Holy Wild Birth

The Aligned Birth Team


Listen Later

Arguably, one of the most important decisions you'll make about your birth is not WHERE or HOW you give birth but WHOM will be there with you. For an expectant mother, the birth team MATTERS and we have some things to offer up for consideration as you're selecting your attendants. 

The lesser-known other side of the coin is how important it is for a birth attendant to carefully select which mamas/families she will serve. If that sounds iffy to you, this episode is a must listen for you, too!

We cover:

  • The role of time and prayer before saying yes to one another
  • Pre-screening processes 
  • Having an aligned philosophy of birth
  • Knowing yourself and your biases (birth attendant) or needs (birthing mama)
  • The intangible things people carry into birth spaces
  • ...and more!
