Ann Marie Rian, CPM, LM is a home birth midwife and wise woman with expertise in homeopathy, herbal medicine, prenatal education, midwifery education, and so much more.

In this episode, we discuss Ann Marie’s experience as a doula, her path to becoming a midwife, lessons from her teachers and nervous system, and transformative experiences that shape both midwives and parents. Our discussion highlights the importance of building confidence in families, the role of authority in healthcare, and the personal growth that comes from supporting others through the birthing process. She also shares her own home birth story featuring a nuchal hand and her partner catching her daughter as well as her experience with postpartum anxiety, isolation, and how the complexities of the postpartum experience has impacted her approach to birth.
