    112. Dr. Melanie Jackson: The Importance of your Birth Team & Your "Mental Game" in Labor. Her 2 distinctly different Home Birth Stories.

    🌕 Enchanted Full Moon in Leo to you my gorgeous beloveds!  This episode was filmed on November 24th 2025 💮 You are in for an exceptional treat with Dr. Melanie Jackson, she has such a fun energy, is passionate about birth and an excellent story teller! 💮 In this podcast episode Melanie shares her personal birth stories. From her own uncomplicated birth from her Mother to the 2 very different home births of her children.  💮 She describes her path to midwifery & learning that women birth babies at home.  💮 Dr. Melanie Jackson was known for speaking out about physiological birth while practicing as a student within the hospital where her teachers told her she needed to stay quiet.  💮 When Dr Melanie Jackson was preparing to birth her first baby she had a knowing that she would birth early, she told her midwife who didn't believe her. But it turned out Melanie was right.  💮 We chat about the importance of the support of our Birth Team & the “mental game” of labor & birth.  💮 I love how Dr. Melanie Jackson describes laughing hysterically & uncontrollably close to when she birthed her daughter.  💮 Truly, this episode is full of so many gems that I can’t list them all here!  💮 “Dr Melanie Jackson (AKA Melanie The Midwife) loves to help midwives and women around the world better understand and apply the research relating to matrescence (the process of becoming a mother). She does this as the host of The Great Birth Rebellion Podcast, supporting and mentoring midwives, as well as educating mothers. Melanie has a PhD in Midwifery - Birth Outside the System: Wanting the Best and Safest. She has various publications in academic journals. Mel has worked in multiple research roles and lectured at Western Sydney University. Since 2009, Mel has been a Privately Practising Midwife, providing homebirths in the Blue Mountains. She has mentored midwives into private practice in every state and territory across Australia and supports rebellious midwives around the world through The Assembly of Rebellious Midwives and The Convergence of Rebellious Midwives.” from: https://www.melaniethemidwife.com/about Connect with Dr. Melanie Jackson: Website: www.melaniethemidwife.com Instagram @melaniethemidwife @thegreatbirthrebelion  Facebook @melaniethemidwife YouTube @melanirthemidwife6258 Connect with Amana:  Follow me on Instagram:⁠⁠ @AmanaBeLove ⁠⁠ Follow on Youtube: ⁠⁠@AmanaBeLove ⁠⁠ Work with me: ⁠⁠www.AmanaBeLove.com⁠⁠ Birth Trauma Debrief: ⁠⁠https://AmanaBeLove.as.me/BirthHealing⁠⁠ Prepare for your Birth:⁠⁠ https://AmanaBeLove.as.me/BirthPreparation⁠⁠ Grief Support: ⁠⁠https://AmanaBeLove.as.me/GriefGuidance⁠⁠ Have an Intuitive Reading: ⁠⁠https://AmanaBeLove.as.me/IntuitiveReading⁠⁠ Reiki Energy Healing: ⁠https://AmanaBeLove.as.me/EnergyHealing⁠ Wanting to connect with me in a group setting?

    110. Kassandra Miller: From not wanting to be a Mother to fully embracing Motherhood & Birthing her 2 daughters at Home

    Mystical Full Moon to you my Beloved Soul Sisters!  I had the pleasure of recording this episode in person with the magical Kassandra Miller as one of her daughters slept in the other room. Because we are in the same space with one microphone you may hear the sound quality to be a bit different.  I loved the layer of intimacy that came with being in the flesh while hearing Kassandra share her stories.  I hope that you enjoy these homebirth stories that Kassandra shares as well as the bigger journey of matresence and how she went from not wanting to be a Mother, to embracing the full transformation into Mother with all its challenges & gifts!  A bit more about Kassandra from her directly:  My name is Kassandra, 36 and I’m from Spokane, Washington. I grew up with five sisters, and family, connection, and life itself have always been at the center of who I am. I deeply enjoy the fullness of my life—my children, my work in yoga and digestive health, and the endless wisdom of the human body. I believe in our ability to tune in, to listen, and to remember that we are powerful creators of our own well-being. Through movement, nourishment, presence, and awareness, I live and guide others toward a life that feels connected, embodied, and alive. My path into wellness was forged through survival and healing. At a young age, severe microbiome imbalance led to H. pylori overgrowth, gallbladder failure, parasitic overload in my bile ducts, and ultimately bile duct cancer. What began as illness became the doorway to my life’s work. Through deep study of digestion, food as medicine, Ayurveda, years of guiding yoga, hands-on work in colon hydrotherapy, and continued education in parasitology and the living microbiome, I rebuilt my health from the inside out. Today, I guide others through the same inner restoration—supporting the gut, the nervous system, and the body’s natural ability to return to ease, flow, and true function.
