In our follow-up conversation Elaine and our mothers discuss the many lessons that motherhood teaches us about ourselves before and after giving birth. Elaine talked about the Birth Fund, and what spurred her to provide midwifery care to families across the U.S. She explained some of the differences between the traditional medical model and midwifery, which can provide lifesaving care that mends our maternal health crisis. This conversation illuminates how birth choice is critical for expecting mothers.

Tune in as we discuss:

• What inspired Elaine Welteroth to start BirthFund
• Why the midwifery care provided by Birth Fund is urgent
• Elaine’s powerful home-birth story
• How Elaine learned that giving birth could be transformative and empowering if one is supported effectively
