Sovereign Doesn’t Have to Mean Alone: An Honest Conversation about Freebirth with Brittany Costello
Can we talk about freebirth rigidity for a minute? Okay, great.
In this heart-centered episode, we welcome Brittany, a freebirth podcast host who…. has chosen not to freebirth her next baby. We get into Brittany’s evolution from OBGYN care to Midwifery to denouncing it all and finally to finding a middle ground of nuance, softness, and truth. Brittany shares her birth story with her son and breaks down which interventions she felt were not called for, but also which ones she now sees as “probably a good idea.”
As you listen, please do so with an open mind and an open heart. This is a conversation full of moments of humility, and definitely left both of us in tears.
