“I Will Walk in the Creek Again” with Sister MorningStar

“I Will Walk in the Creek Again” with Sister MorningStar

Author: Emilee Saldaya May 30, 2025 Duration: 2:07:50

To close this season, I wanted to bring you a guest whose presence and legacy transcend words, so I invited back the legendary elder midwife, @sistermorningstar.


In this powerful and intimate conversation, Sister MorningStar shares the stories of her three births, her lifelong devotion to traditional midwifery, and the extraordinary account of being put on trial for standing by a mother through a stillbirth at home. This episode is a testament to integrity, to ancestral memory, and to the unshakable fire it takes to stand for women in a culture that does not.


✨ That’s a wrap on Season Eight. Deep gratitude to every woman who has shared her story on this podcast, and to all of you who continue to witness and walk this path with us.

Emilee Saldaya hosts Free Birth Society, a podcast that delves into the profound and personal choice of freebirth. This is not a discussion about home birth with professional support, but an intimate exploration of childbirth that unfolds without midwives, doulas, or medical intervention, guided solely by the birthing person and their family. Through conversations with wild women from around the globe, each episode presents a raw and unfiltered narrative, focusing on the lived experiences, the emotional landscapes, and the deep, often unspoken trust in the body's innate wisdom. These stories are honest, sometimes gripping, and frequently transformative, challenging mainstream perceptions of safety and authority. The dialogue within this podcast serves as both education and a form of self-improvement, examining the reclaiming of autonomy and the reconnection to ancestral knowledge. Listeners will hear not just the mechanics of unassisted birth, but the philosophical and personal journeys that lead individuals to this path. Emilee, as founder and guide, facilitates these discussions with a clear, grounded presence, allowing the complexity and beauty of each story to resonate. This podcast is for those curious about the edges of conventional maternity care, seeking to understand a paradigm where birth is treated as a private, powerful, and physiological event rather than a medical procedure. The Free Birth Society podcast creates a space for these rarely heard voices, offering a tapestry of experiences that are, above all, true to themselves.
