When it comes to deciding between a VBAC or a repeat cesarean, too many mamas are left with surface-level info and a whole lot of fear. And let’s be honest—that’s not good enough when it comes to one of the biggest decisions of your life.
In this episode, we’re cutting through the noise and diving deep into the evidence—so you can walk away feeling clear, confident, and fully informed.
👉 Not pressured.
👉 Not guilted.
👉 Not scared into a decision that doesn’t sit right with you.
We’re breaking down:
✔️ What the latest research actually says about the risks of VBAC vs. repeat cesareans (and why context matters)
✔️ How to understand “risk” in a way that empowers you, not paralyzes you
✔️ Why your provider’s vibe, language, and attitudes matter more than you might realize—and how to spot red flags early
✔️ How to advocate for yourself when your instincts say one thing and the hospital protocol says another
✔️ What it really looks like to make a decision that’s rooted in your truth, your body, and your baby—not anyone else’s agenda
If you’re navigating birth after a cesarean, this episode is your blueprint to making a decision with your head held high and your heart at peace.
🎧 Press play, because birth decisions deserve more than fear—they deserve fierce, evidence-based confidence.
