The journey to motherhood is often romanticized as a time when women truly bloom, but the reality is far from it. Marie Diab, a certified doula, understands the fears and uncertainties that come with pregnancy and childbirth. Through her platform, Empower Your Birth, she aims to guide expecting mothers towards holistic wellness and a positive mindset for childbirth.
Marie’s journey into the world of birthing coaching started when she became a parent herself and realized the struggles of leaving her child to go back to work. This led her to train as a baby coach, doula, and breastfeeding specialist. Her work focuses on educating parents about the birthing process, preparing their bodies, and understanding the importance of a positive mindset during childbirth.
One of the key aspects of Marie’s coaching is addressing the fears and anxieties women have about giving birth. By providing them with knowledge and support, she helps them navigate through the birthing process with more confidence and empowerment. Marie emphasizes the importance of the mind and how it can impact the birthing experience, highlighting the need for mental preparation and fearlessness.
Marie’s approach to childbirth includes creating a calm and comfortable environment for expecting mothers, whether it’s a natural birth or C-section. She educates women about different birthing options and encourages them to make informed decisions based on their preferences. Marie also advocates for self-care during and after childbirth, emphasizing the importance of prioritizing the needs of new mothers.
Despite traditional beliefs about age and fertility, Marie has worked with women in their late 30s and 40s who successfully became mothers through various interventions. She stresses the importance of seeking multiple opinions, especially for high-risk pregnancies, to ensure a positive birthing experience. Through Empower Your Birth, Marie aims to empower women to thrive during pregnancy and motherhood through knowledge and mindfulness practices.
