320: My Birth Story Q&A: 15 Honest Answers About My Home Birth and VBAC

This week on the podcast, I’m wrapping up my birth story series with something really fun - a Q&A episode! After sharing Sofia’s birth story and the journey leading up to it, I wanted to take some time to answer the most common questions you all sent me about birth, mindset, and preparation. In this episode, I’m chatting through everything from what surprised me the most to the mental and emotional work that went into preparing for this season. I also open up about some behind-the-scenes parts of the experience that I haven’t shared yet and what I learned along the way. If you’ve ever been curious about home birth or considering a VBAC, this episode is a real, honest look at both. I share what I loved most about being at home (like the peaceful atmosphere, the lack of interventions, and how supported I felt) as well as the mindset shifts that helped me feel confident and calm despite being scared. Whether you’re planning a home birth, hospital birth, or just love hearing real birth stories, my hope with episodes like these is always to encourage you and help you see what’s possible when you’re informed, supported, and trust your body.
