Growing with HeHe, episode 17: HeHe meets with her midwives. The two-and-a-half-hour appointment offered deep emotional connection and holistic care - from Doppler and fetoscope listening, to the intimate moment of hearing her placenta and baby’s heartbeat through a stethoscope. She also unpacks her choice to hire multiple doulas, a decision that helped her soften into receiving support even as a doula herself. She also delves into her Mast Cell Activation Syndrome diagnosis, and its potential connection to rare complications like Amniotic Fluid Embolism. HeHe shares two big bodily shifts: her first true heartburn flare (courtesy of jalapeño pizza) and an unexpected moment of leaking colostrum during a maternity shoot.

Today...I'm my own guest, and I wanted to share a bit about my personal story and the inspiration behind my work. Starting out in emergency medicine in New York City, I eventually moved into family centered care. From personal experience and unanswered questions, I have always been driven by a deep discomfort with the lack of choice and context many people are given during pregnancy and birth. From podcasts, documentaries, and courses to founding a wellness practice and a growing media platform, I've designed offerings with the goal of helping people make informed, empowered choices.
