Decolonizing Blood & Birth

The Pod was grateful to learn from THE Alycia Two Bears, a Two-Spirit mixed Cree educator and author from Misatawasis Nêhiyawak First Nation, about her journey to become a midwife, what is a land-birth, how to decolonize and de-stigmatize blood,  reconnecting ceremony and community with birthing, reproductive justice and birth sovereignty, caregiving roles of men and partners within pregnancy, birth, and caregiving, and of course...moss bag science, adult moss bags, and one comfy swaddled podcast host!Grab a tea with honey, snuggle a small human or fluffy pet, and join us in this incredibly important conversation for EVERYONE (not just women) with ALYCIA TWO BEARS.Remember to check out Alycia's new poetry book "The Feast” about love, loss, sex, and ceremony through an Indigenous feminist lens.Curious for more resources or are you an educator?
