Christina's first experience with pregnancy and birth was not what she had imagined, due to her son being diagnosed with a rare birth defect early in the pregnancy. You can (and should!) listen to that story in Part one of this series. When her first son was around 18 months old, Christina discovered she was pregnant again—and she knew immediately that this birth would be a redemptive, sovereign experience. France can be a challenging place to have a baby at home, and many people mistakenly believe that home birth is illegal. But Christina connected with the right people and gained the knowledge she needed to navigate the French system, ensuring she wouldn't face any obstacles to birthing at home. She welcomed her second son at home, with just her partner present, and experienced a blissful postpartum. Christina would like to be a resource for other mothers who have had a baby diagnosed with gastroschisis, or otherwise connect with her story.

In this intimate reunion episode, I sit down with international Love and Relationship Coach for Women, Alex Croxford - five years after first crossing paths in a Conscious Conception Tarot Reading Alex booked with me, in which the message of her infedility also came through. (Yes we recap that - and the messages that came through from her gorgeous Spirit Baby!)What unfolded for Alex after 2020 became the catalyst for a profound unraveling and reawakening in Alex's life.We explore the rarely voiced story of a woman's journey in both infidelity - and infertility. Alex shares how cheating on her ex-husband, whilst walking through the pain of an IVF journey, became the doorway to her deepest healing.Alex opens up about how that unraveling led to divorce, a spiritual awakening, celibacy, quitting her career as a TV Executive, a new relationship, pregnancy loss, her viral reel thats been viewed over 7 million times, the creation of her business and healing retreats - where she now guides other women through the same dark terrain she once walked alone.We speak about the shame and secrecy surrounding women and cheating, what drives someone to cheat, soul contracts and how many women - like Alex - reach their breaking point after years of self-betrayal and emotional suppression.This conversation goes deep into the territories of grief, guilt, personal reckoning and ultimately - transformation.You'll hear about the sacred transformation that becomes possible when truth is finally spoken and how Alex's medicine from her own personal healing journey now supports other women in their own reclamation.Alex's InstagramAlex's Website Alex's PodcastAnita's InstagramBook a Private Reading HERE

This week on the podcast, I sit down with Lizzy, a mama of three and a graduate of my Homebirth Mentoring Program, who shares the deeply personal and powerful story of her second VBAC—a surprise pregnancy that became a profound journey of self-trust, healing and sovereign birth.With just 18 months between her babies, Lizzy found herself unexpectedly pregnant and unsure whether she would continue the pregnancy. But through deep inner work, radical honesty, and full-body alignment, she chose not only to keep the baby—but to freebirth on her own terms.In this episode, we talk about:

In this powerful episode, I'm joined by MatriBirth Mentor Institute student, Darrah, who shares her transformational journey—from working within the medical system as a nurse to reclaiming her autonomy as a freebirthing, wild, and instinct-led mother. After birthing her first two sons in hospitals, Darrah awakened to a deeper truth and radically shifted her path. Her story is one of courage, clarity, and coming home to herself—and it's sure to inspire birth workers and mothers alike.Follow Darrah @mamas.holistic.collective

Today's episode is a powerful testimony of transformation, healing, and freedom in Christ. I'm joined by a former New Ager who used to work closely with Freebirth Society. She taught yoga, embraced spiritual practices that many see as “empowering”—but behind it all, she was unknowingly caught in deep spiritual deception. Nya is a Christian, a wife, and a freebirthing stay at home mother who has built a successful business with her Instagram platform, sharing information with other women about birthing at home, medical freedom, and leaving the New Age occult to follow Jesus. In this conversation, she shares how she encountered Jesus in a way that completely changed everything. She opens up about her personal journey out of witchy birth work, what really happens behind the scenes at gatherings like the Matriarch Rising Festival, and the demonic activity she began to recognize once her eyes were opened. We also dive into her beautiful freebirth stories—what shifted in her approach to birth after leaving the New Age, and how surrendering to Jesus has brought more peace, clarity, and true empowerment than any ritual or affirmation ever could. If you've ever felt a stirring in your spirit around the “spiritual but not Biblical” side of birth work, or if you've been searching for truth in this space—this episode will speak directly to you.

