Heather, a pediatric PA and mom of three, shares her journey from hospital birth to home birth, postpartum healing, and nutrition for motherhood.

Sydney’s story is a beautiful reminder that birth doesn’t have to go perfectly to be powerful. From navigating early signs of preeclampsia to embracing a gentle induction and facing shoulder dystocia during labor, she stayed grounded in her desire for an unmedicated birth

In this episode of the Bare Birth Podcast, I chat with Kate Hill, a mother of three whose journey into unmedicated birth started with her husband’s curiosity and grew into a passion for holistic health. She shares her experiences with three natural births, the impact of chiropractic care on pregnancy and birth, and why she’s so passionate about educating women on postpartum depletion.

Birth has a way of shaping us in profound ways. For Britta Parker, her first birth during the height of the pandemic left her feeling uncertain, overwhelmed, and in need of healing. But her story didn’t end there — it became the beginning of something beautiful

Birth has a way of unfolding in ways we never quite expect. We plan, we prepare, we trust—but what happens when labor stretches on longer than imagined? When home feels right, but a hospital transfer becomes the next best step? Today, we sit down with Meagan Johnson, a home birth doula and birth photographer, as she shares her long labor, peaceful transfer, and the power of surrendering to the birth journey—wherever it may lead.

Birth is never a one-size-fits-all experience. Each journey brings new lessons, challenges, and moments of transformation. But what happens when birth doesn’t go as planned? When complications arise, or past experiences shape our fears and hopes for the next? 

Today, we sit down with Joy Rhodes - mom of three, photographer, and pastor's wife, as she shares her journey through three births—navigating a natural hospital birth, a medically complex pregnancy and scheduled C-section, and achieving a powerful VBAC with her third—while reflecting on the resilience, support, and joy that carried her through. 

Birth is raw, intense, and often full of the unexpected. We prepare as much as we can—mentally, physically, and spiritually—but what happens when labor unfolds faster than we imagined? When unexpected protocols shift our plans? When birth demands more surrender than control?

Today, we sit down with Bree Figgins as she shares her powerful journey through home birth, unexpected challenges, and the deep emotional and physical work of postpartum recovery.

Birth is one of the most intense and transformative experiences a woman can go through. We spend months preparing—learning, planning, and surrounding ourselves with the right support. But what happens when labor is over and the real work of motherhood begins? How do we navigate the unexpected challenges of postpartum—the sleepless nights, the struggles with breastfeeding, the shifts in our relationships? Today, we sit down with Anna Taggart-Minnahan as she shares her journey to an unmedicated birth, the power of preparation, and the realities of postpartum recovery.

Brewing and enjoying NORA tea is one of my favorite rhythms during pregnancy and postpartum. If you're looking for a nutrient-packed herbal tea to support your pregnancy, postpartum recovery, or overall well-being, NORA tea is a fantastic choice.

Birth is raw, powerful, and deeply transformative. We spend months preparing for the moment we meet our baby, carefully choosing where and with whom we’ll give birth. But how do we know we’re truly aligned with our birth team? What happens when we trust our bodies but need others to trust them, too?

Today, we sit down with Bree Varela as she shares her journey from hospital to home birth, the importance of feeling supported, and the deep work of preparing not just for birth—but for everything that comes after

Birth is unpredictable, wild, and full of ups and downs. As mothers taking empowered responsibility for our births, we do everything we can to prepare for that monumental moment.

In this episode of the Bare Birth Podcast, we sit down with Tiffany—a dietitian, mother of two, and advocate for maternal health—to explore her deeply personal journey through pregnancy, loss, birth, and postpartum recovery.

Mikayla shares her passion for maternal health, emphasizing its direct impact on our family’s well-being. She talks about the importance of women prioritizing their health, not just for themselves but for the future of their families. She encourages mothers to educate themselves, listen to their bodies, and seek supportive care providers who align with their birth goals.

Welcome to the very first episode of the Bare Birth Podcast! I’m your host, Bailey Jack, and I am so excited to finally bring this vision to life. This podcast is all about sharing positive natural birth stories, but before we dive into other moms’ incredible journeys, I wanted to start with my own—because trust me, I wasn’t always the home birth-loving, birth-obsessed person I am today!
