What does Forrest Frank, Chappell Roan and a rude stare at Warby Parker have in common? They all made me reflect on how our culture views children—and how wildly different that is from how God sees them. In this episode, I’m unpacking the quiet grief of feeling like kids are “too much” for public spaces and the holy reminder that every child is a gift, not an inconvenience.

If you’ve ever second-guessed growing your family, this is the encouragement your heart needs.

What if your next birth could heal the trauma of your last? After a difficult first experience, I was determined to write a different story—one filled with trust, faith, and true support. From waiting 41 weeks and 5 days for labor to the powerful moment I met my sweet Baby P, this homebirth was everything I prayed for. It was raw, redemptive, and a reminder that our bodies were beautifully designed for this.

The Push Lab dives into evidence-based strategies to help you push effectively, protect your pelvic floor, and minimize birth trauma—so you can walk away from birth feeling strong, not blindsided.

In this episode, I introduce my husband, Dr. James (but you can call him Jimmy!), a physical therapist like myself. Together, we dive into the birth story of our firstborn, Noah—a hospital birth that did not go as planned.

From being told my body was failing me before labor even started to a traumatic induction, unnecessary interventions, and feeling like an inconvenience during pushing, this experience shook me to my core. But in a surprising twist, my labor and delivery nurses ended up taking notes on how I pushed—planting the first seed for what would later become The Push Lab.

If you’re preparing for birth, you need to hear this. Let’s talk about what went right, what went wrong, and the biggest takeaways that could change how you approach your own birth experience.
