#31 CONVERSATION with Kara Mears on helping women feel less afraid

when they have babies

Dear friends,

full of gratitude I’m sharing my conversation with Kara Mears, Certified Nurse Midwife, mother of 3, and Pre/Postnatal Yoga Instructor.

I first came across Karas Instagram profile and was drawn in by there thoughtful texts and beautifully curated images surrounding motherhood and birth. Turns out the feeling was mutual and we started connecting more.

Sometimes you just know right away, who your people are and Kara is one of those virtual connections for me. I’m beyond grateful and thrilled that she will join me on my retreat this fall and I get to bathe a whole weekend in her beautiful presence.

Kara and I talk about

☾ Her path and her work to help women feel less afraid when they have their babies

☾ Where our fears stem from. We talk about the subconscious mind and the cultural narrative.

☾ How we all have stories we tell ourselves about our “birthing” no matter how peaceful the experience

☾ Her program the “Motherbirth roadmap”

☾ What it means for us to step into “guidance”. To unlearn. To remember. To be there for each other.

☾ What it means to embody the wild woman

I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as we did and both Kara and I would be delighted to go deeper in the comments.

You can find more of Kara on her webpage and her Instagram.

Would you like to sit in circle or sauna with me and Kara this fall and go deep in conversation? We have 3 beds left for the Pause Retreat. See details below.

This fall we have a beautiful Itinerary that is centered around rest, enchantment and joy. Tying in with this conversation though, I am happy to announce that we will have a circle were we will learn to make a basket while also weaving our births into stories of powerful initiation.

Visit here to check out the full itinerary.

As always, I would love to hear your thoughts about this conversation!
