The Free Birth Society Podcast features honest, gripping, inspiring, and transformative freebirth stories hosted by the founder Emilee Saldaya in conversation with wild women worldwide. In the vast tapestry of childbirth experiences, a thread runs undisturbed, unmedicated, and true to its ancestral roots: freebirth. This differs from your usual home birth with doulas or midwives in attendance. Freebirth stands apart, where birthing is solely in the hands of the birthing woman, accompanied only by her intuition, rhythms of nature, witnessed by her family.The Free Birth Podcast invites you to a unique corner of the universe where we dive deep into the raw essence of birth, untamed and unassisted. Pushing against the tides of modern obstetrics and its violent approach, we venture into stories of women who've boldly chosen to claim this primal rite of passage. Here, we're not merely sharing tales; we're challenging the status quo and redefining the very narrative of childbirth.As we unravel discussions on rights in childbirth, dissect varied care models, and amplify the unfiltered voices of freebirthing women from around the planet, our purpose remains clear: to spotlight the distinction and significance of wild birth. This isn't an argument against the myriad ways women choose to birth, but rather an affirmation that freebirth has its revered space in the continuum of birth choices.Join us in celebrating a movement that underscores the powerful message and has changed the lives of thousands: Birth, in its purest form, is not a medical event but a profoundly personal journey. The Free Birth Society Podcast is your compass to navigate and rediscover that journey.*Freebirth = Birthing in the absence of any hired professionals, away from medical institutions or their agents. Also known as family birth, unassisted birth, wild birth. *Sovereign birth = Birthing outside of the medical paradigm, inclusive of births with authentic midwives and doulas. We include many stories on the show where women birthed outside of the medical system with doulas and radical birth keepers. While these births are not freebirths, they are certainly sovereign births! more

I support moms through their fertility and pregnancy journeys and help have trauma free birth stories and labor stories. When moms embrace their pregnant bellies and their pregnancy and await the arrival of their baby or babies they are going to feel many emotions and have many visions about what will happen during child birth. 'Is this normal?' 'What does a contraction feel like?' 'What does the day of labor look like?' 'What is a Doula?' I want every mom's birth story to be peaceful, happy and a memory that they will love to share. Birth Story podcast is my way to provide childbirth education through story telling in the comfort of your home and to prepare a mom for motherhood with any birth story that unfolds for their pregnancy, labor and delivery. If a pregnant mom uses an OBGYN, a midwife, a doula, a birth doula, or has a home birth, water birth, natural birth, C-section, cesarean birth, hospital birth, medicated birth, epidural birth, pitocin birth, an induction or induced labor, are having multiple babies or a single baby, a birth plan or no birth plan; I started this podcast to help moms learn and prepare for their labor and delivery and birth though birth story telling.

Do you dream of a natural birth but secretly wonder if you'll actually be able to do it when labor gets intense? Do you believe God designed your body for birth, yet struggle to find Catholic resources that actually prepare you for it? Are you tired of feeling lost and overwhelmed over conflicting birth advice, and don't know who to trust for information? And lastly, are you done settling for birth prep that makes you choose between trusting your body….and trusting your God? If that sounds like you, I am so beyond happy you are here! This podcast will help you prepare for the God-centered natural birth you have been dreaming of through education, tips and positive birth stories. Hey, I'm Eve- a labor nurse, birth doula, unmedicated birth mom x2, and most importantly a passionate Jesus-loving Catholic! When I was pregnant for the first time, I was REALLY hoping for a peaceful, faith-filled, unmedicated birth. But despite already having experience as a nurse in the field, all I felt I knew was how to be a 'good patient.' And all the birth education I found was either fluffy and generic or spiritualized in all the wrong ways. So I pieced things together by myself, and by God's grace I had an incredible birth. But that experience lit a fire under my butt and left me convinced that it shouldn't be so dang hard to prepare for a birth that is both natural, and faith-filled. So I went on a mission to piece together YEARS of experience, education, and research so that you don't have to. Let me make it super easy for you to prepare for the birth of your dreams WITH your Catholic faith at the center. On this podcast you'll learn how to: ✅ Understand the brain's powerful role in labor and birth ✅ Overcome fear and cultivate confidence through truth and preparation ✅ Navigate interventions and the medical system wisely and protect the birth you desire ✅ Use labor positions, movement, and mindset to work with your body ✅ Recover and thrive postpartum through nourishment and rest ✅ Embrace motherhood through an intentional, natural, and authentically Catholic perspective If you are ready to… Feel EQUIPPED to knock your birth out of the park, EMPOWERED in your ability to make confident, informed decisions, and EXCITED for the Spirit-led, fear-free birth you've been dreaming of… Then make yourself a coffee (or a red-raspberry leaf tea) and cozy up. Let's jump in! *Disclaimer: this podcast is for educational purposes only and is not personal medical advice. more

I am Joslyn the host of the Positivity in Pregnancy and Motherhood Podcast. I am a thought enthusiast, Latter-day Saint Christian, wife, and homeschooling mom of five. After my first pregnancy turned into an emergency C-section at 31 weeks, I was terrified to have more children. Not only was I scared, but I also disliked a lot of the changes that pregnancy brings. As a young girl I had dreams of having a larger family and being a mom. That is all I desired. But pregnancy was HARD. It knocked me completely off of my feet and I began to dread it. I even HIGHLY considered NOT having more children because the pregnancies were SO difficult. But that didn't feel right. I knew God wanted me to have more children. Around this time I began learning about thoughts and the power of thoughts and positive thinking. I decided I was going to try changing my thoughts surrounding pregnancy from loathing dislike to more positive thoughts. It was an intentional process but it REALLY helped! IMMENSELY! I have now had five children and one miscarriage but I found mindset shifts that changes how I looked at pregnancy and it changed my pregnancies for the better. God kept nudging me that these things needed to be shared with other women who desired to have more children but pregnancies were hard! Through Him, I created a simple course called The Positive Pregnancy Program that can help lift a negative mentality with pregnancy specific mindset shifts that WORK! I feel the passion and desire to share what I found so that you can also find the positive thoughts to help you through difficult and hard pregnancies. After having my first child, I had a VERY difficult time being a stay-at-home-mom (SAHM). This was very hard and discouraging. Being a mom, and specifically a stay-at-home-mom had been my life goal/ dream/ aspiration. I was drowning in negative thoughts that destroyed my ability to enjoy my role as a SAHM and felt hopelessly discouraged in my good goals. Why were these good goals of mine SO HARD!? 7 years later, after many listening to many inspired podcasts, books and help from mentors, I have overcome SO many limiting beliefs holding me back from reaching my goals. Here are just a few milestones I have reached: I have lost 45 pounds 2x. I have found thought tools to make VERY difficult pregnancies better. I have found DEEP joy in being a stay at home mom. I have SINCERELY enjoyed homeschooling my kids without feeling resentful or jealous. And in this journey I. Found. Me. I found Joslyn. ALL of this progress in my personal improvement in pregnancy and motherhood began with a THOUGHT and re-directing and training my thoughts. If you are ready change your thoughts, and make headway in your divine motherly goals through in pregnancy and motherhood through small and simple mindset shifts, I can help YOU! I provide easy thought tools, do-able ideas you can implement immediately, and thinking that can revolutionize you as a Daughter of God raising and growing His children! It is a powerful journey!
