Handling Judgment Around Your Birth Choices
In this episode, we talk about how to handle judgment, concern, and unsolicited opinions during pregnancy and birth. We break down why fear-based reactions happen, how to spot them quickly, and how to stop taking them personally. You’ll learn how to set firm but kind boundaries, protect your energy, and stay rooted in self-trust — even when the people around you don’t understand your choices.
What We Cover
- Why family and friends react from fear, not facts
- How to recognize fear-based comments before they shake your confidence
- Boundary-setting that doesn’t require over-explaining
- Scripts for common conversations around birth choices
- Simple ways to redirect uncomfortable discussions
- Staying grounded in your decisions when no one else “gets it”
This episode is for any woman navigating pregnancy or birth choices that fall outside the mainstream — and learning how to hold her ground without burning bridges.
