Manage episode 422251273 series 3578607
Gal is a mother of 4 with one set of twins and 3 empowering natural birth stories. She was intentional with her birth plans and care provider selections. Ultimately, she pursued hypnobirthing as well as an at-home birth for her youngest child and loved each experience in its own way. There's a fear element in societal portrayals of birth that Gal is trying to dispel with childbirth education and outreach, such as this podcast. Fair warning: listening to this episode might make you look forward to giving birth! Gal champions maternal instinct and wants expecting moms to trust their bodies to know what to do and when to do it. Gal is a certified postpartum doula and founder of Embrace Birth and Beyond, (https://embracebirth.net/) which focuses on childbirth education and methods, including hypnobirthing. She is also the admin of the Facebook group Peanut Moms of Westchester: a group for Westchester, NY moms of kids under 5 to connect and build a supportive village.
