What Hinders and Helps, with Rhea Dempsey

The Captain accompanied me today as I attended a wonderful workshop by Rhea Dempsey.

Rhea spoke of willing women, of crisis of confidence, of support and fear.

She made it all seem so simple - IF ONLY the world were birth-friendly.  Each woman in attendance was a willing woman, and with each willing woman, we take a step closer to truly Informed Birth. 

As women who have experienced and seen birth power, mothers born, and the roar of strength and confidence that comes from it, it is impossible to stay silent. 

Nor should we.

I feel like I am riding the crest of a wave, the power beneath me is thrilling and wonderful, the possibilities are enormous.
