Home Birth Story: From an Unexpected Solo Birth to a Supported Water Birth | Birth Story Series Ep 2
In the second episode of my Home Birth Series, I sit down with Emily to hear her powerful and inspiring home birth stories.
Emily shares her unexpected solo birth experience, as well as her second, deeply supported water birth, and what each of these experiences taught her about trust, preparation, and surrender.
We also explore her journey toward revillaging—creating a strong, supportive community around motherhood and family life. Emily speaks candidly about what it looks like to step away from doing it all alone and instead lean into connection and support.
She also opens up about her transition from one child to two, including how she intentionally prepared her firstborn to be part of the home birth experience. This conversation is filled with insight, encouragement, and practical inspiration for growing families.
Whether you’re considering home birth, expanding your family, or craving deeper community in motherhood, this episode is for you.
