#6 | She’s Having Her 10th Baby - So Why Is She Still Scared to Give Birth?
The Discerning Mother
What if you’ve given birth nine times and still feel terrified for baby number ten? In this episode, Brigid unpacks a powerful conversation with a mother expecting her tenth child, yet still battling fear and anxiety about labor. Brigid discusses how they explored the deep-rooted fears that have followed her through each birth, from her first c-section to the “horrible” labors that came after. Why does the fear persist? And, more importantly, how can she finally let it go and step into birth with confidence, peace, and even joy? This episode proves that no matter how many children you have, fear will keep showing up until you heal the root. If birth still feels scary to you, this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.

About Podcast
Welcome to The Discerning Mother, the podcast where building a thriving business and becoming a whole woman are not two different goals. Most wellness podcasts will tell you to regulate your nervous system. Most business podcasts will tell you to try another strategy.
This one will tell you why those won't work.
This is where faith, health, and business strategy collide.
Each week we talk about:
- How your nervous system is either building your business or quietly sabotaging it
- Why rewiring your nervous system and identity unlocks what regulation never could
- Real strategy for scaling without burning the woman behind the brand
- What Catholic/Christian theology has to say about money, ambition, and becoming
- How to have more without doing more
- Doing it all while being a present, joyful, peaceful mother & 6 or 7 figure business owner
This is not hustle culture with a rosary or prayers on top. This is the real work; the kind that changes what you are capable of in your business, your body, your marriage, and your motherhood (& by default, the world! Right, St. Mother Teresa?!).
Whether you are listening as you prep for a client call or folding laundry, it's time for you to dive in!