In this episode, we call out the problems that have arisen as a result of adoption of and adherence to the Freebirth Society ideology while also holding space for a woman's legal and moral right to choose to have a Freebirth.Ultimately, this is about the need for leaders to act in integrity and for everyone to remember that rarely two truths exist in extremes. All choices are valid, however in order for them to be authentically empowered, they must be made with true informed consent and an informed risk assessment which is unlikely to happen if a birthworker has solely received a virtual training rooted in biases, hyperbole, and a lack of evidence, just as much as it's unlikely to happen with a fearful OB who is encouraging weekly routine ultrasounds and a 39 week induction.We unpack the overused and misused phrase “variations of normal” in order to delineate a few examples of what would actually be abnormal and a reason to seek additional support.Freebirth continues to be a valid choice, however women deserve to have the full scope of outcomes objectively presented to them in all fairness.Risk is inherently everywhere, and there will always be a mysterious element to loss, however the key is to walk into your pregnancy with a true sense of confidence and options rather than a false sense of one.Recommended resources:Free MOTR Questions Guide to Vet Your Birthkeeper/AttendantReddit, so you can be the judge of what's wrong with this organizationNathan Riley podcast episode featuring Kristine LauriaDr. Sarah Wickham's book “What's Right For Me”“Whose Body Is It” podcast episode featuring midwife Mary Lou SingletonSupport the showJOIN OUR NEW, PRIVATE COMMUNITY!

Ceiba's labor with her first child began after an orgasm (oxytocin, much?). The only midwife in her small Mexican town was called, but she happened to be away for the night.

In this episode with Anna, we get to hear about her early losses and then her first full-term pregnancy and unassisted home birth. Anna chose an unassisted birth and also a “wild” pregnancy, rooted in the firm belief that it is God alone who sustains her baby. Along the way she and her husband had to address fears, endure an unexpected more, and handle the disapproval of family members regarding their choices. But they knew deep down that free birth best fit Anna's personality and relationship, so they persevered.However, they did dip into the hospital setting more than once, utilizing it for help as needed. In one instance, it provided the reassurance they needed to continue, and in the other instance it created a lot of hurt. We hope you enjoy her story!Birth Story DisclaimerThe choices, beliefs and opinions of the mamas sharing their stories are as individual as the storyteller herself and do not necessarily reflect the beliefs or recommended choices of Lauren and/or Brooke.SHOW NOTES “FOOTER”Email us to say hi: holywildbirth@gmail.comHang out with us in the Rooted In Eden PMA (off-facebook, private community)Put in a request for future topics and/or submit a question for future Q&A episodes: Fill out the formGet on the waitlist for the next cohort of Hearthmother JourneyApply to tell your birth story on the podcast: sisterbirth.com/podcast-guestFrom Lauren:InstagramMidwifery consults: Email  lauren.rootedineden@gmail.comFrom Brooke:InstagramTrust God, Trust Birth Workshop - a 5-part high-level roadmap to a confident home birth (pay what you can)Faith-Filled Home Birth Workshop - a free, 3-part video series delivered to your inboxEmbrace Birth Journey - comprehensive and holistic faith-based home birth preparation (courses + private community)

Today on The Natural Birth Podcast we have LindseyLindsey is a mama of 2 from Denver Colorado. She grew up dancing, running, practicing yoga and loving the outdoors. She owns a bakery with her husband Matt, dances professionally and is a hardcore extrovert. Today she shares about her first birth at a 33 yrs old that was set to happen at a birth center. She was eventually transferred to the hospital during labour because the midwife couldn't get a good read on the baby's heart rate. Lindsey birthed him naturally just 2 hours later. The birth was ok but not what she had wanted. In between babies she did an online holistic doula training and became pregnant again when her son turned 2 but miscarried at 13 weeks. She birthed her 13 week old baby naturally and later got pregnant again 2 months later. During this time she realized that she herself was born unassisted by accident and felt called to try that. She wasn't originally trying to have a wild pregnancy but recalled not learning much at all at the appointments with her son and since she didn't want any scans this time she just never saw anyone because she felt good her whole pregnancy. Her daughter came quickly at 38 weeks on a super blue moon. It was INCREDIBLE. Just Lindsey laboring with her husband who helped her catch her baby.Curious about Lindsey?

In this episode of The Midwitch Podcast, we continue the Rite Remembering solo series with Part 3, exploring the Trinity Wound and its deep connection to the broken and lost rite of passage of birth.Many women feel an ache—a sense of incompleteness—around their birth experiences, even when their births were seemingly “good.”This episode unpacks the Trinity Wound and how it reveals itself when the true rite of passage was interrupted, broken, or lost for birthing women transitioning into motherhood.To support this reclamation, I share three ways women can begin to retrieve the lost rite of passage that was taken from them- including powerful journal prompts to support you.I explore the vital role of spiritual mentorship in pregnancy—the often-missing first phase of a woman's rite of passage.In This Episode I Cover:+ What the Trinity Wound is and how it relates to birth as a lost initiation+ The unhealed grief of a broken rite of passage and why it lingers in the body and spirit+ Three ways to reclaim the lost rite of passage of birth—with journal prompts for deep healing+ How reclaiming the rite of passage of birth heals personal and collective wounds+ The importance of spiritual mentorship during pregnancy and why it is the foundation for an embodied birth initiationI also invite you to share your reflections: If this episode resonated with you, I'd love to hear your thoughts.

