Author: HeHe Stewart November 14, 2025 Duration: 1:18:58
In this episode of The Birth Lounge Podcast, HeHe sits down with Jessica, a mama of five — all born breech — to unpack what it’s really like to birth outside the box (literally!). From her first head-down birth to her series of empowering breech births, Jessica shares her story of confidence, trust, and self-advocacy. Together, they explore how breech birth can be safe, positive, and deeply powerful when you’re supported by the right team. You’ll hear how Jessica learned to trust her body, release fear, and even fire providers who didn’t align with her vision. This conversation is filled with real stories, fresh perspective, and a big dose of encouragement for anyone who wants to birth boldly and on their own terms.   Guest Bio: Jessica Gray is a first responder (NREMT), social media community organizer, wife, mom of 6 and breech birth advocate. 5 of Jessica's children have been born breech naturally in two different countries.  Jessica created an online community that has proved invaluable to women globally who have found out their babies are presenting breech. Recognized as a go-to in social media for breech insight and resources, her Instagram account @breechbirth is daily interacting with women who are desperate for resources and encouragement. Jessica also shares her advocacy for breech birth through speaking engagements and appearances on popular birth podcasts.  Currently she is working on writing a guide to breech birth for moms.  She resides in the Southern United States with her family.
