Shownotes

In this powerful season finale of Matriarchal Medicine, I have the privilege of facilitating a conversation with my elder and mentor, Whapio, for an illuminating conversation that explores the depth and nuance of wisdom in the birth space. Together, we unpack topics that transcend traditional approaches to birthwork and service - a quantum level of care as it were, including:

  • Understanding rank and hierarchy: how to use your rank to elevate others without diminishing them.
  • The transformative power of curiosity over judgment.
  • Elevating the role of the father in the birth space to create balance and reverence.
  • The importance of mediation and wisdom-keeping as a foundation for birthwork.
  • Woundology and why true service requires stepping beyond the need to manage.
  • What makes The Matrona and their Birthkeeper's Midwifery Cohort unlike anything else available today.

This conversation invites you to redefine what it means to serve birthing families with integrity, alignment, and a deep sense of responsibility to ancient wisdom. Whether you’re a birthkeeper, holistic practitioner, or someone seeking to embody service in your work, this episode is a must-listen.
