13. The "Free Birth" of Florence - with Madeleine Allgood

Ok - I think it's pretty obvious I can't get enough of hearing & sharing empowering birth stories - but this chat has to be "up there" on my list of empowering birth stories.
.
Madeleine birthed her beautiful baby girl, Florence, at home in an incredibly magic "free birth" of which is where babies are born without medical assistance at home. Her previous 2 births were somewhat traumatic which inspired her to do this pregnancy & birth on her own terms. 
.
This podcast is ultimately a story about the power of women trusting their bodies.
We discussed:

  • how having a free birth actually "works"
  • healing from past traumatic births 
  • leaning into the pain & intensity of childbirth
  • using birth as a transformative portal into another realm
  • Being spiritually connected to your baby in the womb
  • the power in the primal roar during childbirth and eliminating the shame about having a vocal birth 
  • Changing your relationship to pain during childbirth 
  • How to let go of being the “good girl” during your pregnancy and birth
  • The power of storytelling 


PLUS SO MUCH MORE JUICY GOODNESS.

This is just a feel good episode! Enjoy x
