Today’s episode is with Aspen, a first-time mom, who had a beautiful, five-hour birth at a birth center — but her story starts long before labor began. She grew up hearing that birth was terrible — her mom even said she wished for death during hers. But instead of repeating that narrative, this mama decided to renew her mind and approach birth differently.

We talk about the delicate balance between having faith-filled expectations without setting yourself up for disappointment, and how too much information can actually lead to overthinking. You’ll hear what she actually did to prepare for a peaceful, straightforward first birth — and how her mindset made all the difference.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by all the birth information out there and just want to know what’s truly important — you’re going to love this episode.
