The Birth and Rebirth Podcast

Today we are joined by a lovely mama who has asked to be anonymous as she bravely shares her story and experience. For her privacy, I am not sharing her name/social media. We discuss her birth story, her post-birth transfer to the hospital, and navigating postpartum with rheumatoid arthritis. We also touch on freebirth dogma and releasing dangerous ideologies and going within for guidance.Here is a link to Sue's podcast, as discussed in the episode: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sues-healthy-minutes-with-sue-becker-the-bread-beckers/id1609279985Follow me on IG: @tiffanychristinahWork with me:Purchase the DIY Pelvic Steaming Workshop: https://beacons.ai/tiffanyholmesBirth Trauma Debrief: https://beacons.ai/tiffanyholmesXX

Hi friends! Today I welcome Raina on the podcast. She shares with us her two birth stories - her first birth being at a birth center, which was not quite what she was expecting, so when she got pregnant again, she knew she had to plan something different. She wanted a birth where she was the authority in her space. She wanted to take her power back from her first birth experience, so that's exactly what she did. She went on to have a beautiful, sovereign birth at home with her husband, son, and birth keeper. Raina is a powerful example of what I talk about so often in the birth space - it's never too late to take your power back and birth on your terms!

Hi friends! On today's episode I welcome IBCLC & Doula, Amber Ginn, also known as @nourishedrootslactation We had a lovely conversation about the relationship between birth and breastfeeding, why every mama should prioritize having a physiological birth, and some common breastfeeding challenges/misunderstandings. Amber shares her two birth stories, which started for her in her teen years. She has such a unique and powerful story!

Hi friends! Today I welcome Laura, @natural_lau to share her wild pregnancy and unassisted birth story! Laura chose this path as a first time mom. She spent her wild pregnancy on her land in Peru, trusting her baby and her body. Laura's birth story is a testament to how wide the spectrum of normal really is. She tuned in with her intuition for reassurance that everything is okay and she has no regrets. Enjoy this one, mamas!

Hi friends! On today's episode I welcome back Oyuny, just 6 weeks postpartum, to share her most recent freebirth story. This will be her second time sharing on The Birth & Rebirth Podcast, so be sure to check out episode #6 to hear her previous birth stories, too! This most recent birth that she shares of is a beautiful story of what surrendering to birth can look like. She very openly shares how this birth challenged her in ways she never experienced before and I love all of the raw details she shares with us. Thank you so much for your wisdom & vulnerability, Oyuny! Enjoy!

Hi friends! I'm so excited for today's episode, as I welcome Diana Forsell from Healing Birth Podcast to share her two birth stories and some nuggets of wisdom in the realm of healing birth trauma. Diana planned a homebirth for her first son's birth, but things did not go the way they were planned and Diana ended up having an unwanted c-section. Needless to say, she was traumatized from that experience and knew she needed healing before having her second child. Diana shares a bit about her healing journey and the redemptive homebirth that followed! Follow Diana on IG @healingbirth and binge her amazing podcast, Healing Birth on Apple or Spotify!

Hi friends! On today's episode I welcome Veda (@veda.revival) to the podcast to share her incredible sovereign birth stories! Her first birth was midwife assisted, but her midwife stayed out of the room during the birth. Then she went on to freebirth with just her husband and baby present. She also shares about her journey to discovering freedom, choosing not to get a birth certificate for her son, and why she chose to have a lotus birth. Veda's stories and insight are a gift and I hope you all enjoy listening as much as I did! You can find Veda and all of her lovely offerings such as The Lotus Kit & resources to get your baby a passport without a birth certificate at @veda.revival on IG!

Hi friends! Today we have my friend, Kurston Clark aka @benevolent.birth, on the podcast. We have a very candid conversation about the importance of taking full responsibility of your pregnancy and birth, the illusion of safety, and how to mindfully choose your birth support if you desire it. So often, women outsource for their birth because that's what society tells you you “have to do” and it seems to be the safest option to most people; however this is simply an illusion because even the most experienced care provider cannot ultimately control the outcome of your birth. Not only that, but oftentimes the people we invite into our birth space end up interfering in a way that disturbs birth. Choosing who steps into your birth space is so important. I hope this episode resonates with you!

