Miracle story ahead! This episode with Carol was fascinating! God truly cares about women and the process of birth. 

We are in a time in history where women are realizing the deep need to trust God over their midwife, the medical system, even their own knowledge and intuition. God wants to be invited into ever detail and moment of your birth!

For the midwives out there listening, may you be encouraged that you answer to a higher power than your license, the State or the medical system. Praise Him that you are a vessel to be used by our Almighty Savior and friend. 

I hope this episode encourages you as you prepare for or attend births. To God be the glory.

"good patient" caused her to stay quiet, go along with the system, and ultimately watch her dreams for birth slip away. But this time? She chose a different path.

Through my program, Haley prepared for an HBAC — a homebirth after cesarean — and not only did she have a beautiful, redemptive homebirth, but she did it with the full understanding and wisdom of both sides of the coin — as a nurse and as a mama standing in her authority.

We also dive into the complicated emotions that can come up when you work inside the medical system, but choose something different for yourself. Her story starts with her waters breaking early — what the hospital often labels as "premature rupture of membranes" — and how that moment could've easily led her down the same old cascade of interventions… but because she was prepared and supported, she stayed home, stayed confident, and brought her baby into the world in the way God designed.

It’s such a powerful conversation, especially if you’re navigating fears after a c-section or feeling tension between your job in healthcare and your personal birth choices.
