  • The BEST birth podcast

    I love everything about this podcast. Brooke and Lauren offer new perspectives on such important topics that often get overlooked. I love that it’s all from a Christian perspective because that’s really refreshing in the birth world. These ladies have such a deep, holistic outlook and I finally feel like I’m not crazy when I listen to them! Plus, I’ve learned so much that I can’t wait to take into my own birth!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Leah Wilson :: Expect Things To Go Well
Q: What led you to remove certain birth team members and trust the process with God?
She explains firing midwives and a doula whose expectations did not align with her vision of 'expect things to go well,' choosing to rely on faith, her own guidance, and a mentor advisor instead.
Leah Wilson :: Expect Things To Go Well
Q: Did you feel good during this pregnancy and who did prenatal care with you?
She did not receive standard prenatal care after 20 weeks due to ultrasound disagreements; she relied on a mentor midwife advisor and ultimately managed the pregnancy with a focus on primal birth and faith-based decision-making.
Answers from the Hearth: Boundaries in Postpartum
Q: How should I handle family members who want to be involved right after birth but may crowd or overstep boundaries?
Communicate your boundaries clearly and lovingly, specify what you will do (e.g., announcing when visitors can come, end times, tasks you'd like help with) and involve your husband or a trusted intermediary to reinforce the limits. Consider a “postpartum sanctuary” framing and practical tools like a code word to signal when guests should wrap up.
Answers From the Hearth :: Planning a Home Birth When Family is Unsupportive
Q: How do you handle questions from others without getting drawn into conflict?
Respond with clarity and calm, share information selectively, and use boundary-setting strategies to keep conversations focused or diverted, ensuring your space and peace are protected.
Answers From the Hearth :: Planning a Home Birth When Family is Unsupportive
Q: What does planning a home birth look like when family and community are unsupportive?
The host explains starting with a personal why, maintaining confidence in the birth choice, and setting clear boundaries about what information will be shared and with whom, while seeking wise counsel and building a supportive network.
