Meet Jennie | A Dragon Mother is Born

My guest this week shares the story of the births of all three of her babies, with an emphasis on the birth of her twins one year ago. Her story is of the clearest examples of coercive, abusive, obstetric violence I have ever heard.

We also talk about the importance of telling your story, as many times as you can, the importance of sisterhood, and how we can begin to hold physicians and hospitals accountable for experiences like hers. 

Please note that this episode contains a description of a traumatic birth, skip it if you are pregnant, or needing to protect your space.