Being the Authority in Your Birth ~ Audrey's Three Birth Stories ~ 1 Breech in Hospital, 1 Precipitous Homebirth w/ a Midwife, & 1 Freebirth Hi friends! Today we are graced by Audrey Ross from @ajoyfulbirth and her three incredible birth stories. I absolutely loved hearing her tell these stories because even though her first two birth were technically "in the system", Audrey embodied her power and trust in birth throughout these experiences. Her first, born breech in a hospital, then choosing a midwife assisted homebirth for her second, and with her third pregnancy realizing that she can do this all on her own without a provider. Audrey is a birthkeeper and Queen of birth memes. She is full of wisdom and trust in birth. So many gold nuggets to pick up from this conversation! I hope you all enjoy

~Birth Story Medicine & Healing the Postpartum Pelvic Floor w/ Dr. Rebecca Cohen~ Hi friends! Today I am joined by Dr. Rebecca Cohen, @fullcircleholistic, as she shares her 5 birth stories, her journey supporting women as an OB to a more aligned independent home birth approach, and healing her postpartum pelvic floor. I first began following Rebecca after hearing her full story on the Free Birth Society Podcast and my mind was kinda blown. Then, I recently stumbled upon a beautiful, undisturbed birth (@humblymarij -episode 10 if you'd like to listen to the birth story) to which Rebecca was her birth attendant! I knew I had to invite her on! I'm so impressed by Rebecca's journey because she's a real testament to what it can look like leaving the medical system and trusting your body, while living in your authority and authenticity. She shares about her journey healing multiple prolapses postpartum and even made an incredible course to help you take your postpartum pelvic floor healing into your hands. Enjoy!

Hello friends! On this weeks episode, I'm chatting solo about the importance of owning your pregnancy and birth, regardless of age! You're not too young to take full responsibility for your birth, you don't have to wait until you have more experience or be “qualified” for the birth of your dreams. Your body carries the blueprint to birth & motherhood. As women we have a deep desire to birth in freedom and mother the same. Society tells us otherwise. Especially as young women, we're told we don't know what's best to us, our bodies, and our babies. I share about my journey as a teenager being pregnant (13 years ago) & how I navigated through the system, how I desired a natural home birth, but was looked at as ridiculous and ultimately I submitted to the status quo.

When God Writes the Birth Plan ~ Mari's Sovereign Birth Stories Hi friends, welcome to The Birth & Rebirth Podcast. I'm your host Tiffany Holmes. In this week's episode, I invite Mari on to the podcast to share her incredible birth stories with us. I stumbled upon a clip of her most recent birth and was just in awe. I was moved by how raw and undisturbed the birth was... how embodied she was in her God-given power. And when I read in the comments that she had birth witnesses surrounding her ~ I was even more impressed that no one stepped in to disturb the sacred moments immediately post-birth. Time stood still for Mari, after she birthed her third baby - it took her 30 seconds to come back to reality and pick up her baby. Most people would have freaked out and disturbed this sacred moment, but Mari so carefully selected who she invited into her birth space - an OB turned Traditional Midwife who genuinely trusts birth. Mari's birth stories are proof that when you surrender to God's design of birth, incredible things happen. And also, that God writes the best birth plans. Mari says she never would've imagine giving birth outside of a hospital, yet she didn't have one baby in the hospital. She tells us about her first birth which was precipitous and happened in the car and her two beautiful homebirth stories. Enjoy!

Sometimes we plan our baby's birth but ultimately God's plan is superior and always the better one. Today I speak to Joelle as she shares her story of birthing in the hospital for her first baby's birth, feeling unfulfilled she knows she will never give birth in a hospital again, she ends up meeting her husband, finding God, and getting pregnant again...they plan for a home birth with a midwife, but God had other plans for them. She goes on to birthing her baby unassisted, something she didn't know she needed, but was so grateful to experience. Joelle briefly shares about finding God after exiting the New Age. Her stories are a blessing to hear. Connect with Joelle on IG @joelle_lane Hey mama - are you pregnant and dreaming of a natural birth but fear is taking over?

Hey everyone! It's Tiffany, your host of The Birth & Rebirth Podcast. On today's episode, my friend Kurston holds space for me while I share my daughter's birth story ~ a traumatic experience for me, that took a couple of years to fully heal from. I share this story for the mamas who have birth trauma & for the mamas who seek healing. I want to share that it's not only possible, but that our trauma plays a purpose in our life. I take you all through the specifics of the birth and how my medical midwife deceived me and ultimately abandoned me during my birth. Trigger warning for those mamas who are not looking to hear a traumatic birth story (totally understandable)!
