    Essential Information
    I love this podcast! It feels so comfortable, like these experts are right in your living room. I love the variety of birth and postpartum professionals on the program. Sarah’s passion to empower Fearless Birth and provide families with a circle of expertise is essential, critical, and invaluable! If you are expecting, a new parent or plan to become pregnant this is a must-listen-to series. - Rickie, Childbirth Educator and Postpartum Doula

    Love her non-judgement!
    I love the variety of guests she has on and how they always discuss all birth options without judgement. I've heard podcasts where it's obvious the host has an agenda. But not with this one! She brings in such great guests! I've learned so much!
  • fjdicnexonwxohw x
    LOVE THIS!!
    I love this podcast so so much! I have yet to have my first baby but have been considering becoming a CNM. These episodes have been both informative and moving. As someone who can’t wait to have a baby, I found myself crying in this most recent episode when mama was able to have her baby the way she had planned. Keep up the good work!!
  • AhlmanW
    Beautiful Resource
    This is such a beautiful resource for new parents and seasoned ones as well. Sarah speaks straight to your heart!
  • uvjjacob
    Every woman needs to listen to this
    I’ve only heard two episodes so far but Sarah and her guests truly speak my language! They cover all topics related to birth in a gentle, respectful, holistic approach. I’ve birthed four times unmedicated and still I learned so much. There was a discussion about giving birth as a rite of passage that really resonated with me. I love hearing the different angles covered, including physiological, emotional, and spiritual, and how they are related to each other in the birth process. Birth stories are always fun to listen to, but this podcast is so much more than that—it’s a discussion that delves much deeper into the experiences surrounding pregnancy and birth for mothers and their partners. Listeners will gain insights to help them consider what their personal needs are concerning their own birth experiences, why previous birth experiences didn’t meet their expectations, and develop a profound respect for the human body’s power and instinct in the most primal of natural occurrences. Can’t recommend highly enough!

  • Jarnelson
    I didn’t know I’ve been waiting for this!
    I love babies. I love birth. I love hearing women talking about their experiences, knowledge, and power. I am sooo excited for this podcast. These topics have been regulated to the private spaces of our world and we need them normalized in public spaces as part of daily conversation.
