The Taboo Birth: Reframing the Medical Narrative and Empowering Parents at Home
Angelica Martin, MS, PA-C will share a unique blend of personal experience and evidence-based medicine in support of safe home-birthing practices.
Self-describing as a "science-grounded, spirit led" practitioner, Angelica brings with her several years of experience as a Physician Assistant and her stories of three planned healthy home-births. This talk will not only empower future parents to explore medically sound options for bringing their children into this world but serves also to spark conversations that shift the current narrative within western medicine as it pertains to holistic approaches in birthing including midwifery care, doula support, lactation consultants and other resources every birthing parent should have access to.
