Elaine Welteroth on Planning a Joyful Birth, from The Second Opinion

I’m sharing a special episode this week, from Dr. Sharon Malone. On Dr. Sharon’s new podcast, The Second Opinion, women take back the conversation on health with straight talk, real experience, and the care we all deserve. You’ll hear prominent female advocates, experts and patients just like you sharing how they confronted gaps in our healthcare system and got second opinions that saved their lives. Alongside each guest, Dr. Sharon tackles the questions and topics we’ve been conditioned to ignore the ones we search for at 3 a.m. but never bring up at the doctor’s office. From dismissed symptoms to systemic failures, she pulls back the curtain on what’s really going on in women’s health and gives women the tools to advocate for themselves and each other.  

In this episode, Dr. Sharon talks to journalist Elaine Welteroth about Elaine’s birthing journey, how she’s working to make birth joyful again, and how her new non-profit, birthFUND, is helping families get access to life-saving midwifery care.
