November 10, 2025 116: Rediscovering Your Belief During Grief (with Madison Snyder) [Miscarriage, Gestational Diabetes, Induction]
When you find out you’re pregnant and you’ve never had more joy, faith, or closeness with God in your entire life, you’re on the mountain top! Then the enemy takes that baby away from you, and everything comes crashing down-how can you recover from such a tragedy? When Madison and Trevor become pregnant for the second time, they were understandably anxious and unable to celebrate in the way that they did with their first, never knowing if this baby was going to go to Heaven too soon too. Questioning her every decision, Madison navigated every step of this pregnancy from the diagnosis of gestational diabetes to the hard push for early induction, and every intervention that she encountered on the day of her baby’s birth. What would they do differently with their next labor? What decisions would they make in pregnancy and childbirth for a different experience? Would her faith ever fully be restored to where it was before? These were questions she was asking herself when her baby was less than an hour old! Listen to every detail of Madison’s gripping story as she shares her heart and mind surrounding her first childbirth experience today, and what she learned along the way.

October 27, 2025 114: Birth Redemption Comes In Many Shapes & Sizes - Pt. 2 (with Matthew and Monika Taylor) [Precipitous Birth, Two Under Two, Water Birth]
Amazingly, Matthew and Monika went on to have their second child relatively quickly after she was finally healed from her first, and again had another smooth pregnancy. But all of her plans would come crashing down as her due date approached, and it seemed as if all of her hopes and dreams were slipping out of her hands. Her biggest fear was tearing again…and for good reason! Tune in today to find out what happens and how birth number two (and postpartum number two) ultimately unfolded!

October 20, 2025 113: When Giving Birth Is the Easy Part - Pt. 1 (with Matthew and Monika Taylor) [First Time Mom, Fast Labor, Postpartum Complications]
When you have a relatively smooth pregnancy, and a spontaneous, quick, uncomplicated and unmedicated birth at 39 weeks, you seem to have won the pregnancy and childbirth lottery, right? That’s what Matthew and Monika thought as well until she hit postpartum. And it wasn’t postpartum depression that took her out. It was the tear she endured during delivery that was unable to heal. For six months Monika had to return to her doctor every few weeks for more painful procedures and eventually surgery. It was like starting from Day One all over again every time. And that can take a toll on anybody, let alone a freshly-postpartum new mother filled with hormones.

October 13, 2025 112: Pregnancy Isn't Easy, But It's Worth Every Second (with Daniel and Alyssa Mead) [Difficult Pregnancy, Water Birth, First Time Mom]
Sometimes getting pregnant is easier than you expected, but then the pregnancy itself ends up being much more difficult. So learning to trust God and expect the unexpected is the name of the game! Alyssa and Daniel, while experiencing a difficult pregnancy with terrible nausea and vomiting, blood sugar issues, random rashes, the works, were pleasantly surprised when God redeemed the pregnancy through an early, relatively short, unmedicated water birth that they’d been praying for!

October 06, 2025 111: The Beautiful Simplicity of A Planned Free Birth (with Katelyn Morgan) [Home Birth, Water Birth, Wild Pregnancy]
Wild pregnancy...free birth... Are you familiar with those terms? While Katelyn had a home birth for her first, she went one step further and planned a free birth for her second. Unlike some moms, she’s not married to the idea, and it’s not a hill for her to die on, and if at any point she felt the need for assistance, she would have some, but as she said, until God told her otherwise, a free birth it would be. The Lord again taught her a lesson of patience, but this time it was in a totally different way from her first!

September 22, 2025 109: God's Lessons and Blessings Are All Around You - Part 2 (with Balt and Miriam Peña) [Home Birth, Water Birth, Birth Redemption]
For her second birth, Miriam realized the amount of support she truly needed, and that instead of isolating herself, surrounding herself with like minded women was what she needed in order to be able to fully surrender to the Lord and lean on Him through the process of an unmedicated home birth. And what an incredible difference that would make in her postpartum and in her relationship with her husband as well. Tune in to find out exactly how it all went down!

September 15, 2025 108: When Self-Advocacy Is Your Only Option - Part 1 (with Balt and Miriam Peña) [Hyperemesis Gravidarum, Hospital Transfer, First Time Mom]
I’ve heard of many moms who plan an unmediated hospital birth for their first, and then some who even plan a birth center birth for their first, and then the handful of moms who plan a home birth for their first, but it’s rare I find somebody who plans a free birth for their first. While Miriam’s heart started in the right place, as the planned free birth inched closer, so did her pride. And she would be humbled. Her first birth was 49 hours long and not anything like she had planned, and while at one time she would have seen that as a disappointment and remained in a place of bitterness, the Lord has since revealed to her His purpose in it all.
Tune in next week for part 2 of their story!

September 08, 2025 107: The Contrast Between A Medicated Birth & A Natural Birth (with Emma Gowan) [Epidural Gone Wrong, Painless Childbirth, Prayer In Birth]
For your first birth, you end up having an elective induction that goes relatively smoothly with a very strong epidural and no major complications, other than a huge headache that was able to be resolved, albeit in a strange manner. Why then, would you choose to do it differently the next time? For Emma, she was blessed to be able to experience a pain-free natural birth with her second delivery when she chose to go to a different location for her birth. Listen today to hear why she chose to go natural for round two, and why she’d do it ten million more times!
