In todays episode, this lovely and courageous mum of two, Fiona, shares her incredible journey to help empower others. To say that facing birth after a history of birth trauma is intense; is a gross understatement. Amidst the stress of her second birth, that is quickly spiralling out of her control, Fiona 100% claims ownership of the process and finds the strength and control to choose the birth she wants. **Trigger Warning** this episode goes into detail regarding birth trauma - emotionally and physically, so please make sure you are comfortable listening and reach out for support to your Doctor, if you feel you need more support. #birthtrauma #birthstory #positivebirth #csection #empoweredbirth #csection #birthtraumarecovery #postpartum #podcast #newmum #womenshealth #pelvicfloor #pelvicfloorexercises #csectionrecovery #womensfitness
