Trish is sitting down with two incredible women. Jen Wagner, a trained OB anesthesiologist and Bethany, a doula turned nurse and three times C-section Mama. Together they host this C-section Experience podcast.
These women are flipping the narrative on surgical birth, and this conversation is honest, emotional, and packed with tips that every pregnant woman should hear, not just those planning a cesarean, because birth isn't about a plan. It's about your power, and you are the queen of your story no matter how your baby arrives.
