Bringing Human Touch Back to The Birthing Experience w/ Birth Nurse & Doula, Berdette Carrasco
My guest this week is Berdette Carrasco, an obstetrics nurse & birthing doula. She is a fierce advocate for helping YOU co-create the birthing experience with your baby as they make their way earthside. Berdette founded her own pregnancy care company, MB&Sphere, when she recognized that the pandemic created a huge shift in the healthcare system - she felt it lost it’s human touch, and became all about the body. But as we know, our health and wellness are so much more than that - it takes some awareness of your mind and spirit too! Over her career, Berdette has delivered 4,500+ babies and continues to be a bountiful resource for how to make the experience of becoming a family an abundant one! In this episode we discuss: trusting in your intuition and the messages your body has for you, especially during the birth experience why the personal touch of healthcare is important in helping ourselves and others be well what the femtech industry is and how it’s progressing as we learn more about women’s bodies why spiritual mentors are so incredibly important to our own journeys Want to get connected with Berdette?
