Disclaimer: This episode focuses on vaginal birth only and may contain triggering information for some listeners. The term "normal" birth is used ironically and in the video version on YouTube you can see that Anne uses quotation marks.
If you or your partner has recently given birth, here's a podcast for you! In this episode, we welcome our special guest counsellor Anne Chronnell who specializes in helping us navigate major life events such as childbirth and parenting. We chat about what the body goes through and needs to heal from, expectations we/our partners/or society places upon the birther, ways to build intimacy with your partner, and how to support someone who's given birth. Note: we recognize not all birthing parents identify as female and may use terminology other than "mother" to describe themselves. Find out more about Anne and her work at https://redtentcounselling.ca or reach her directly at her email: info@redtentcounselling.ca Anne is hosting an in-person workshop for new birthers with babies 0-6 months old in January 2024 in Kelowna, BC, Canada. #polyam #polyamorous #polyamorousrelationship #sex #healthyrelationship #becomingaparent #parenthood #birthing #givingbirth #newparents #newparent #ethicalnonmonogamy #openrelationship #openrelationships #womenshealth #labour #intimacy #intimacygoals #intimacycoaching #sexcoach #relationshipcoach #relationshipcoaching #relationshipcoachingformen #relationshipcoachingforwomen
