about what lights us up individually). These revelations all happened within the last month and was all orchestrated by God. This was a very nerve wrecking but also exciting episode. We are SO thankful for all the challenges and sucky times of 2022 because it all got us to this amazing place. We hope you have an amazing end of 2022 and that you can sit still for a moment and also reflect on your year, all the good and bad. If you listened In, we mentioned Aki, quite a few times and how much he helped us personally and in our business. If you’re interested in working with him, check him out here.

The evolution of the birth experience
In this episode we talk about birth over the decades. The fact that the actual physiology of birth has not changed since the beginning of time. The only thing that has changed is the way birth is treated and that has ultimately done a disservice to women. We chat about what we think needs to change in order to shift the power structure of the birth experience giving it back to the mother. It all starts with you.

The truth will set you free...
In this episode we share all of the things we've been wanting to say but haven't. Whether it be because we were afraid of ruffling feathers, offending people, or feeling judged. We are so done with the self-censorship! We sat down and let it all out.
