Guest Bio:

Jenn Thatcher left a successful career as an international artist to found ZEBRA. Jenn believes her children were victims of dirty products and a system that is designed to trick consumers. Her son Jack’s diagnosis of a brain tumor made her even more vigilant at researching every single ingredient in the products her family was using.

She realized that products are really not always as natural as they seem. She decided if she wanted something truly safe, and high performance she was going to have to create it herself. This is how ZEBRA was born.

Jenn’s faith and love of country is woven into ZEBRA, not only are the ingredients in the products “black and white,” but she lives by the idea of the constitution and the Bible being black and white as well. ZEBRA is a non-toxic, freedom loving brand who answers to no one but the Creator himself.

20: The Impacts of Fear Based Care with Shana Dewitt

20: The Impacts of Fear Based Care with Shana Dewitt

Fear based care in America has been dictating women’s births for years. Healthcare professionals are fearful of repercussions and this leads to the use of fear based education when providing care to patients. Ergo, birthing people often feel pressured into making decisions because they are scared or concerned about something. This can leave new parents, especially women, feeling out of control and taken advantage of. HeHe sits down with Shana Dewitt who has had two very different birth experiences. Shana walks us through her birth stories and the feelings of being pressured into . She gets down right and dirty about all the feels, but instead of grabbing your tissues, I urge you to grab your books to educate yourself on the choices you have when it comes to your birth experience.    Shownotes: Check out the blog!
