TW - Suicide and Suicidal Ideation

It is so good to be BACK after an unexpected 6-month hiatus!

Today's episode is titled “Meconium Happens” (obviously) and we will be discussing just that; what happens in our bodies, minds and businesses when shit hits the fan. We hope to share the lessons and wisdom from these experiences. We also in true Doula form want to encourage our birth pals who have been or who are currently there!

Rabbit Illustration:

"A pregnant rabbit is hopping along in the forest when it begins to feel the first signs of labour. Naturally, it knows to find a safe, dark, warm place to labour down and waits for its body to do what it does. Suddenly the rabbit hears the familiar rustle of a fox near their chosen birthing spot. The rabbit's heart rate increases as adrenaline is pumped through its body. Their blood flow and oxygen are redirected to their limbs, contractions stop and the rabbit runs away to find another safer place to give birth."

-        The challenge/s you experienced. (the rustle in the bushes)

-        The fears and insecurities that brought up for you (Perceived danger)

-        How you faced the challenge. (Fight or flight response)

-        How did you get back to a state of peace/rest?

Are you reacting or responding?

Birth Work is Life work - How you react/respond to your everyday life will be how you react/respond in your business.
