Ep. 140 - Unlocking the Power of Affirmations: The Science and Spirituality of Inner Talk
with Bettina Zagoni
Welcome to Episode 140
Our inner dialogue shapes our experiences, our relationships, and even our physical well-being before, during, and after birth. It can help cultivate a mindset of empowerment, resilience, and self-compassion— qualities that are invaluable during such a transformative time. By bringing awareness to our inner dialogue and intentionally reframing it, we have the power to reshape our experiences and create more positive outcomes for ourselves and our families.
Bettina “Tina” Zagoni is a perinatal consultant, doula, and creator of the transformative Modern Goddess affirmation card decks. Her mission is to make these tools accessible to women worldwide, empowering them through the journey of motherhood.
Tune in as Debra and Bettina discuss the profound impact of affirmations on pregnancy, birth, and parenting, Tina’s personal journey of rewriting her birth narrative through the power of self-talk, her creation of the Modern Goddess affirmation cards, and her mission to make these empowering tools accessible to women worldwide, including introducing them into hospitals across Hungary.
