Episode 015: Coco Brown’s Resilient Homebirth Story

Maven: Coco Brown of Our Growing Abode @ourgrowingabode on Instagram

Welcome to the Mavens of Motherhood Podcast! This is a place to let go of shame, guilt and the unrealistic expectations placed on moms. I’m your host, Ella, and I reclaim wellness for mothers. I am a mama of three, yoga teacher and your maternal wellness coach. I am a survivor of postpartum depression and have experienced the loss of identity, overwhelm and anxiety that so many mothers today face.

Here’s what I believe: Being a mom does not mean being a martyr. You matter mama and deserve to feel well. Through honest conversations, relatable stories and expert interviews with mavens in maternal wellness, this is a space for you to learn, grow and be encouraged to keep prioritizing you.

Coco Brown is a mom of two, creative and maternal wellness advocate online spreading honest words and inspirational sharing for mothers. I’m so grateful that she is sharing her beautiful home birth story with us. She shares her story and journey into motherhood and how she overcame an eating disorder, loss, grief and miscarriage to get pregnant with her daughter Poet. How she healed her body and mind intentionally with small and big holistic lifestyle changes and received guided help along the way. She paints the picture of her home birth and takes us there into the depths of her journey as it is so fresh in her memory. She even faced shoulder dystocia during the birth of her daughter with grace, empowerment and swift guidance from her midwife. This is an empowering and inspiring story and I am so freaking stoked for you to listen to it!
