PRE-RECORDED SALONS

Surrogacy, IVF & Reproductive Tech:

In this 2 hour pre-recorded Salon, we traverse the controversial, charged, *and* wildly important topic of Surrogacy & IVF from my own personal lens & philosophy (and the heaps of research and studies I’ve done of these subjects over the years).

This Salon covers the distinctions between surrogacy within and outside of families, commercial and “unpaid” surrogacy, egg and sperm-donation, IVF, along with the politics, the programming, the nuances, and the cult-rituals that have constructed the normalization of the industry, not to mention ecto-genesis (artificial wombs—they’re almost here) and what freebirth has to do with it.

Positioning & Shoulder Dystocia:

Join acclaimed birth-activist, speaker, and writer Yolande Norris-Clark as she dismantles many of the myths surrounding positioning and shoulder dystocia, that a) keep women in a state of fear and dependency on the industrial obstetric and midwifery systems, and b) keep midwives practising from a fear-based birth-as-pathology/ midwife-as-saviour perspective. 

Whether you’re a mother preparing for a homebirth, or a midwife, doula, or birthkeeper wanting to advance your learning (and shift your belief from the mechanistic vortex of false-authority to an authentic understanding of the physiology of birth) this Salon is for you.

Fear & Intuition in Birth:

Tools for Discerning Authentic Fear from Instinctive Knowing

In this 2-hour interactive Salon, Join Yolande as she shares the most potent tools and approaches she has employed in her 20 years of mothering and birth-work, for discerning limiting fears & self-sabotage from those profoundly important safety and survival signals. A workshop for mothers, birth workers, and anyone interested in working powerfully with fear.
