Jennifer Lang is a medical doctor specializing in obstetrics and gynecology. Alongside her professional expertise, she is a mother to three children aged 14, 13, and 11. Jennifer's debut book, titled "The Whole 9 Months: A Week-by-Week Pregnancy Guide with Recipes for a Healthy Start," was driven by her strong belief in the transformative power of food during pregnancy. She firmly advocates for adopting healthy eating habits during this crucial time to establish a lifelong foundation of well-being for children. Jennifer's aim is to inspire expectant mothers and their families to approach pregnancy with heightened mindfulness and a commitment to self-care. She emphasizes the role parents play as influential figures for their little ones, acknowledging that the journey towards nutritious dietary choices commences even before birth.As Jennifer's own children grow, she has increasingly recognized the paramount importance of providing them with the necessary knowledge to develop a positive and healthy relationship with their bodies, as well as with others. Motivated by this realization, she penned her latest book, "Consent: Every Teen's Guide to Healthy Sexuality." Jennifer perceives a lack of accessible resources that address comprehensive sexual education while centering on the essential aspect of every sexual interaction, consent. She believes that teaching teenagers about the significance of mutual, active, affirmative, and enthusiastic consent is pivotal as they embark on their path of self-discovery and transition into young adulthood.Visit the show notes for more.Learn More & Connect with Jennifer:InstagramFacebookTwitterBooks by Jennifer Lang, MD:Consent: The New Rules of Sex Education: Every Teen's Guide to Healthy Sexual RelationshipsThe Whole 9 Months: A Week-By-Week Pregnancy Nutrition Guide with Recipes for a Healthy Start⁠This episode was made possible by:AHCC - code BELOVED10 for 10% off on Immune Intel⁠⁠BIRTHFIT⁠ - code BELOVED to get one month FREE in their B!

Dr. James Thorp is a 68-year-old OB/GYN specialist in maternal-fetal medicine from Florida. With over 42 years of experience, he has seen 6,000 to 7,000 high-risk pregnant patients annually. Since the COVID-19 vaccine rollout, he has observed a significant rise in fetal deaths and miscarriages among his patients. However, it's hard to know the full extent of these adverse effects due to gag orders imposed on physicians and nurses since September 2021. Despite risking his career, Dr. Thorp is speaking out about what he's seeing in his practice and the information available in Pfizer's documents and the VAERS database. In his opinion, the mRNA vaccines aren't safe for pregnant women and their fetuses.As an accredited OB/GYN, Dr. James underwent intensive research during his three years of subspecialty training, which has given him a wealth of knowledge and expertise in counseling patients. He graduated from Wayne State University School of Medicine in 1979 with a health profession scholarship and was commissioned as an officer in the US Air Force. Despite the risk of being relegated to a low-tier military residency program, he was fortunate to have a mentor in Ign Phillip Seis and his impressive credentials are a testament to his dedication to his profession.Visit the show notes for more.(Video with James' slides was removed from Youtube, but you can now find it here on Rumble!)Learn More & Connect with James: TwitterSponsorship made possible by:⁠BIRTHFIT⁠ - code BELOVED to get one month FREE in their B!

Nicole Heidbreder deeply appreciates the beauty and intricacy involved in the processes of birth and death. She acknowledges that childbirth is a holistic experience involving physical, spiritual, and emotional aspects for both the mother and the newborn as a new life is welcomed. She believes that the commonly held belief that a healthy baby and mother signify a successful birth is an oversimplification and can be detrimental to the birthing experience.

Elena Tonetti-Vladimirova founded Birth Into Being, an international organization dedicated to conscious evolution and creating a thriving social structure based on love, compassion, and common sense. Elena is a speaker, filmmaker, and author who uses multimedia to share her message. She gained expertise in alternative birth practices, business management seminars, and citizen diplomacy during the 80s in Russia. After a life-changing move to the US in 1989, Elena created Birth Into Being and has since led 20 Birth Into Being Method workshops and trained over 200 facilitators in 22 countries. She is retiring from leading workshops to focus on conscious creation and new projects.Elena sees the arrival of a new human being popping out of non-existence into our three-dimensional reality as phenomenal. With the probability of any one of us being born is one to 400 trillion, the whole process of conception, development, and delivery is nothing short of miraculous. The main mistake of our civilization is treating the arrival of a new human being as just another event. Visit the show notes for more.Learn More & Connect with Elena Tonetti:WebsiteInstagramFacebookYoutubePurchase Elena’s FilmThis episode was made possible by:⁠FullWell⁠ - code BELOVED10 for 10% off the best prenatal vitamins and men's virility vitamins on the planet!⁠BiOptimizers⁠ - code BELOVED for 10% off the only sleep aid you'll ever need!⁠Organifi⁠ - code BELOVED for 20% off their Glow blend!⁠Rosemary Meran, CIHt⁠ - Soul Connections offers one-on-one sessions (virtually or in-person) that support deep transformation and bonding between mothers and their unborn babies.Connect with me:InstagramTikTokBeloved Holistics ShopMedical Disclaimer: The Holistic OBGYN Podcast is an educational program.
