Summary

We are kicking off Season 4 with an amazing free birth after c-section story. I'm excited to introduce to you, our first guest of Season 4, my amazing friend Jess, from Arizona. She chose a free birth after her first birth resulted in a fear mongering c-section due to breech presentation.

Tired of being pathologized in the system, Jess began to feel the presence of her daughter, and she turned to trust. She had a wild pregnancy, and roared her baby into the world.
