EP15. Living In Sovereignty: From C-section to Free Birth with Theda

In this episode of 'Hear Me Roar,' the host welcomes Theda to share her journey of transitioning from Midwifery abandonment that lead to a c-section - to free birth. Theda opens up about her personal experiences, including the challenges she faced during her first birth at a hospital where a medical error occurred, and the peace she found in her second birth at home.  The discussion touches on the significance of the support systems, postpartum challenges, and the spiritual and social implications of choosing a free birth. Along the way, Theda also shares insights about her work with 'The Freedom People' and offers a special promotion for listeners interested in exploring a more sovereign lifestyle. 00:00 Introduction and Guest Welcome 01:01 Theda's Background and Early Life 01:42 First Pregnancy Journey 06:27 Labor and Delivery Challenges 13:40 NICU Experience and Hospital Struggles 23:00 Postpartum and Recovery 25:49 Second Pregnancy and Birth 35:19 Struggles with Placenta Delivery 38:50 Postpartum Reflections and Support 42:21 Diet Changes and Mental Health 51:28 Breastfeeding Challenges and Family Dynamics 52:22 Philosophical Reflections on Birth and Death 01:02:08 Community and Sovereignty EPISODE LINKS.
