Indra discusses the shutting down of essential midwifery practices in Colorado, the state of midwifery in Colorado, finding joy and passion in work, and the incredible growth and direction of the Birth Rights Bar Association. Plenty of shout outs, a guest co-host, and fun in this news podcast.

Indra Wood Lusero, is a Staff Attorney with National Advocates for Pregnant Women, and founder of Elephant Circle and the Birth Rights Bar Association. Indra has been a lawyer, teacher, performance artist, doula, wall-paper hanger, entrepreneur and more. This interdisciplinary approach is part of what makes Indra a Social Midwife (a term coined by Vincent Harding to describe people who help give birth to a new way). Indra has been dedicated to dismantling racism and white supremacy and building more equitable organizations/teams/systems since attending their first "Undoing Racism" workshop at the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom Leadership Institute in 1991. Indra gave birth at home in 2003, after being the non-laboring parent of a hospital-born baby in 2001. As a genderqueer Latinx parent rooted in the Rocky Mountain West, Indra is committed to creating a world where all worlds fit.
