00:00

01:07:09

In this episode I have the pleasure of introducing you to Casey, a wife and mom of two girls, as she shares her raw and compelling birth stories. From an unexpectedly challenging first birth with pre-eclampsia leading to a C-section, to a triumphant second birth at home, Casey sheds light on the highs and lows of her journey.

She highlights how childbirth education, physical and mental preparation, and a supportive birth team were key components to achieving her VBAC. Her story is sure to inspire and I can't wait for you to listen!
