- Surrendering to Everything: Whitney's Motorhome Freebirth
Whitney joins us today to tell the stories of her two freebirths in the past two years: her first, with her husband and her sister present, and her second, in an RV supported again by her family for the slow emergence of her son. Whitney shares the power of witnessing other women walk through wild pregnancy and freebirth in our private online membership, and reflects on how grateful she is to have created the life she is living.

38 min - A Freebirth in Oman: Chantal's Brave Journey
Today we have Chantal telling us her stories of 3 full-term pregnancies, and 3 pregnancy losses in 5 different countries. She speaks to how she navigated foreign cultures and governmental systems as an expat, & shares her journey from a medicalized, torturous birth, to a birth-center birth, and then a wildly simple freebirth at home. We also discuss the disruption of her postpartum time by having to immediately interface with the system to obtain a birth record.
Chantal’s story is a lighthouse for the pregnant women feeling hopeless and who know there must be another way. Freebirth happens anywhere and everywhere, even in countries where most everyone believes homebirth is illegal.

59 min - Community Birth, Community Postpartum: Arielle's Perfect FBAC (Freebirth After Cesarean)
To kick off the sixth season and the 200TH (!!!) episode of The Free Birth Society Podcast, we have one of my very best friends, Arielle de Martinez! You may remember her from her herbalism episode previously on the podcast, and today she shares her journey from a manufactured emergency c-section with her first daughter to her simple, perfect community-supported freebirth with her second daughter.
Arielle and her family traveled at 40 weeks to be near us to birth, and the ripple effects of her postpartum bliss traveled all throughout our community. It was such a gift.

1 hr 28 min - From Trauma to Triumph: Molly's Freebirth in France
We’re closing out an incredible Season 5 with Molly from France. After an unexpected pregnancy at a young age, Molly describes her traumatic birth with her first daughter as a "a second rape".
She suffered physically, mentally, and emotionally, and promised herself she'd never give birth in a hospital again. With her second pregnancy, she dreamed of a freebirth, and with her third, she brought her dream to fruition-after removing herself from the spiral of medical pathology, and choosing a peaceful pregnancy. She gave her family the biggest gift- and birthed her daughter in full freedom.

54 min - Breech Is a Variation of Normal: Emily's Freebirth
This week, we have Emily, a former Labor & Delivery nurse turned freebirthing-mother! After starting nursing school when she was pregnant with her first daughter, Emily quickly realized that licensure and hospital policies trump all else, and advocating for your patients can only go so far. After her birth with her second son, she removed herself from the medical system altogether, and went on to have a wild pregnancy and a (surprise breech!) freebirth with her third.

This week on the show, we have Maria from Finland. She tells us about her conscious conception journeys, beginning with meeting her husband in ceremony after a spiritual awakening, and then a near-death accident that solidified her journey of following her heart and her gut instincts in wild pregnancy and freebirth.

About Free Birth Society
From the publisher's feed
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!
