45: Navigating Inclusive Birth Support & Deeping Your Mind-Body Connection - with Sabrina Ortolano

June 25, 2024 Clara O'Rourke - Clear Light Birth Episode 45

Let’s talk about inclusive care for expecting individuals. In this enlightening episode, I had the pleasure of interviewing Sabrina Ortolano (she/her), a Birth Doula of nearly thirty years and owner of IPSB, Los Angeles’ longest-running massage and bodywork school. As a queer birthworker and body worker, Sabrina shares her wisdom about how to take a holistic approach to finding affirming care while also deepening your mind-body connection. 

In this episode, we dive into the following:

  • How to find affirming birth support
  • How to screen for a supported provider
  • Deepening your mind body connection for resiliency 
  • How psycho-emotional state can impact our bodies
