Details

The Free Birth Society Podcast features honest, gripping, inspiring, and transformative freebirth stories hosted by the founder Emilee Saldaya in conversation with wild women worldwide. In the vast tapestry of childbirth experiences, a thread runs undisturbed, unmedicated, and true to its ancestral roots: freebirth. This differs from your usual home birth with doulas or midwives in attendance. Freebirth stands apart, where birthing is solely in the hands of the birthing woman, accompanied only by her intuition, rhythms of nature, witnessed by her family. The Free Birth Podcast invites you to a unique corner of the universe where we dive deep into the raw essence of birth, untamed and unassisted. Pushing against the tides of modern obstetrics and its violent approach, we venture into stories of women who've boldly chosen to claim this primal rite of passage. Here, we're not merely sharing tales; we're challenging the status quo and redefining the very narrative of childbirth. As we unravel discussions on rights in childbirth, dissect varied care models, and amplify the unfiltered voices of freebirthing women from around the planet, our purpose remains clear: to spotlight the distinction and significance of wild birth. This isn't an argument against the myriad ways women choose to birth, but rather an affirmation that freebirth has its revered space in the continuum of birth choices. Join us in celebrating a movement that underscores the powerful message and has changed the lives of thousands: Birth, in its purest form, is not a medical event but a profoundly personal journey. The Free Birth Society Podcast is your compass to navigate and rediscover that journey. *Freebirth = Birthing in the absence of any hired professionals, away from medical institutions or their agents. Also known as family birth, unassisted birth, wild birth. *Sovereign birth = Birthing outside of the medical paradigm, inclusive of births with authentic midwives and doulas. We include many stories on the show where women birthed outside of the medical system with doulas and radical birth keepers. While these births are not freebirths, they are certainly sovereign births!

Live Show in Austin, Texas

Today we are thrilled to be sharing our episode from the FIRST EVER LIVE SHOW from this past November in Austin, Texas. It was so fun to do this IRL and get to sit with my guest on stage, surrounded by so many amazing pod supporters.

This is *not* a story to miss, check it out:

An unwanted induction led Kait to a homebirth with a medical midwife for her second. In her third pregnancy, she felt ready to choose a wild pregnancy and freebirth. At 35 weeks, her birth unexpectedly began. Kait got freaked out by the amount of blood present in her birth and while her husband goes to get them ready to transfer, her daughter was born, weighing 3.5 lbs. While she waited for the placenta…her son was born. The healthy *surprise* twins quickly nursed and everyone stayed home. Kait tells the wild story of moving from surprise of twins to navigating loss of power as a hurricane pummeled Houston, Texas in the first days of her postpartum.
