A wonderful podcast with a wide range of stories that encourage women with all different types of backgrounds and experiences. If it wasn’t for podcasts like this, it would have been tough to have the courage to have a beautiful and peaceful birth at home. So grateful for Diana and all the women...Read full review »

Love the perspective and range of stories. Diana is great at interviewing, asking relevant questions and clarifying things that would be helpful for the listener. This is how we change things for the better, through women choosing differently, often stepping outside the system, and sharing their...Read full review »

I am a NICU nurse of many years any no way are me and my colleagues evil. A bit of education is warranted here.

Diana holds space so beautifully for each of the guests she has on her show. It’s healing to hear these stories, but also I can tell it’s healing for her guests as well! Love the work that is being done here. So important 🤍

This podcast is excellent, and I would recommend to all women interested in birth to listen to the stories shared on it, as well as to perinatal mental health specialists. These stories are real, vulnerable, non-censored, and hold so much wisdom and raw truth. Diana is a wonderful host as well.

Finding and listening to this podcast has literally been a lifesaver for me. After experiencing my own birth trauma for my first child, I was full on in the throws of PTSD, probably some PPD, and have gerneralized anxiety, and I can truly say my postpartum was one of the darkest times of my life....Read full review »

This is truth is it’s glorious wisdom. Thank you! I have lived this in the reverse. Having unhindered home births, then being naively thrown into the system. Lost, voiceless, disassociated and detached, I was in the end cut open and separated. The healing path is real, raw and beautiful. My...Read full review »

These are beautiful and inspiring stories, not designed to make us fearful of birth, but to empower us to see our birth trauma for what it is, and overcome it if possible.

Hi, Just wanted to thank you for this podcast. I am a Midwife in the UK and have worked in many settings over the last 14 years. This podcast keeps me grounded and ensures I don’t lose sight of my philosophy of birth, keeping the women and their needs at the forefront of mind. We had our first...Read full review »

Anyone who’s voiced their birth trauma, has likely heard, “just be thankful you have a healthy baby” or some similarly dismissive comment. 2.5 years ago, I went through a traumatic cesarean with my son. And I couldn’t work through it, because I’ve been guilt tripped for having the feelings I did...Read full review »

Such a beautiful and inspiring podcast. Diana has so much heart, integrity and power - it is clear this is the work she was meant to do. There truly doesn’t seem to be content on this perspective of the traumatic impact of “normal” birth in the system, and it’s so appreciated that it’s talked...Read full review »

Great listen for encouragement! Highly recommend! Each one really gets to the heart and soul of different birth struggles and yet is so uplifting and empowering.

This is a great listen. I love the most crescent episode that explores midwifery and Doulas. I had Med-wives for my first home birth. It wasn’t awful but it was traumatizing. From 36 weeks to birth at 41+5 talk of transferring care was present in each interaction. Second time around I interviewed...Read full review »

I’m so happy to have a podcast to listen to geared towards birth trauma mamas. My birth trauma is brutal and affecting my life daily into every cell in my organism. I thank you for bringing me a little bit of comfort and healing.

No skating over trauma or reframing abuse here! Diana and Lynnae set a beautifully powerful example of self-responsibility and NAMING things. I am so grateful to know this space exists for women like me who are not content to remain victims. I will avidly look forward to every single episode.
Steph Byers via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/26/19
Diana does a stellar job remaining calm and collected while addressing birth trauma women have and do continue to face. She offers a clear perspective, and compassion for those who have suffered such abuse in the broken birth system.
A. Schaff via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/25/19
