Today we chat with Kelli who is a midwife, mum, wife and beautiful human.

Kelli has recently released her memoir and professional journey of becoming a midwife.  She discusses the good, the bad and the heartbreaking with honesty and a rawness that brings tears to your eyes.

Kelli took the time to chat with me on the podcast about her book, her life as a professional midwife and the stories of the beautiful families she assisted as a midwife. 

We discuss issues that home birthing midwives face from insurance, lack of support, hospital policies, moral injury and PTSD. 

Kelli’s book is available through the link below. It is a fabulous read!
