Ep 347: Birth is magnetic

Author: Katelyn Fusco September 17, 2026 Duration: 13:41
I want to tell you about two births.   Same woman. Same husband. Same house, more or less. And afterward, two completely different marriages.   Not because one birth was easy and one was hard. That isn't what made the difference. I've thought about this for years and I want to tell you what I think it actually was.   Links Free workshop, September 21st — Why You've Read Everything and Still Don't Feel Ready: https://www.myhappyhomebirth.com/next Whole Mother Homebirth: https://www.myhappyhomebirth.com/wholemotherhomebirth (use code PODCAST for 10% off) YouTube: https://youtu.be/y3OxNeiA1D0?si=ZWV-Y8BBXboZembc Sponsor — Samaritan Ministries: https://samaritanministries.org/happyhomebirth

Hosted by Katelyn Fusco, Happy Homebirth creates a genuine space for conversations that go far beyond the simple how-to of having a baby at home. This podcast centers on the real, unfiltered narratives of people who have experienced natural childbirth, primarily in their own homes. You’ll hear directly from mothers as they recount the intensity, joy, and transformative power of their journeys, alongside the perspectives of midwives and other care providers who support them. While the tone is often uplifting and engaging, these discussions don’t shy away from the raw and challenging moments, offering a fully rounded picture of what homebirth can entail. It’s about building a supportive community through shared stories, where education and encouragement are woven into every episode. Tuning in means connecting with a resource that honors the entire spectrum of motherhood, from pregnancy and birth to parenting and personal health, all while exploring the intersections of family life and personal well-being. For anyone curious, planning, or simply seeking honest dialogue about this profound life experience, this podcast serves as a valuable and comforting companion.
