Becoming pregnant as an older mama wasn’t an issue for her. However, having her natural birth the first time around was. She ended up having a medicalized and traumatic birth with her first, which she didn’t really heal up until the weeks before birthing her second.  And it was really through having a physiological birth at home that she really did heal and wake up to the strength she holds as a woman in her feminine power. The euphoria and high she was on after birth is not comparable to anything else she’s ever experienced. And she has experienced some amazing things on her travels.
