When the Lights Come On: Karlin's Journey into Sovereignty

This week we have my friend Karlin on the show, sharing her journey into sovereignty. Karlin’s first experience of pregnancy ended in an abortion in the medical system, which came with it many lessons for her to digest.  When her second pregnancy ended in a first trimester early birth, she turned to her partner, the land, and the wisdom of her own body to find her way forward.  Her third pregnancy resulted in her sweet daughter being free birthed, supported by her husband and well.…yours truly, on the phone.  Karlin speaks honestly about how much resistance she had to birth itself, feeling the pain, and how much stronger she has become on the other side.  JOIN THE WAITLIST FOR THE BLOOD MYSTERIES SCHOOL: https://www.freebirthsocietycourses.com/bloodmysteries GET YOUR TICKETS TO THIS YEAR'S MATRIARCH RISING FESTIVAL: https://www.matriarchrisingfestival.com/ GET THE COMPLETE GUIDE TO FREEBIRTH: https://www.freebirthsocietycourses.com/cgtf  JOIN THE FREE BIRTH SOCIETY PRIVATE MEMBERSHIP: https://www.freebirthsocietycourses.com/membership  JOIN THE WAITLIST FOR THE NEXT ROUND OF THE RADICAL BIRTH KEEPER SCHOOL: https://www.freebirthsocietycourses.com/radicalbirthkeeper  VIEW ALL THE  FREE BIRTH SOCIETY COURSES: https://www.freebirthsocietycourses.com JOIN THE FREE BIRTH SOCIETY NEWSLETTER: https://www.freebirthsocietycourses.com/opt-in-pregnancy-affirmations-gift  FOLLOW FREE BIRTH SOCIETY ON INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/freebirthsociety/  SUPPORT THE PODCAST: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=2YJBSCNYXT52Y   SUBMIT YOUR FREEBIRTH STORY!

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!
