It is with very heavy hearts that we share about the loss of our baby girl born far too soon. At a routine pregnancy appointment, our doctor could not find a heartbeat. Shortly after they sent us in for an ultrasound where the technician said words we will never forget, “I am so sorry I do not have good news.” That is when we got the gender reveal we never hoped for and also the news that our baby had a genetic condition that took her life around 17 weeks gestation. The news felt unimaginable. The grief is absolutely devastating. But we feel so much gratitude for the time that we did get to have with her. And we still have hope. Hope has continued to show up for us in so many ways. For now we will grieve and continue to think of ways to honor her life offline. Thoughts and prayers are more than welcome. Thank you everyone for celebrating this precious life with us for the past 17 weeks.❤️ Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

With remarkable honesty and grace, Caroline opens up about the emotional and ethical complexities of medical decision-making, the realities of living with a terminal illness, and the enduring power of love and legacy. She reflects on her upbringing, her relationship with mortality, and the lessons she hopes to pass on to her daughter. This episode is a testament to the strength of the human spirit in the face of unimaginable challenges.

In this episode, I'm joined by Ash Anderson, mother of three and recent graduate of The MatriBirth Mentor Institute. After a traumatic induction with her first baby, Ash was certain she was done having children. But what she came to realize was that it wasn't birth she was finished with—it was the hospital.We unpack what it took for Ash to walk away from the industrial model of care, how she and her husband navigated the residual fear from her first birth, and why healing her relationship with motherhood was a necessary precursor to welcoming another baby.From being coerced into interventions to catching her third baby alone in a moment of pure presence, Ash offers a grounded and powerful testimony to the transformation that becomes possible when a woman chooses trust, sovereignty, and self-responsibility.You'll Learn:Why “just in case” inductions increase trauma and strip women of autonomyHow hospital birth plans are powerless against coercive systemsWhat subtle manipulation in late pregnancy says about industrial birth prioritiesWhy even “holistic” midwives still operate within controlling paradigmsHow freebirth dissolves fear and restores deep body-trustWhy preparing for postpartum is a radical act of self-respectHow birth witnessed by children shapes the future of womanhoodWhat it means to birth alone and discover your strength, resilience, and sovereigntyThis episode is a reminder that birth doesn't have to be micromanaged, feared, or medicalized. It can be simple. It can be sacred. It can be yours if you choose it.Timestamps:[00:00] Introduction[02:11] Realizing the hospital birth system wasn't aligned with her values[14:16] Traumatic induction and vow to never birth that way again[19:39] Perspective shift on motherhood and discovering freebirth[32:52] Her first transformative experiencing freebirthing at home[50:04] Unexpected second freebirth completely alone[58:10] Breaking birth narratives and giving her children a new storyIf you want to connect more with Ash, follow her on Instagram and check out her website.Find more from Emilee on Instagram, YouTube and the Free Birth Society website.Disclaimer: Free Birth Society, LLC of North Carolina shares personal and educational stories and experiences related to freebirth and holistic care.

My guest for our first episode of season 16 is the lovely Grace Mongey Gernon. Grace has been working full time as an influencer for the past nine years – there was somewhat of an urgency with getting Grace's episode recorded, because when we spoke she was 39 weeks pregnant and eagerly awaiting the arrival of her third child, a little boy who's name she's already got embroidered on a little jumper for when he's born. We talk about the transition she's about to face from two children to three, and the age gap between her other two being big enough that going back into nappies and night feeds will be a huge change to their life all over again. We chat about her life online, how her family feel about her work as an influencer, and how trolling almost made her give it all up to be a midwife, but how now she's in a good place mentally and feels good about it again. Grace is so loved online for her no nonsense approach and for being upfront and honest about her reality. this was a lovely episode to record and while nobody went into labour during it, it's still worth a listen. Back next week with more. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
