She's a mom of two, a pharmacist and wife. She shares her two vastly different births, with her first she had the typical hospital birth experience which wound up in surgery and went to to have a difficult recovery. 
So when it came to her second pregnancy she was determined not to go through the same however, she struggled to find a provider to support her in her birth plan but managed to have a powerful unassisted VBAC at home. 
Tune in to hear how her second birth impacted her in how she mothers her children and approaches life's challenges.

Today we have Ofentse Tipa. She's a South African youtuber, love coach and mother of one based in Kenya.

She always knew she wanted to be a mother and after living with her pastor who had three homebirths herself, she knew that was what she wanted when the time came.

Although her homebirth did not go as planned, she received great care from her midwife and emphasizes the point that: it's okay for your plans to change and solid postpartum care was crucial for her.
