A couple of years after the birth of her first son, Yvonne Strahovski became pregnant with her second child and was determined to have a radically different experience. In this episode, we discuss how birth is just as much a mental and emotional experience as it is a physical one. As she begins to prepare for the arrival of her third baby, Yvonne shares her journey of learning how to listen, prioritize, and trust her intuition in which she describes as the intelligence found within the body.This episode was already released last year, but somehow it went missing. So if you haven’t already listened to this one, let me know what you think.And since releasing this episode, Yvonne gave birth again to her third child! I’m hoping she will join us again to share how incredibly different her third birth was to her second and first births.The photograph of Yvonne was taken on medium format film at dusk in her Malibu home by Matt Bockal.Thank you for being here.
