About this episode
In Season 6 of Self Care Edit, host Emma Benyon and I explore what it means to truly empower ourselves as women, delving into setting healthy boundaries, recognizing that “no” is a complete sentence, and embracing our shared humanity without the pressure of perfection. We discuss why a growth mindset—that we’re always learning—is essential for resilience and confidence in every area of life, from career to relationships to motherhood. Drawing on my work as a doula and childbirth educator, I share how claiming our voice and needs transforms birth experiences and ripples outward to strengthen our self-advocacy in all contexts.
