Hello, friends! Weâre back just the two of us like old times.
Kat kicks off this episode reflecting on how wildly different her first birth with her son was compared to her redemptive, sovereign homebirth outside the medical industrial complex with her daughter just 26 months later.
Katâs initiation into motherhood in 2022 involved bait-and-switches, homebirth medwifery sabotage, and an unhealthy fixation on blood pressure resulting in fear mongering, a distrust and pathology of birth, an unnecessary hospital transfer, false pre-eclampsia diagnosis, and ultimately a c-section.
Fast forward 17 months when Kat discovered she was pregnant with her second baby after just the first try (thanks Anisa Woodall!)
Kat recounts her journey from deprogramming and unlearning everything she thought she ever knew about birth, to becoming fully embodied, taking radical responsibility for her birth choices, and completely surrendering to and trusting every step of the process.
All of this laid the groundwork for having a mother-led, intuitive, homebirth in the absence of any licensed provider in favor of the unconditional support of her husband and radical birthkeeper Ali. NO cervical checks, membrane sweeps, inductions, doing anything to âget labor going,â ultrasounds, Doppler, suggestions or threats of a hospital transfer, coached pushing, or management of the third stage of labor.
Kat also discusses the process of obtaining a birth certificate when you choose to give birth outside of the system (if that's the route you wish to take) and answers questions you posed about the birth on Instagram.

Morgan a.k.a. @VeryCrunchyMama unveils some hard truths about the correlations between the consumption of artificial food dyesâ which are sadly ubiquitous and hidden in foods you would never suspectâ and children's behavior and chronic disease.
We discuss the deceptive name changes that recently went into effect with these toxic dyes as well as what each of us would do in a scenario where our children were offered food dyes.
Towards the end, Morgan differentiates between "cleanwashing" vs. "greenwashing" and how to keep it simple when it comes to transitioning away from toxic household chemicals and into a lifestyle abundant in minimalism and holistic health.

Lisa Hendrickson-Jack is a certified Fertility Awareness Educator and Holistic Reproductive Health Practitioner who trains womenâs health practitioners to use their menstrual cycle as a vital sign in their practices. She is the founder of the Fertility Awareness Mastery Mentorship program. She is the author of three bestselling books: Real Food For Fertility (co-authored with Lily Nichols), The Fifth Vital Sign, and the Fertility Awareness Mastery Charting Workbook.
In this episode we discuss:
Why the non-hormonal IUD really isn't so benign despite some women preferring this birth control method.The science behind how cervical fluid is a powerful indicator of your overall health and cervical cell healthThe mechanics of how ovulation works from estrogen levels, LH and follicle ripenessWhy the feminist movement's programming that men and women should be equal in every respect has backfired specifically as it relates to how we move through life during the different phases in our cycle and throughout the feminine cycles of our lifetime (menstruation, pregnancy, postpartum, and menopause).Why reliance on cycle tracking apps alone as a way to plan or prevent pregnancy is not sufficient and what the best marker of fertility actually is.What is common vs. what is normal in regard to ovulation and our menstrual cyclesWhy sperm counts have been on the decline since the 1940s and by how muchThe specific role men play in the fertility equation and just how much agency both men and women have in regard to ameliorating their fertility outcomes through lifestyle choicesConsiderations to ponder in regard to IVF

Since we have yet to unravel the profound topic of pregnancy loss, particularly from a sovereign woman's perspective, we invite you to witness Alex's moving story of the loss of her daughter Lila in the moments after birth.
Alex chose to experience a wild pregnancyâ a pregnancy outside the obstetric industrial complex, devoid of ultrasounds, blood work, measuring, tracking, and testingâ and despite the emotional suffering she endured as a result of her tragic loss, she explains why she would not hesitate to proceed with another wild pregnancy and freebirth the second time around.
We discuss themes such as the fine line between birth and death, how nobody and no technology can "save" us, the way our society views miscarriage and stillbirth in the hospital vs. at home, setting boundaries with well-meaning yet fearful friends and family, and we hear Alex's theory on the likely cause of death of her sweet baby girl.
Follow Alex on instagram and DM her to join her virtual loss support group.
Regardless of whether you've experienced a miscarriage or stillbirth or where you chose to give birth, you are welcome to join Alex's support group.

