Podcast: Advocacy, Trauma & Decision Making with Midwife, Illiyin Morrison

Advocacy, Trauma & Decision Making with Midwife, Illiyin Morrison

Season 2, Episode 10

Advocating for yourself (or other people) or knowing how to make decisions can be really difficult when it comes to maternity care.

In this episode I'm joined by birth trauma specialist midwife, Illiyin Morrison to discuss how we can ensure we are advocated for throughout the perinatal period.

Speaking from a trauma informed perspective, listen to this episode for practical decision making tips, a deeper understanding of navigating maternity services and a holistic conversation about birth advocacy.

Please note, no specific traumatic events are discussed in this episode. We discuss trauma with a focus on what may cause it, how to navigate birth after it and what steps could sometimes be taken to minimise the occurrence of it.
