On today’s episode, we’re sitting down with the incredible Kayleigh Summers, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker & friend of PSI. Kayleigh supports folks in the perinatal period especially as it relates to birth trauma - including consultation, therapy, support groups, workshops, a blog, sharing her lived experience at PSI trainings, and a little ‘ol podcast called The Birth Trauma Mama. (In case you didn’t pick up on the sarcasm, there isn’t anything little about Kayleigh’s podcast … at all!) Today, we'll be chatting about the lived experience of an Amniotic Fluid Embolism survivor, which includes vivid details that may feel difficult for some listeners to hear. Please tune in with that knowledge and pause at any point, if you need. We were honored to sit down and record this conversation. So, without further ado, please sit back, relax, and enjoy this episode with our friend, Kayleigh.
