E97. Birth Debrief and Maternal Burnout with Illiyin Morrison

Birth Debrief and Maternal Burnout Illiyin Morrison Both physical and psychological birth injuries are documented to impact 1 in 20 people every year in the UK. Taking control of and understanding your birth can be a powerful tool in healing. I think it is important we keep things real, both in terms of the less idealistic side of birth but also the challenges that come with motherhood and how burnout can impact so many of us. This week I am joined by Illiyin Morrison, known on Instagram @mixing.up.motherhood. Illiyin is a birth trauma specialist midwife, qualified hypnobirthing instructor, birth debrief facilitator and mother of two. This episode is for anyone who has had a baby, wants to share the load and to realise they are not alone in the thoughts and feelings they may be having.
