Free Birth Society
In this deeply honest conversation, Danielle shares the full arc of her journey into motherhood, from a medically managed first birth that left her feeling unprepared and disoriented, to a transformative freebirth experience that changed everything.
She opens up about navigating a C-section, postpartum, medicalized motherhood, working in the OR, and the emotional process of undoing old beliefs while preparing for a VBAC and eventually choosing wild pregnancy and freebirth. What unfolds is a powerful story of self-responsibility, healing, and reclaiming trust in the body.
Danielle reflects on the support that helped her shift her perspective, the intensity of labor, the beauty of meeting her baby at home, and the complex postpartum emotions that followed.
This episode is a moving reminder that growth is not linear, birth is not one-size-fits-all, and every woman’s experience deserves space, honesty, and reverence.
