What happens when the moment that’s supposed to be one of life’s most joyful turns into one of the most traumatic?

In this powerful episode, I’m joined by Kayleigh Summers — licensed therapist, writer, and one of today’s most important voices in the conversation around birth trauma. After surviving a rare and nearly fatal Amniotic Fluid Embolism, Kayleigh turned her experience into purpose: helping others process, heal, and feel less alone through her therapy practice, podcast, and deeply honest social media storytelling.

We talk about:

• What birth trauma really looks like — and why it’s more common than we think
• The emotional aftermath survivors face, even after “healthy” outcomes
• How partners and providers can better support people recovering from traumatic birth
• The power of sharing stories and normalizing mental health care in the perinatal period

Whether you’ve personally experienced trauma or want to better understand how to support others who have, this episode will stay with you.
