In this episode we chat with Lindsey Drury: photographer, activist and mama extraordinaire who is very involved in her community in Chattanooga, TN (check the links in our show notes for more details).

When I was connected with Lindsey through a mutual friend, I was so excited to talk to her. Mainly because Lindsey live-streamed her third and most recent home birth of her son Staxon on YouTube. I mean...what?!?! How incredibly awesome.

Lindsey shares with us her journey into birth work and her passion for all things that empower and educate. We also get into her own process of choosing home birth for herself and for her family.

And then of course, we hear all about the decision to livestream her home birth, responses and reactions to it and where she’s going from here with her desire to create a new narrative around birth and how we view it.

Here’s what we cover in this episode:

Hear how this mom’s live-streamed home birth reached over 60,000 views

Hear the full story behind the viral birth video and the birth photography that captured it all

Learn how Hypnobabies and self-hypnosis helped her stay calm and confident during labor

Discover what it’s like to have a family-centered birth with your kids present

From a misdiagnosed miscarriage to a powerful home birth — how she reclaimed her story

What it’s really like to share your birth publicly — the support, the trolls, and the transformation
