Author: HeHe Stewart July 24, 2020 Duration: 33:30
Coronavirus has caused some definite headaches in 2020, but I would like to highlight a few positive changes that I’ve witnessed come about in the birth world due to this global pandemic. Not everything is doom and gloom. Matter of fact, somethings have really changed for the better and can be used to keep the momentum in changing women’s health in a permanent way. In today’s episode, I’m diving into the trends and protocol changes we have seen take place, what worked + what didn’t work, and how we can use the last few months as a stepping stone to bettering how we birth! This may be THE best episode I have recorded up to this point. This is a raw inside look at the critical thinking that we do behind the scenes at Tranquility by HeHe and The Birth Lounge to ensue we are taking very calculated steps to get you to your dream birth at each stage of the process. From the very beginning of Coronavirus, I have been on the lookout for positive changes and I’m happy to share the really big ones right here!    For more information on The CONTROL Method, this FREE MASTERCLASS breaks it all down: www.thebirthlounge.com/youridealbirth   To join The Birth Lounge, click here: www.thebirthlounge.com   For more information about Homebirth or Midwifery care, check out Episodes 30, 51, and 53!
