I became a fierce advocate for gentle birth as a solution for the most pressing problems of our times - a solution that begins at the source.
Childbirth being one's most significant life passage, those close to us when we open to birth a baby will never be forgotten.
Like my sister, 981 women die every day on Earth from pregnancy and birth-related complications.
I had amazing midwives when I first became a teen-aged mom, and each of the five times I gave birth.
