45: How birth trauma survivor, April Hagan has come full circle to live a happy and fulfilling life, despite pelvic organ prolapse

DESCRIPTION

Today, April Hagen is bringing you her journey that talks about her birth trauma for about a split second. And the reason why I'm sharing this with you is that she talks a lot about what happened next...

I think it's important to know how women can work through this trauma space, and seek appropriate, help and support to come out the other side to continue living a fulfilling life. 

What I think you're going to love the most is that after her experience and despite living with pelvic organ prolapse, she has still created an amazing business that started as a simple side hustle on something that she just loved doing.

Now she has this amazing business where prolapse is not the center of her universe and her life, and her career are back on track.

So if this is you and you've been through a birthing experience that was traumatic, you've been left with pelvic organ prolapse or other injuries, and you are looking for some hope, for some light at the end of the tunnel, you'll need to listen to this episode with April Hagan.
