Birth, Breath, and Death: Meditations on Motherhood, Chaplaincy, and Life as a Doula by Amy Wright Glenn
4.0
A beautiful glimpse into a building a life and career filled with empathy and compassion. At times, Glenn's writing becomes ethereal and esoteric, lifting above an emotional plane even I felt capable or desiring of connecting to and found terribly distracting. The story woven throughout of her relationship with her mother was moving and painful to relate to. I am drawn to the paths she chose to nurture, and loved hearing both how her experiences led her to Unitarian Universalism, and how she expresses and experiences her faith as a UU while holding the meaningful faith experiences of her childhood close. I'm really looking forward to her new book.
