When it comes to childbirth, "your body was made for this" is not the same as "your body holds the wisdom you need."

The first one upholds an unrealistic (and honestly ableist) standard that leaves people feeling broken when their body deviates from this over-generalization.

The latter statement honors the codes of ancestral wisdom alive in your DNA and aims to empower your ability to trust yourself in naming what is best for you—whether you're at home, at a hospital, medicated or not, uninterrupted or with medical interventions.
