Dr. Motsei was one of my guides during a recent trip to South Africa to sit in a ceremony with Indigenous midwives through a program offered by my friend Sevonna Brown, National Director of Restore Forward. Sevonna has also been on the podcast. Mmatshilo is a prolific author, healer, and educator, and she will be a keynote speaker at the upcoming Born Free Twins-Breech Conference in Louisville. I am enrolled in her online program “African Spirituality of Childbirth”. In this flowing conversation, we talk about racism, colonization, and spirituality on her continent, using these themes to explore issues within maternal health and birthwork. This was one of my favorite interviews so far…
