Season 3, Ep. 3 - Our Empowering Homebirth Story

In this episode, my husband James and I share our intimate, powerful home birth story of our second baby, Latham. It was such a wild and empowering journey! Here I weave the tale of each step of the journey, plus what we did to prepare for the birth. 

I am so passionate about rewriting the narrative around birth. I believe birth can be the portal to a woman’s deepest feminine power, a blueprint that lasts her whole life (and the baby’s!). 

This is a great listen for anyone who is pregnant or considering a home birth.
