014: Nicole Morales: The Darkness is Where We Find the Gold

In this episode, Nicole Morales guides us through the labyrinth of birth and life that spans both the Light and darkness. Her wisdom and storytelling are steeped in creating and holding a space for grace for all things; especially the trauma, challenges and inevitable pain that life brings. Whether it's being a mother or a globally acclaimed midwife, Nicole shows us that life's greatest gifts lie within the triggers and facing them is the foundation for healing ourselves and the world. Nicole Morales is a mother, a wife, a daughter, a sister, an aunt, a midwife, a doula, a friend, and a mentor. Empowered by her own very different births of her three children at home, Nicole is drawn to assisting families in birthing and parenting in awareness and to appreciating the sacred relationships throughout the childbearing years and beyond. She has worked as a doula for many years and has benefited from the apprenticeship model of midwifery. Nicole is an Approved Spinning Babies Trainer and a Certified Birthing from Within Mentor. She blends these tools in her midwifery practice as well in instruction from both perspectives of the mind and body. She also is an instructor for Nizhoni Institute of Midwifery and is part of breechbirthsd.com which helps breech families navigate the systems as best as possible by being an online resource center.
