Rowan Twosisters, CPM, LM  is a Midwife, Aware Practitioner, and STREAM Pelvic Specialist. Twosisters joined us for an amazing interview to talk all about Cervical Scarring.

If you’re someone with a uterus or knows someone with a uterus, this is a fantastic episode to listen to. Cervical scarring can sound big and scary and feel quite overwhelming, but Twosisters breaks the information down for us into simple, educational pieces.

Inside this book, you'll learn:
- Why scar tissue forms on the cervix
- Why almost no one cares until it becomes a labor block
- What you can do to keep it from derailing your birth preferences

Labor and birth can be full of wild cards, a cervix that prevents a straightforward delivery doesn't have to be one of them. #ounceofprevention
