Caitlin is an aspiring doula and mother of 2 wildlings living in the Pacific Northwest. Through her two vastly different birth stories, she learned about the limitations of regulated midwifery, to trust her intuition above all else, and that doctors don’t always know what’s best. Her birth stories offer an important lesson on the value of autonomy, informed choice, and not taking ‘no’ for an answer.Birth Warrior Podcast
The Birth Warrior Podcast, brought to you by the Indie Birth Association, moves beyond mainstream narratives to explore the raw, powerful, and deeply personal landscape of autonomous birth. This isn't a how-to guide, but a collection of voices often left out of the conversation. Each episode features firsthand stories from individuals who have navigated pregnancy and childbirth on their own terms, reclaiming intuition and authority in the process. You'll hear candid reflections on the physical, emotional, and spiritual dimensions of this journey, discussions that intersect with holistic health, alternative family structures, and conscious parenting. The podcast delves into the mental and physical fortitude required, connecting the dots between personal autonomy, fitness, and overall family wellness. By centering these authentic narratives, the Birth Warrior Podcast creates a vital space for anyone questioning conventional paradigms, offering not just stories but a sense of community and validation for those exploring paths less traveled in the realm of birth and motherhood.
