008: Empowered Birth and Motherhood with Javiera Sobarzo
Get ready to get real with Javiera Sobarzo who is on a mission to shift how we talk about, think about, and experience the birth of our children. She shares the incredible progression of exposure to the birth world from a young age all the way through the beautiful details of her home and free births, and everything in between. We're so grateful to share her story in the hopes to remind you that our bodies can heal, that birth is an innate and empowering experience, and that our connection to the earth cannot be separated.
