In this week's show I spoke with the fabulous Amy Sherer.
Amy is an Endorsed Registered Midwife and International Board Certified Lactation Consultant. She runs her own Lactation Consultancy, 'Her Luminary', as well as working at an outpatient clinic in Metro Melbourne.
Amy began her journey in New Zealand, where she trained as a direct entry Midwife.
As she touches upon in this candid discussion, she experienced and continues to deal with the clash in culture of values between the woman-centric approach of her beginnings in NZ and the medical model maternity system that dominates in Australia.
This conversation was an insight into the personal world of a dedicated, woman-centred clinician. Here's a summary of topics covered in today's episode:
