In this episode of Positive Birth Corner, MaryNissi sits down with Amanda to share her powerful journey of bringing her daughter, Aria, into the world. From navigating fears around induction and low fluid levels to finding strength through affirmations, prayer, and the support of her doula, Amanda’s story is a reminder that birth can be both unpredictable and beautiful.

Amanda opens up about her pregnancy journey, the impact of a previous miscarriage, how she and her husband prepared mentally and physically, and the pivotal role her mom, husband, doula, and even her dogs, played in her experience. You’ll hear how she balanced planning with “going with the flow,” her decision around the epidural, and the surprising moment a leaking bathtub ceiling pushed her toward the hospital!

If you’ve ever wondered what it looks like to combine faith, flexibility, and intentional preparation in birth, this conversation is for you.

✨ You’ll hear about:

• Amanda’s experience navigating pressure for induction and trusting her instincts
• The mental and emotional preparation she used (affirmations, prayer, mindset)
• How movement, walks, and even her dogs became part of labor prep
• Balancing birth preferences with the reality of the moment
• The importance of support systems both personal and professional in shaping a positive birth