What does it mean to be a "radical" mom nowadays, and what is so radical about the way we mother?What is going on with the nefarious motives of certain formula companies i.e. Bobbie and their infamous marketing campaigns?Low supply seems like such a common perceived and pathologized issue, but how many women have real as opposed to perceived low milk supply, and what are the physiological factors that actually cause it?What's up with the social media trends that seem to disparage motherhood for clicks and views?Subscribe to Radical Moms Union's Substack: https://radicalmomsunion.substack.com/

Most holistic-minded moms already know screen time is objectively bad and try to limit it or only rely on it as a brief, last-resort. But, just how bad is it really?
Melanie Hempe, mother of four and the founder of the non-profit ScreenStrong, keeps it 100% real with us when divulging the truth about the way screen time is robbing our children of a healthy and happy childhood.
What effects do interacting with a device have whether itâs a tablet, iPhone, or television on a childâs developing brain, and why should parents think twice about when and whether to introduce screens to their children?Is there such a thing as âgoodâ types of screen time or screens in moderation?What about low-stimulating shows for short periods of time?We of course also had to discuss the alarming, modern phenomenon of children glued to iPads while out at restaurants.
In our tech-obsessed society, is it even realistic to expect parents to forego screens for their children such as refusing to give children smartphones for the first 18 years of life?

Kristen is a former NICU nurse of nearly a decade who saw some things she cannot unsee. Her great awakening transpired during the COVID madness, and she does not hold back when we ask her what she witnessed behind the scenes in the NICU and in the hospital setting as a whole, as well as what she bravely endured with her very own children.
Kristen walks us through the vaccine injuries she witnessed amongst her three children, and what she wishes she knew as a former NICU nurse prior to becoming "awake".
We find out what parents of NICU babies need to know and how they can best arm themselves prior to the daunting NICU experience. Find out how the NICU does not practice informed consent and which shots are routinely administered to your baby regardless of your baby's weight or condition.
Which states are the best in regard to exercising medical freedom according to Kristen?What are the most unethical and non-evidence based practices Kristen witnessed imposted upon our most vulnerable populationâ premature babiesâ during her time in the NICU?And a question many of you have posed to us directly in email: what's the best vaccine protocol for a premature baby?Connect with Kristen on Instagram.

Since our last episode featuring Nicole Cheever aired nearly a year ago during which we discussed Elimination Communication, we're thrilled to welcome her back to exclusively discuss potty training!
This is not your typical potty training pep talk. Nicole breaks down potty training the Go Diaper Free way. This method is aligned with how our wise women ancestors successfully got their babies out of diapers no later than 18 months old without bribes, sticker charts, shame, and coercion.
How and why did we get to where we are todayâ a time when diapering our children well beyond 2-3 years old has been normalized and in some cases even encouraged? What are the real signs of "readiness" when it comes to potty training?

We sit down with the one and only Lily Nichols, RDN & CDEâ author of Real Food for Gestational Diabetes, Real Food for Pregnancy, and her latest work, Real Food for Fertility, to set the record straight and debunk myths about some of the most common preconception and pregnancy routine practices and complications. The nutritional choices we make do have an impact on all of these areas, and the mainstream medical paradigm is slow to adapt, per usual.
In this episode we discussed:
What is the real deal with the infamous glucose test? Why is the artificial orange drink a.k.a. Glucola the âgold standardâ when testing women for Gestational Diabetes, and what are the shortcomings with the 50g, 75g, and 100g screening tests? How can Gestational Diabetes be managed, and what is the problem with the mainstream medical modelâs current guidelines for GD management?When it comes to preconception and fertility, we of course have to mention The Pill. What must women know about their fertility when coming off the pill, and how does hormonal birth control impact future fertility outcomes and nutrient stores?What is recurrent miscarriage and how can women uncover the root cause?Male Factor Fertilityâ what is one thing all men can do across the board to contribute to the fertility equation, since we know they play a role in this too?What is the biggest scam with mainstream advice given for gestational hypertension, and what guidance should women follow instead?Find Lily here

Oni, an Atlanta-based postpartum doula and single, homeschooling mom to two daughters aged eight and ten reveals her methods for making her non-traditional lifestyle work for her rather than against her. We loved the gentle wisdom and powerful reminders woven into this interview and we hope they resonate just as much with you.
We delve into concepts such as:the importance of veering away from the martyrdom mindset in motherhoodOni's abandonment of the feminist movement and her calling to homeschool her two girlshow single motherhood does not have to pose a barrier to homeschooling and/or your careerhow we women need to lean on our local community in person, not just online, for holistic supportthe delicate balance of setting boundaries and showing up as her authentic self as a postpartum doula while also staying open-minded to clients' varying needsthe debacle of the night shift as a postpartum doulaâ does it help or hinder the breastfeeding relationship within the mother-baby dyad?how we don't have to and should not try to be everything to everyone when serving clients in our businesshow to know when it's the right time to take an overnight trip without your little one

