As Soul Evolution approaches its 100th episode, Emily remasters and re-releases one of the most loved and powerful conversations from the archives — a raw, embodied exploration of sovereignty, lineage, and physiological birth with Lindsey.

Lindsey shares her two birth stories with unfiltered honesty — her first, a hospital birth that became a “trial run” in reclaiming her voice, and her second, a fully sovereign free birth at home. Together, Emily and Lindsey trace the threads of maternal lineage, healing the mother wound, and the power of intuition as a compass for birth and beyond.

This episode is a deep remembrance of what it means to trust the body, to birth without fear, and to meet the divine feminine within the portal of labor.

• Lindsey’s maternal lineage and how generational trauma shaped her understanding of womanhood

• Healing her relationship with her mother through birth

• The conditioning of hospital birth and the subtle ways it disempowers women

• Saying “no” — and meaning it — as a sacred act of self-trust

• Navigating fear and intuition during pregnancy

• Discovering the concept of free birth through her doula

• The physiology of undisturbed labor and the cascade of hormonal benefits

• Her first birth: standing in her power within the medical system

• Her second birth: the unfolding of a conscious conception and autonomous birth

• The fetal ejection reflex and the ecstatic surrender of physiological birth

• Honoring the placenta and postpartum integration

• The spiritual and practical wisdom of cyclical motherhood

Lindsey — mother of two, herbalist, and advocate for sovereign birth and cyclical living. Her story embodies what it means to return home to the wisdom of the body, the earth, and the lineage of women who came before.

• The power of social media as modern story medicine for women

• Mugwort as a sacred ally for birth and intuition

• The importance of nourishment, rest, and intuitive prenatal care

• The placenta as a sacred organ of life and ceremony

Please rate, review, and share Soul Evolution with a friend or sister who needs this reminder — that birth is not something we endure, but something we are made for.