In this episode of Births at Home: The Podcast, I sit down with Kelly, a mom of four, birth doula, and birth photographer, to talk about her journey from hospital births to her first home birth in November 2024. While home birth is often portrayed on social media as calm, peaceful, and pain-free, Kelly's experience was a reminder that birth is raw, intense, and deeply personal.She opens up about the challenges of pregnancy, transitioning from OB care to traditional midwifery, and the unexpected realities of labor—including a five-hour pushing phase that tested her physically and emotionally. We also discuss how social media can create unrealistic expectations about birth and why it's important to honor every experience, even when it doesn't fit the “perfect” birth narrative.What You'll Hear in This Episode:✨ The realities of home birth vs. how it's often portrayed online✨ Kelly's journey from hospital births to her first home birth✨ The challenges of balancing doula work, military life, and pregnancy✨ Dropping OB care and trusting traditional midwifery for her fourth pregnancy✨ The emotional and physical demands of a long pushing phase✨ The importance of not comparing your birth to what you see on social media✨ Postpartum reflections—accepting your unique birth experience✨ Kelly's work as a birth doula, photographer, and her upcoming move to FloridaKelly's story is a powerful reminder that birth is unpredictable, intense, and transformative—and that no one experience defines what birth “should” look like.Resources & Links:

In every traditional initiation, the threshold is faced in solitude.So if birth is supposed to be a rite of passage…  Within 'modern' birth circles, we've been told that birth is a rite of passage - and women reclaim birth when we honour this. Books have been written about it!But what was also suggested, was a midwife stands at the threshold—guardian-ing the rite.Here's the problem: A true rite of passage does not have a guardian. A rite of passage requires the initiate to walk alone. That is it's ENTIRE intention, and purpose - as a rite.So why has birth been framed differently?And why are birthworkers placed at the center of something that - by its very nature - must be faced alone?When you look deeper at traditional initiations across cultures, the structure is always the same: 1 The initiate is prepared in advance. Spiritual mentorship before entering the wild.2 The threshold is crossed alone.No one guiding, or to outsource to.3 The return is witnessed.The moment the initiate emerges, changed, and is fully received by the community. How did birth—the most ancient, organic initiation of all—get framed differently?Why, when it comes to birth, do they believe a woman cannot do it?Do they think she is incapable?Do they believe birth is different?Do they not trust that every woman can walk into the wild alone?Something isn't adding up.And I'm getting loud about it, because it's keeping women disconnected and disempowered.And I feel like there's an agenda. And I'm not OK with it.Make sure you're following The Midwitch Podcast for Part 2 of the 'Rite Remembering' SOLO SERIES episodes - and join us @themidwitch on Instagram to follow the conversation. It's going to be BIG!

Wylie Mei's FREEBIRTH was an emotional roller coaster filled with silent labor, watching a two year old, and being in total denial that I was actually in labor. We shot this video freshly postpartum when the story was still new! Enjoy

Robyn describes her first birth as a ‘weird, numb experience.' She was in the hospital, on an epidural, and slept through most of it. However, a family car accident became a turning point for Robyn, prompting her to make holistic health changes for her family. As she began to explore ways to take charge of their healthcare more naturally, her perspective on birth shifted. By the time she was pregnant with her second child, she knew she would give birth at home, with a midwife. (In fact, the midwife she chose had been a former guest on this show!) For her third birth, Robyn chose to give birth at home, unassisted. In reflecting on her birth experiences, Robyn shared with me: ‘I want to address the idea that a midwife or doula will save you during labor or birth, or somehow prepare you better than you can prepare yourself for birth. Instead, birth should be viewed as an opportunity to fully surrender and trust yourself.' If you love the show, I would greatly appreciate a review on  Spotify or Apple Podcasts!  Follow me on Instagram @healingbirth Do you have a birth story you'd like to share on the podcast, or would like to otherwise connect?

Today on the podcast, Kacea shares her beautiful freebirth story. Her journey to freebirth is a wonderful representation of the sovereign birth movement making its way through the world. From her upbringing with a mother who birthed at home, to having an entire friend group of freebirthers, Kacea was able to deter any negativity and fear that was brought her way, and with the support of her partner, she brought her son earthside.  Follow Kacea on Instagram @kaceao✨The FBS private membership community, “The Lighthouse” is OPEN! - Doors are open through TODAY February 28th at 11:59pm! - https://www.freebirthsociety.com/membership✨ Enrollment is open for MatriBirth Family, our signature Sovereign Childbirth Education program.
