EPISODE 24: Naming Obstetric Violence and Telling the Truth — with Cristen Pascucci
In this episode, I sat down with my longtime friend Cristen Pascucci, founder of Birth Monopoly, to have a real and honest conversation about obstetric violence and what’s actually happening in maternity care. This isn’t always an easy topic, but it’s one we can’t ignore if we want things to change.
We talked about:
What obstetric violence really is and why naming it matters
Cristen’s personal birth experience and how it led her into advocacy
The stories of families who felt dismissed, coerced, or violated in their care
Why there’s resistance—even within the birth community—to talking about these issues
The importance of truth-telling instead of minimizing or gaslighting
How systems and past experiences shape the way people are treated in birth
Cristen’s film Mother May I and the heart behind creating it
This episode is about being willing to see what’s real, even when it’s uncomfortable. Because resilience isn’t about ignoring harm—it’s about naming it, learning from it, and expecting better moving forward.

Working with Traci has been one of the most transformative experiences of my life.
I didn’t fully understand the power of having someone truly listen, challenge, and support me until I started this journey with her. Her ability to cut through the noise and help me see what really matters is something I’ll always be grateful for.
She creates a space that feels safe, honest, and empowering. I come to her feeling stuck and overwhelmed, and after a coaching session I feel clear, confident, and grounded in who I am and where I’m going. Her guidance helps me reconnect with my purpose and take real, meaningful steps forward.
If you’re considering working with her — don’t hesitate. She’s the real deal.

Working with Traci has been a game-changer!
Her incredible clarity cuts through the noise, pinpointing exactly what’s needed in any situation. She’s honest yet deeply empathetic, striking the perfect balance to guide meaningful growth. Traci’s also a blast to work with—her energy is infectious, and she delivers practical, actionable guidance that truly moves the needle, rather than just nodding along. I’ve gained so much direction and confidence thanks to her unique approach!
