What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Love that there is another channel for women to share their birth stories in! That being said, I personally want to hear more of the guests story and less summarization from the host. I found myself wanting to stay on track with the story and hear less interruptions. It made the stories more difficult to follow.

Ahishsgahwksnsuaban · Sep 2026

Tess’ birth stories were so uplifting and empowering. I loved that it was a positive induction and unmediated birth. Also love that she normalizes the tough times, asking your partner for more help, and knowing this season won’t last.

Michwojo · Feb 2026

I love this podcast so much. I have listened to ALL of these stories leading up to my birth. I have gained more confidence, and excitement for a natural birth! I just wish wish wish there were more recent episodes!! It’s the best podcast!

sadie.philip · Jan 2025

I enjoyed this podcast and benefitted from hearing others birth stories as a FTM due in December. My only piece of feedback is that the host’s active listening “hmm”s in the background were extremely distracting.
