À propos de cet audio
Seriously… why would anyone skip the epidural? In this episode, I unpack the surprising reasons women say no to pain relief—and why it’s not as crazy as it sounds.
In a world where pain relief is right there for the taking, it can seem wild that some women actually choose to give birth without it.
Listen in to hear some surprising reasons that you may have never considered. From personal stories to common motivators like fear of needles, frustration with hospitals, wanting the full rite-of-passage experience, or avoiding the hidden risks of epidurals—you’ll hear the full picture behind this misunderstood choice.
This isn’t about shaming women who get the epidural (there are just as many valid reasons for that). It’s about pulling back the curtain on why unmedicated birth appeals to some and building more understanding across the birth spectrum.
If you’ve ever wondered why in the world someone would say no to pain relief—or if you’re weighing your own options—this episode is for you.
