Summary
To close this season, I wanted to bring you a guest whose presence and legacy transcend words, so I invited back the legendary elder midwife, @sistermorningstar.
In this powerful and intimate conversation, Sister MorningStar shares the stories of her three births, her lifelong devotion to traditional midwifery, and the extraordinary account of being put on trial for standing by a mother through a stillbirth at home. This episode is a testament to integrity, to ancestral memory, and to the unshakable fire it takes to stand for women in a culture that does not.
✨ That’s a wrap on Season Eight. Deep gratitude to every woman who has shared her story on this podcast, and to all of you who continue to witness and walk this path with us.