The (K)at is finally out of the bag! Kat is expecting baby #2!! It would be a little weird if we withheld the most compelling aspects of this wild pregnancy and plans for a sovereign birth (we explain what that means too) as two moms who host a podcast dedicated to pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. So, we of course had to divulge the details. It's too exciting not to share! We answer some of our listener questions submitted via instagram stories as well.

Hilda Labradore Gore is the host and producer of Wise Traditionsâ the official Weston A. Price Foundation podcast.
Hilda brings her innate positivity, decades-long wisdom on ancestral practices, and exuberant demeanor to the virtual table where the three of us discuss topics such as:
How do we know which food movements du jour are truly right for us? Raw Milk and beef liver are all the rage now, but before that everyone was talking about Paleo, Keto, Pegan, Raw before 4pm and the list goes on.Should we be concerned with the latest measles "outbreak"?How can we embrace the "80/20" lifestyle with what we know about artificial food dyes, glyphosate, and other false foods that hijack our taste buds?What are Hilda's favorite go-to simple, nutrient-dense snacks for young children and dinners for the entire family?What is one simple way we can deepen our connection and strengthen our relationship with our children?How we can nourish our families outside of diet?Food fads that will not age will such as the normalization of seed oils and lab-grown meat!We absolutely loved our conversation with Hilda! As her IG handle suggests, she has a completely holistic perspective on caring for ourselves and our families, and her warmth beams during this interview. We hope you gleaned as much inspiration and wisdom from this upbeat and enlightening conversation as we did.

First, itâs important to know what the milestones and averages are in regard to spoken words by specific age targets. Yes, every child does develop at his or her own pace; however, within *reason*.
We reflect upon the main contributors to a burgeoning vocabulary versus speech delays that should raise red flags.
We learn about optimal environments and lifestyles parents can embody in order to maximize their childâs communication capacity.
Weâll discuss why TV shows are not an appropriate substitute for 1:1 human interaction when it comes to teaching our children. It's a tough pill to swallow, but even the "educational programs" are not ideal. TV is a tool and we need to treat it as such.
Youâll also hear about the âwait and seeâ approach still recommended by pediatricians and the main reasons why speech delays have been on a significant rise over the last few years.

Hear all about the MOTR approach to baby-led weaning. In this episode, we share our takes on:
what we think of baby-led weaninghow itâs different from simply âstarting solidsâ overcoming obstacles mothers face when considering solids (fear of choking, allergens, breastfeeding relationships, etc). why we donât care about added sodium for infants and what that evidence actually says (hint: itâs inconclusive)how we feel about purĂ©e pouches and stereotypical âbaby foodâwhy your pediatrician is not the expert on baby-led weaningsigns of readiness and why anything under 6 months old is too young to start solidsStay tuned for part 2 for an even deeper dive on meals we offer our children, BLW hacks, staying the course during travel and dining out, and so much more.

Some women want two under two so they can âget the baby phase over withâ in one fell swoop. Other women intentionally space their children 3+ years apart for various reasons such as socioeconomic and health.

Whether you are currently considering conscious or unconscious conception, the choice of how far apart to space your babies can impact you in ways beyond what you may have imagined.
So, what is the best interpregnancy interval between children? Is there even such a thing? Is one length more optimal than another? There are both objective and subjective answers behind this enigma.
We polled our loyal followers in our Instagram stories back in November about what the âperfectâ age gap is between children, and we share those results along with your reasoning.
We also share the risks, benefits, pros and cons of short and long interpregnancy intervals. Did any of these surprise you?
If you are curious on what the latest evidence says about optimal pregnancy spacing, we read excerpts from the âPregnancy Spacingâ chapter in Lily Nicholsâ book âReal Food for Pregnancy.â
The bottom line is- like everything that has to do with motherhood choices- only YOU will know the best interpregnancy interval for your body and your family. There are several factors that need to be considered beyond your and your babyâs physical health and well being- all of which we unpack during this episode.
