This conversation was PACKED with so many great lessons and messages about living life on your terms and refusing to life the life society and your family say you're destined for.
Samy did NOT settle for less with her health, her kid's health, or her any other decision regarding her family.
We talk a lot about her journey with hashimoto's disease (and her group coaching program for other women dealing with it) , how she advocated for her health, went against the gran with her medically challenged children, AND decided to homeschool her kids.
This is such an informative episode on these topics, along with inspirational to do life your way regardless of what the people around you say you should do.
Never stop fighting for what you know is right for YOU! Samy sure didn't!
Find out everything she is up to- including her group coaching program for moms with hashimoto's disease- on her IG and website.

Vanessa found a way to turn every excuse in the book into her drive.
She became a mother earlier than most, but from the beginning was determined to do motherhood her way.
She refused to be a statistic and would even repeat to herself, “Failure is not an option” when things got hard.
She not only finished high school and graduated college, but she went on to become a nurse and an IBCLC, as well as an entrepreneur determined to diversify her income and keep things fun along the way.
Her story of determination and grit is a powerful one for all moms listening, including myself.
We talked about ⬇️
➡️the challenges of being a single mom while working a full-time job while also building your business on the side
➡️how sometimes your business does have to take a backseat, and knowing when and how to prioritize
➡️the importance of prenatal breast-feeding education.
➡️the link between breast-feeding and mental health.
➡️learning how to stay in your lane and not compare your journey to everybody else’s around you who has different circumstances than you.
➡️🔥🔥We also dove into her personal experience with depression. She shared so candidly and vulnerably it gave me chills!
A MUST LISTEN!

Opening up about the full body/soul YES feeling I’m having about sharing stories and opinions I’ve kept close to the vest for a long time. (Follow up to opening up in last episode)
Also I accidentally talk briefly about my baby girls birth and that cracks my heart and emotions wide the fuck open. (Unexpected share, but letting it flow)
I also share how I KNOW the universe will allow abundance to follow this step of me being the realest version of me. That energy exchange from the universe is only part of why I’m sharing but it’s contributing to the full picture of being able to do all the things with/for these kids that I’ve dreamed of.

When you fall in the middle on topics, especially related to how you manage your health (and in turn your pregnancy) it can be hard to know where you fit it.
It can feel like judgement and unsolicited advice is coming at you at every turn.
You may not know who to talk to or how to navigate it.
In this episode I give examples of how many of my past clients have fallen in the middle ground of wanting unconventional choices while weaving them in with medical options.
I talk about the type community you will find within my program The Crib, or even in my DMs if that's all you need:)

Not pregnant, but a mom who would consider herself "scrunchy", in the middle, and/or in need of a nonjudgemental community of moms?

This week sharing another LIVE I did on IG.
If you are wanting to make unconventional choices this pregnancy and birth and it feels hard, you are in the right place!
Here are 3 things you can do NOW to add ease to the process.
1. Find someone you can talk to about your past birth experience or fears coming up for you (my DMs are always open) who will actually listen. Who will encourage you to feel the hard parts and won't make you feel shame or guilt for those feelings. Who wont brush them off or make you feel crazy for thinking them. Who will FINALLY make you feel seen and validated in what happened or what you are feeling.
2. Get clear on how you want to FEEL this time. Do this before you dive into the tangible decisions or write the “plan”- I have an amazing free list of journal prompts to help you here.
3. Familiarize yourself with options- conventional and unconventional. Learn the terms/words so instead of “not knowing what you don’t know”, you at least know what you need more info on! I created a list to get you started that is also in the bundle mentioned above.
If you are wanting more support and PERSONALIZED guidance through all of pregnancy, birth, and postpartum, I highly recommend applying for my coaching program The Crib.

If nothing else, make sure you are following me on IG HERE and DM me so I can get to know you better:) Chatting with you all is seriously what keeps me doing this work.
In this weeks episode I share an IG live I did a couple of weeks ago all about why I chose unconventional birth options and why most of my clients do too.
Even if you are unsure, I highly recommend giving it a listen so you open your eyes to what's possible.
I hear a lot "I don't know what I don't know" and this will give you a small peek into what you may not know and where to find more answers and support if that's what you are looking for.
