I am so excited for this week’s episode because I have a longtime friend coming on to the podcast to talk about her birth experiences, as well as share her expertise on how to approach tough decisions in pregnancy (and life!).

Natalie Bacon is a professionally certified life coach, and helps moms do inner work to overcome daily challenges and live a more purpose driven life.

Natalie was on the podcast about 2 years ago (episode 106) to talk about mindset tips for pregnancy and birth. It’s actually one of the most popular episodes on The Mommy Labor Nurse Podcast – definitely check it out if you haven’t done so already!

A peek at the questions we cover:

  • Tell me about your pregnancy and birth with your first son
  • How was your mindset regarding the outcome of your delivery?
  • As you approached your due date with your second, tell me some of the things that were going through your head regarding whether to VBAC or have another C-section?
  • How can other moms find clarity in making tough decisions in pregnancy?
  • How does mindset impact the experience of childbirth?
  • How was your experience with a VBAC in comparison to your C-section?
  • What are your recommendations in regards to childbirth and mindset?
  • Why is self-trust so crucial for decision-making?
  • How to utilize positive self-talk and self-care as a new mother?
