Season 3, Episode 3: The Power of Physiology and Intention in Birth

Alicia Fishbein and Meredith Nelson are the founders of Intentional Birth, as well as seasoned doulas, with two decades of combined experience serving hundreds of families.  They are mothers and birth lovers who are passionately working to promote physiological, intentional, and instinctual birth from a foundation of trust. They have programs for both pregnant people and those who serve them. In this episode, Alicia and Meredith share their origin stories, their birth experiences, and their passion for reducing trauma and improving birth outcomes through education and support. As a sister culture maker, I really enjoyed our conversation. I hope you will too.
