S4 EP127: Tamarin Oblowitz: Holistic Therapist and Healer - Homebirth/Long Labour

On today's episode we dive into the birth story of Tamarin – a practitioner renowned as a Holistic and Intuitive Therapist and Healer. Tamarin's story begins with a 13-month conception journey, where the weight of time began to cast doubts upon the arrival of their long-aweaited child.

Having wrestled with the complexities of fertility hormones, Tamarin eventually found solace in a natural alternative, a turning point that led her to  conceive a daughter. Her pregnancy became a chapter filled with a deep sense of gratitude, as she honoured the sacred connection between herself and the life growing within.

Instinctively, Tamarin knew that her ideal birthing environment was at home, where she could harness familiarity and security. Safeguarding her energy and shielding herself from projected fears, she kept this choice private, and surrounded herself with like-minded individuals who could provide the support and guidance she needed. Diving deep into her inner work, she confronted her fears and shadows, nurturing an unwavering belief in her body’s innate ability to birth her baby. 

Today, Tamarin takes us on her transformative journey through the fires of labour that ended in the profound moment of meeting her daughter, and shares the deep reverence that her husband held for her, as he witnessed her navigate the thresholds of creation.
