The Natural Birth Podcast

Today on The Natural Birth Podcast we have Natali
Natali is a mama of two from South Africa who birthed both her babies in the UK.

She is a holistic vocal coach and the founder of the Vocal Liberation Method, dedicated to helping individuals awaken their connection to their voices. She nurtures authentic expression and grounded confidence, empowering people to step into their power and express themselves in a way that aligns deeply with their true selves, a connection she believes is essential in both life and birth.

After experiencing a traumatic C-section during the COVID years with her first child, Natali embarked on a profound journey of healing and empowerment.

Her second birth, a home VBAC freebirth with her daughter Noa, transformed her experience from feeling silenced to embracing her voice, allowing her to feel soft, flowing, and free. This journey reaffirmed her belief that birth is a sacred and transformative rite of passage for every mother.
Natali emphasizes that the most meaningful preparation for birth involves sharpening your intuition, surrounding yourself with unwavering support & learning to recognize and use your voice to advocate for yourself
This can mean taking up space, speaking uncomfortable truths, or trusting the primal sounds your body wants to express.

Today on The Natural Birth Podcast we have Kiata
Kiata is a mama of 1 and currently 30 weeks pregnant from Tasmania Australia.

She’s a social worker who has worked with children and families for many years. Once she became a mother she found her passion for supporting families in parenting and she is now in the process of becoming an aware parenting instructor.

For Kiata, trusting birth began long before labour. She grew up knowing home birth as normal as her own mother birthed her and her sister at home. So when it was her turn, it felt like returning to something familiar. Something ancestral.
She laboured for 12 hours in water, at home, surrounded by the people she trusted most, her partner, her mother, her sister, and her midwives. That circle of trust held her steady. It allowed her to soften. To open and to surrender to the intensity of birth through fears and doubts.|

She birthed her daughter at home in the birth pool surrounded by love and joy and after her baby was born her father also joined and they all soaked in the blissful birth bubble until the early hours of the morning, until her and her partner were tucked into bed with their daughter.

The positive birth stories she listened to before her own birth strengthened her belief in herself. They helped her prepare. They helped her trust. And now she shares her story in the hope that it might do the same for someone else.

Today on The Natural Birth Podcast we have Dyshni.

Dyshni is a social worker, holistic therapist, and girl mom.

Her work is rooted in helping women, especially daughters of immigrants, heal cycles of survival and reconnect with their bodies, intuition, and sense of safety. Becoming a mother deepened that work for her, and her natural birth experiences became a powerful reminder of what’s possible when we feel informed, supported, and connected to ourselves.

Today she shares about her first birth center birth and then hospital birth.

Both were positive, magical, and beautiful experiences and her hope is to inspire as many women as possible that you can love your birth story!

Today on The Natural Birth Podcast we have Liz. Liz is a mama of 3 from the US

She is a sonographer who started out with the standard american medicalized hospital birth story with pitocin, broken waters, epidural, and finally a vacuum birth that really affected her pelvic floor.

For her second, she knew she wanted something different. She educated herself about natural birth and found the natural birth podcast. At this point, she still didn’t feel confident enough to not birth in the hospital, but was determined to have a natural birth.

And even though she was only at the hospital 2 hours before her baby was born, she still had her waters broken with coached pushing guided by the doctor without any reason, which was enough to change the description of her birth from blissful (which she felt at home) to not how she wanted her birth to go.

By her third baby, she was ready to fully commit to a birth with privately practicing midwives in a birth center. And THIS was how birth was meant to be according to Liz.
