Preparing for Birth, Midwifery, and How to Use Your Voice with Yuen Kwan Chan
Lisa’s Midwife, Yuen from TLC Midwifery, talks about birth in the most empowering and refreshing way — leaving fear and judgment behind no matter how and where you choose to give birth. Yuen has had a massive impact on Lisa — opening her eyes to what healthcare is capable of when compassion is prioritized.

- Why an epidural can be helpful from a holistic perspective
- White coat syndrome: how to reclaim your voice when it comes to your health
