We're Maryn + Margo

We are mamas and birth workers who decided to do birth differently– and bring others along with us. We are kind, fun to work with, and great at (lovingly) calling people on their bullshit. With 12 children and 20 years of midwifery between us, we’ve learned a thing or two along the way, and Indie Birth is our space to share it all with you.

Today’s gift will give you some intellectual and emotional food for thought. We talk a lot about Susun Weed’s “6 Steps of Healing” here at Indie Birth, and I thought it would be fun to talk through the steps from a birth perspective. This would be helpful for pregnant and birthing women who have issues or problems they think they need to solve; from something like heartburn, to a breech baby! What are our options and in what order can we approach them? I love this “system” because it’s not just based on what evidence you can find, or what supplements could support you. It’s really based on LISTENING to yourself and realizing in a BIG WAY that you there are so many choices available in ANY given situation, and that with full autonomy, the list is loooooonnnggg as to how you can support your own healing.

Maybe this makes perfect sense to you, and you’ll love listening to the 6 steps of healing…or you have no idea what I am talking about and you are intrigued! Either way, take a listen and feel free to share your thoughts or revelations with me, as well as share this and our other podcasts. If we aren’t always thinking and striving to be more intentional in our life and with our choices, how will we grow?! Pregnancy, birth and mothering are ALL about our inner growth.
