Sharing Birth Stories: Embracing the Journey of Motherhood and Holistic Healing, Jaxon's Natural Birth

What if sharing the story of your birth could transform your understanding of life? Join us on the ModernZen Collective podcast as Lizzy Sutton opens up about the intimate and transformative journey of bringing her son, Jaxon James Sutton, into the world. Inspired by a New Zealand pediatrician's tradition of recounting birth stories annually, Lizzy shares her motivation to preserve these precious memories while normalizing conversations around childbirth. This episode marks Lizzy's evolution from the Flow Aligned Coaching Podcast to this new collaboration with Nikki, highlighting the significance of storytelling in motherhood and beyond.

As we explore the whirlwind final days before Jaxon's birth, Lizzy paints a vivid picture of her journey to the Fort Worth Birthing Center for a natural childbirth. With candid humor, she recounts the unexpected onset of labor, a timely car breakdown, and the crucial support of her doula. Lizzie's narrative delves into the powerful role of HypnoBirthing, the reframing of language, and the empowerment that comes from choosing words like "birthing time" over "labor." Amidst the challenges and triumphs, the episode underscores the importance of trust in the body's natural process and the profound beauty of childbirth.

Her natural birth experience unfolds with raw emotion and intensity, highlighting the support system that surrounded her during this pivotal moment. From managing contractions in a birthing tub to overcoming the tense moments of Jaxon's arrival with the umbilical cord wrapped around his neck, Lizzy's story is a testament to resilience and faith in her birthing team. As she reflects on postpartum healing, Lizzy candidly shares the physical recovery journey, from unexpected challenges to the empowerment found in chiropractic care. This episode celebrates the miraculous nature of birth, holistic living, and the incredible journey of motherhood.
