In this episode, I speak with Emma Miele, an ICF-certified coach and Founder of The Breathing Room LLC, about choosing to be a mother, egg-freezing, and grieving old life visions to embrace new ones.
The Breathing Room is not only Emma’s coaching platform but also a reminder to give ourselves breathing room to be where we naturally are in the moment and to remain curious about why we think things should be a certain way. She is a true embodiment of living what she teaches!
She shares how she is approaching the choice to be a mother. We discuss social pressures, egg freezing, and the business of birth. There’s a lot of fear-based and expensive messaging in our societies about choosing to have a child, which intentionally preys on people’s vulnerabilities about making that choice.
Emma shares how she is currently in a grieving process for the life she thought she was going to live, which included marriage and children, to gain more space to live the life she is actually living. A person’s value is not inherently wrapped up in their childbearing status, which our culture still deeply struggles with, and Emma shares how she is rewriting this mother code.
