Softening into Self: Amy's Freebirth Transformation

Softening into Self:  Amy's Freebirth Transformation Watch this episode HERE This week on the show I have the radiant Amy, who is an RBK grad, a Matriarch Rising contributor, and now, a freebirther!  Amy tells us how she went from a bible thumping young bride to plant medicine hippy, meeting her new man and opening up to motherhood. Amy weaves her three birth stories around the deep learnings of how to accept herself, love herself and really know herself, all coalescing in a full on transformation.  Here’s what you’ll hear:  How Amy realized her first husband was not going to be the father of her children and how this woke her up to her true desires of motherhood How meeting her real life partner felt so in alignment that they conceived their first baby super fast The horrific and totally common abuse Amy experienced from her medwives and the trauma she disassociated from in order to cope How she even played with the idea of becoming a midwife but something always felt off How everything clicked when she found the freebirth society podcast and realized that she could make a different choice if she were to get pregnant again How it took a friend to validate her rage and anger about how her first two births went for her healing to truly start How her most recent pregnancy was a fully conscious conception and was the full circle healing she needed to accept and forgive herself    The Midwife Within: Our 5-Day Intensive Retreat Led by Elder Midwife Sister MorningStar and Emilee Saldaya.

Om Podcasten

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!
