38- Reclaiming Birth: The Power of Midwifery Care
02/25/25 • 30 min
For far too long, the modern birth system has been built around managing birth instead of trusting it. Hospital policies, routine interventions, and a one-size-fits-all approach have stripped birth of what it was meant to be—a powerful, physiological event that belongs to YOU.
But here’s the truth: Midwifery care is making a comeback, and for good reason.
In this episode, we’re diving deep into:
🔥 How birth shifted from being a woman-led experience to a medical event
🔥 Why midwifery care leads to better outcomes for moms and babies
🔥 What you can do to take back control of your birth experience
If you’re feeling lost, unsupported, or like the system isn’t really built for you—this episode is for you, mama. Because birth isn’t something that happens to you. It’s yours. And midwifery? It’s the key to taking it back.

37- Breaking the "Once a Cesarean, Always a Cesarean" Cycle
In this episode, we’re tackling the pervasive myth that once a woman has a cesarean, she’s destined to have repeat surgeries. “Once a Cesarean, Always a Cesarean?” is one of the most harmful and outdated beliefs in the birth world, and it’s time to break it down.
We’ll explore where this myth came from, why it still influences birth practices today, and how it limits the choices of women who have had a cesarean. But don’t worry—we’re not just talking about the problem. We’re also offering solutions, including how to advocate for a VBAC, why the system needs to change, and what women can do to reclaim control of their birth experiences.
If you’ve ever been told your birth options are limited because of a cesarean, this episode is for you. Let’s change the narrative, challenge the system, and empower ourselves to make the best decisions for our bodies and our babies.

39- COLLABORATION: The Future of Women's Health
For far too long, birth has been placed in the wrong hands. Instead of midwives leading women’s care and referring to OBs when complications arise, we’ve flipped the system upside down—treating every pregnancy like a medical crisis waiting to happen.
In this episode, we’re breaking down:
✨ Why pregnancy is NOT an illness that needs to be “managed”
✨ The historical divide between midwives and OBs—and why it still exists
✨ How collaborative care should work (and why it’s the key to better birth outcomes)
✨ What YOU can do to take back control of your birth
It’s time to rewrite the narrative. Midwives and OBs aren’t competitors—they should be partners. And when they work together? Birth is better, safer, and more empowering.
👉 Tune in now to learn how collaborative care is the future of women’s health.
