Birth today in the US is a pretty corrupted experience. How often does it go the way mom wants? The way baby wants?
This conversation is a sacred one. Birth is where it all starts.
Every single one of us has a birth story.
In other words, the way we came into the world IS significant.
In today’s episode, I sit down with FEM Nicole Safford, RN, BCP2, BCP3, and we go deep into birth trauma.

Birth today in the US is a pretty corrupted experience. How often does it go the way mom wants? The way baby wants?
This conversation is a sacred one. Birth is where it all starts.
Every single one of us has a birth story.
In other words, the way we came into the world IS significant.
In today’s episode, I sit down with FEM Nicole Safford, RN, BCP2, BCP3, and we go deep into birth trauma.
Our conversation can help you have incredible awareness into your health story by pointing to your birth experience, your birth trauma or the birth trauma your child experienced.
Trauma is not the event itself but the felt sense of an experience. The memory is held in the body, not the brain.
Uncover how birth trauma imprints on the nervous system, impacting gene expression and emotional, physical and cellular well-being throughout life and across generations.
Listen in as we explore:
- How the mother-baby connection shapes resilience.
- The lasting influence of prenatal and perinatal experiences.
- The body’s cellular memory of trauma.
- The science behind trauma physiology, neurodevelopment and most importantly, the pathways to healing.
- How “the way you birth changes the earth.”
Grab your journal — this is definitely an episode where you’ll want to jot down the awareness and connections that come through for your continued healing journey and your child's.

About Nicole
Nicole is a second-year Fiercely Empowered Mama and mom of two young boys. Her drive to heal her son led her to Mamahood, my natural mama pop-up Facebook group, where her medical mindset shifted, prompting her to leave her role as a registered nurse and pursue natural healing.
Through FEM, Nicole embraced her role as the "Head of the Healthcare Table" and immersed herself in the study of birth trauma healing, retained primitive reflex integration, movement, bodywork and energy healing.
With the support of the work we do inside FEM, along with her drive to learn, she remained focused on addressing the root causes of her son’s challenges.
Nicole’s journey not only transformed her son’s health but also set her on a path of self-discovery and alignment.
Now, she’s passionate about empowering other moms to trust their intuition and seek out the root causes of healing for their own children.
