Join us as we hubble, bubble, toil, and trouble our way through aspects of midwifery, birth, lactation, and womanhood. We tackle and discuss a variety of topics within the sphere of womanhood, birth, and lactation and what this entails in today's society. We want to be able to share in the strengths of women gathering together and being more informed, for their birth, their feeding experience, and the transition into knowing ourselves better. This is the podcast to connect us as a greater circle of women united.

Wonderful podcast
I started listening when I was pregnant with my 2nd and am still listening because it’s fascinating and the hosts are real and funny. If you are interested in getting balanced and honest information about birth you should listen to this!
The best midwifery podcast out there!
I started this podcast when I had a long commute, and now I don’t know what I’ll do when I catch up to the most recent episode! Maybe I’ll have to listen a second time like other reviewers 😄 since starting the podcast I’ve decided to take the plunge and become a doula, instead of sticking it out in my lab job until it’s the right time to become a midwife. Thank you to Katie and Rachel for your amazing work and spending the time to get this information out there. As Amy Brown put it so well, informed is best!
„Amazing“ is understatement
Season 2 ended with the Hannah Dahlen interview on the sexiness of research and science, so inspiring!
This is such an important podcast, not only for birthworkers and lactation consultants, because it shows everybody HOW research can be done when it is done BY women and FOR women. So much needed and still far too rare on this planet! Thank You!!!
