  • Informed Consent and Autonomy: A Conversation with Dr. K

    Informed Consent and Autonomy: A Conversation with Dr. K
    Aug 21 2024

    Welcome back to the Midwifery Wisdom Podcast!

    In this episode, Augustine sits down with rising social media star, Dr. K, to dive into her inspiring journey and the impact of her family’s legacy on her career.

    Dr. K shares how she got started on social media and the pivotal role her grandfather’s career in naturopathy played in shaping her path.

    Together, they explore the barriers within obstetrics that hinder midwifery from gaining the exposure it deserves and discuss the importance of informed consent and autonomy in childbirth. The conversation also touches on the history of obstetrics and examines why the increase of women in the field hasn’t brought about the transformative change hoped for.

    This episode is a deep dive into the intersections of tradition, modern medicine, and the ongoing struggle for progress in maternal care.

    Welcome back to the Midwifery Wisdom Podcast!

    This week, Augustine is joined by two incredible guests: Chemin Perez, a dedicated midwife from Washington State, and Julie Miller, an expert in Applied Clinical Nutrition. Together, they explore the fascinating topic of the MTHFR gene.

    In this episode, they unravel what MTHFR is and delve into the epigenetics behind it. They discuss its various manifestations, such as long-term anemia, depression, anxiety, and thyroid issues, and its significant impact on pregnancy and childbirth. Plus, they explain how midwives can test for this gene in their clients.

    Julie and Chemin also reveal the specific protocol they've used with their clients carrying this gene. Spoiler alert: they have successfully turned off the gene in patients who followed this protocol for two years!
