On today’s show, Sarah shares a common and familiar story of women who trade in their pregnancy and birth desires in order to make other people comfortable. With her first child, Sarah had a homebirth, but many of the decisions she made were for her partner- and even for her midwife. Sarah shares how it wasn’t until she freebirthed her second baby, that she realized what went wrong with her first birth. In her third and most recent birth, Sarah shares the riveting and heartbreaking story of her baby spending his first hour of life between the fluid spaces of life and death, and his first weeks of life in the NICU.

Doing The Work To Own Your Birth: Clarke's Inspiring First Birth
Free Birth Society
05/15/20 • 68 min
Today we have a special episode with a first time mom in our community. Clarke found a registered midwife to attend her that also held willingness to center the mother, in her entirety. I thought this story was worth telling on our “Free Birth” podcast as it highlights how determined pregnant women can hone in on what they want and actually get it! Midwife attended births, of course, can be wonderful, and I wanted to highlight one that was, in hopes that it will inspire women to speak up and commit to what they want. And of course - to encourage midwives to center the women they serve. Join us today for a lighthearted sweet story of the wisdom of a young new mother diving into the work of bringing a child earth-side.

Where Does Your Loyalty Lie? With Attorney Kara Dansky (Part 2 of our 3 Part Emergency Series)
Free Birth Society
02/23/21 • 70 min
Kara Dansky is a feminist and attorney, here to talk with us today about Executive Order 13988. In this EO, the definition of sex is rewritten to include gender identity throughout all federally funded agencies.
Kara brings us a message of hope-filled action as she informs us of what our future will look like if we don’t protect sex-segregated spaces for women and girls.
How many women are we going to sacrifice at the altar of this ideology?
