What Our Community Have To Say

Kudos

Ain’t nothing like a podcast that is for YOU. The hosts are so gracious and affirming with each episode guest.

I love this show so much! I’ve been binging birth stories during my pregnancy and as a black woman I wanted to hear stories from the experience of black birthers and other birthers of color. Love the interview style and the diversity of stories that are shared. Thank you much for creating this space.

@Sugar3fifty

Wow. I never realized how little I knew about how other women, especially WOC, experienced birth. This really helped to demystify pregnancy and childbirth. I listened to this podcast during my daily 2-miles walks in my third trimester. It was so helpful especially during this pandemic when I’m isolated from a lot of my support systems.

This has been one of my favorite podcast since I first stated that I wanted to be a doula. To have my birth story be featured on there is absolutely honoring, liberating, and step towards elevation in myself as both a mother and a woman.

Your content has been a special space to retreat into during pregnancy, to prepare for birth and beyond.

I just listened to episode 42 with Dasia. Thank you for sharing her story. It was sad and very eye-opening to hear how she was treated in the hospital. I look forward to listening to more episodes!

@NCpianogal

This podcast is so important. The difference in care, safety and so much more needs to be exposed. Thank you for creating this show.

@RaisingAdults

I just listened to Ep. 33 with Divine Nicholas and I am still in awe! So much confirmation in her message, thank you, ladies, for having a space like this for people of color it’s needed!

@Peachislove

This podcast creates such an important space for people of color (and those who support POC in birth) to process, celebrate, and explore what it's like to give birth and what it means to be a parent. So nuturing, so honest, so important. Great work, ladies!

I applaud the work that Laurel and Danielle are doing because we, women of color, must tell our own stories about birthing. There is so much vulnerability in our stories but also liberation for the women who are walking beside us and who will come after us. I get so excited by the website updates with the beautiful morsels of truth that Laurel and Danielle capture for our listening pleasure!
