Birth Story Held: A Guide for Assisting Doulas, Midwives, and Obstetricians Process Their Helping Experiences *LGBTQIA-Affirming*
You have dedicated your career to helping birthing people as their little ones journey from the womb to the world. In doing this work, you have held their birth stories. Many, many stories. You bear witness and play an integral role in the birthing process. After a birth story has ended, what happens with your part of the story? Birth Story Held is an opportunity for you to take time and space for yourself to process your experience of and feelings about your role in someone else’s birth story. Healing through honest reflection is an essential part of doing this type of supportive work. Here is your space for that!
