242 | AmyTaylor-Kabbaz - Three vaginal births, severe congenital torticollis, postnatal thyroiditis, Hashimotos, breech vaginal birth, premature labour, bedrest, Matrescence

In this week’s episode I chat to Amy Taylor-Kabbaz about her three births and her journey through matrescence. Amy speaks beautifully about the divided heart of motherhood; the pull to be the woman you were before birth and the desire to fully embrace the joy and challenge of being a mother. As she tells her birth stories she simultaneously shares her own transition into motherhood; the physical and mental struggles, her acceptance of it and, eventually, her ability to embrace her new self.
