They discuss her experiences as a midwife from the humanitarian perspective, dealing with every midwife's “worst nightmares”, how she handles seeing so much death, and her suggestions for how to bring midwifery in the United States into the modern age. Kristine is a mentor with Midwifery Wisdom Collective and will be speaking at the Midwifery Wisdom Experience in Galveston, TX November 2022. Show Resources-Doctors without Borders-The Traveling Midwife Course
