Nicole is also a major foodie and lover of coffee shops. She is currently on maternity leave and enjoying every moment of this special time.She went into labor on her estimated due date which only 4-5% of women do, and gave birth at home in her bedroom with two highly trusted midwives, her doula, and her partner.Her partner caught the baby and it was the most beautiful and empowering experience of Nicole's life.She started out with a hospital based care team but switched to home birth with midwives at the start of her 3rd trimester. Sharing again how it is never to late to change your care provider!Her intuition guided her to her midwives and listening to this podcast was so inspiring + helped her grow her confidence in her decision. I hope it is helping you too, and that Nicole's story sparks even more trust in your body and birth!Curious about Nicole?

Birthing at Home with Low Platelets and Uncertified Midwives in LA
Today on The Natural Birth Podcast we have Kahtia
Kathia is a mama of two from Los Angeles USA.
And on this day I think of her and the many people and animals affected by the fires raging in this region.
I pray for the safety of everyone. And even though it is a tragedy. Every tragedy is an opportunity to come together as a community, as humanity. There is an opportunity for love and humanity to rise stronger than ever wherever suffering and tragedy happens.
My contribution today is to hold space for Kathia to share her empowering and positive birth stories with us.
For us both to inspire you through story telling. The oldest medicine thought the ages.
Let her story be a balm to your heart if you are suffering or feel the suffering of others in our world.
Here’s the intro to Kathia’s stories.
Kathia is an aspiring music artist based in the vibrant heart of Los Angeles. With a passion for creating, she aims to inspire a positive shift in the music scene and promote healing through her unique voice frequency and personal journey.
As a devoted mother of two, she draws on her own experiences to connect deeply with others. Having transitioned from a hospital birth to the intimate comfort of her family living room, Kahtia understands the power of trust and intuition, especially during such transformative moments.
Through her music and story, she hopes to empower women worldwide to listen to their inner voices and embrace their intuition, allowing it to guide them through the remarkable journey of motherhood and beyond.
