I believe there are 2 types of learning. There is the one that we gain from books that give us the basis to share current and valuable information, The second is the learning and emotional intelligence we develop from our life experiences. For me, this deeper knowledge is a result of birthing and raising my three daughters, attending births of my grandchildren and the inspiration and learning that has come from each birth I have supported.
