PODCAST - My own experience rebuilding trust in my body, and how you can do the same

I recently had the wonderful opportunity to be a guest on The Mindful Womb, a podcast hosted by the insightful Clara O’Rourke, a certified doula. In this episode, we explored the deeply personal and often challenging journey of navigating infertility and perinatal mental health. Clara’s expertise and compassionate approach made for a meaningful conversation about how to rebuild trust in your body, manage anxiety during pregnancy, and embrace mindfulness practices. It was an honor to share my experiences and insights with Clara and her listeners, and I hope our discussion offers support and encouragement to those on a similar path.

In this episode we discussed how hard it can be to trust your body again after dealing with infertility. I opened up about my own struggles and how I learned to rebuild that trust during my pregnancy.

Mindfulness, or being present in the moment, was a big part of our chat. I shared simple mindfulness practices that can help you stay calm and focused, even when you're feeling anxious or overwhelmed. These techniques can also help with managing fears about pregnancy and birth.

Overall, the episode was about finding ways to feel more confident in your body and handling the worries that come with pregnancy. I hope my story and the tips I shared can offer some comfort and support to anyone who’s facing similar challenges.
