  • The Birth Story of Birth Order

    Heidi’s podcast with Dr. Robert V.V.Hurst the author of “Life’s Fingerprint” was fascinating! I learned so much about who I really am by finally understanding my true birth order! Heidi asked all of the questions that I had wanted to ask! She is an excellent host! He would be a great monthly guest to have with a question and answer program! Thanks Heidi ♥️

  • Wonderful podcast and host!

    I listened to Heidi’s podcast before the birth of my son and found myself feeling excited, emotional, and empowered. After his birth, I couldn’t listen for several months because I’d experienced a traumatic birth. Eventually, I started searching for birth stories like mine and could not find many. I submitted an inquiry to share my story and Heidi contacted me right away. I felt so seen in that moment. It was difficult to share my story, but she made me feel safe and helped me realize the birth ... more

  • THE Best!

    I listened to Heidi’s podcast leading up to my 5th baby and COMPLETELY credit my amazing birth experience to this podcast, her stories, her advice etc. As a mama who had already been through this several times I STILL learned so, so much about labor, delivery, pregnancy, and beyond. I felt so strong and empowered with my last birth, was able to go into labor on my own (I’d always been induced previously), and had a beautiful, un medicated birth which would not have been possible without you and ... more

  • Love Love Love

    I’m due with my third baby in a few weeks and have listened to Heidi’s podcast leading up to all three births. I love her sensitivity to the people around her and the passion she has for her career. My first two were textbook pregnancies and births, but was surprised this time around with a diagnoses of cholestasis… listening to the stories women share about the somewhat unwelcome challenges they’ve experienced is helping me cope and prepare for an induction at 36 weeks that I desperately wish I... more
