  • Naturopathic Medicine, Hormones, Fertility, and Perimenopause with Dr. Robyn Wright
    Oct 28 2024

    Text Hannah!

    If you're a woman in your 30's and beyond, you'll want to tune into this episode.

    Hormones play a key role in our overall health, especially when it comes to fertility, perimenopause, and menopause. But have you wondered how to balance them naturally without getting on some sort of hormonal birth control?

    In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Robyn Wright, a naturopathic doctor specializing in women's hormones, to discuss how your hormones affect fertility, the transitions of perimenopause, and what to expect during menopause.

    If you're curious about how to support your hormonal health naturally and take back control, this episode is for you!

  • Hard truth? A scheduled repeat c-section may not give you the control you're hoping for.
    Sep 30 2024

    Text Hannah!

    I want to start out by saying I'm NOT anti-c-section. I'm not against scheduling repeat c-sections simply because YOU want to. What I'm against is unnecessary c-sections. Coerced or pressured c-sections. C-sections chosen without full informed consent.

    I've heard many women say that want to have some control over their birth the second time around so they are scheduling a repeat c-section. But is that really what puts you in control?

    • In this episode, I share some misconceptions about scheduling a repeat c-section vs. having a VBAC.
    • I also talk about where the true control comes from during your pregnancy and birth.

    Tune in for some tangible empowerment that will help you work through fear and doubt so you can feel ready for your birth, whether that be a VBAC or a repeat c-section.
