0:00.0	Welcome to the 1000 Hours Outside podcast. My name is Jenny Erich. I am the founder of
0:04.8	1000 Hours Outside and I have talked about her time and time and time again. People have even
0:10.6	left comments about it and so she is here here she is in person
0:15.8	to listen to you she's got the wisdom that you want to hear my midwife and
0:21.2	dear friend Beth Barboe welcome.
0:24.0	Thank you so much, Jenny.
0:26.0	I hope that I can measure up to what you've been saying all this time.

1:19.7	good one because I met you and our life really changed but we made the decision to home birth

1:28.3	sections at the hospital they wouldn't allow me to try for a vaginal birth after having two sesarian sections and so I did a Google search and came to you even
1:38.4	though I had been to your store before I hadn't met you and when I think back on those years I remember like I tried to dress to impress I mean I remember I'm like I need to go in
1:48.6	Seeming like I am strong and healthy and ready because our babies were pretty close in age.
