  • All moms should listen-so much truth and blessing in each episode!

    This podcast has changed my life and birth! Aly is a great communicator and really shares the truth on how to prepare for birth the way all woman should! She balances the show well with birth stories, information and interviews on topics such as breech, birth trauma, and birth control. I can’t recommend her podcast and recourses enough, wish I had found her sooner but thankfully just in time to have my own peaceful home birth!

  • Great listen <3

    I have been really enjoying this podcast! I follow many people who advocate for home birth but having a Christian focus makes it all the better! Amazing work. My only complaint is that sometimes there are background noises in the episodes- it’s a small thing but it can be distracting at times.
