Part 2 - Personal Choices, Powerful Families: Deciding What’s Right for You with Ashley Brichter, Founder of BirthSmarter

Bougie Mom Friends

Every family’s journey is unique, and what works for one may not fit for another. In this episode, we explore how parents navigate the overwhelming sea of advice, opinions, and societal pressures to make decisions that align with their individual values, needs, and family dynamics. Whether it's choosing birth methods, parenting styles, or daily routines, we emphasize the importance of trusting your instincts, respecting your partner's voice, and creating a parenting path that feels authentic to you.

We'll also dive into how to find balance amidst conflicting advice, build confidence in your choices, and create a family culture that reflects your priorities. It’s not about doing it “right” by someone else’s standards—it’s about discovering what’s right for your family and thriving on your own terms.

We also shine a spotlight on Birth Smarter, a platform that provides expert guidance for modern parents to approach childbirth with confidence. Founded by Ashley Brichter, a certified childbirth educator and doula, Birth Smarter offers inclusive, evidence-based education for parents at all stages of pregnancy.
