Hello, hello and welcome!

Bearing Birth

Welcome to Bearing Birth, a podcast all about birth stories! In this first episode, your hosts Jordan and Sophie introduce themselves and discuss their “why” for starting a storytelling podcast together about birth. They discuss reasons for sharing one’s birth story and how it can be healing, community building, and in many ways, beneficial. They describe how they came up with their podcast name and what folks can expect from future episodes.

On our podcast, we intend to honor and intentionally hold space for birth stories of guests that do not self-identify as women or mothers. We respect the gender identity and pronouns of each of our guests and will use both the terms woman/mother as well as gender neutral birthing person/parent. We are here to celebrate all those who “mother” and “nurture” and believe all birth stories are worthy of being heard.
Please note, parts of this episode are scripted as Jordan and Sophie wanted to make sure they covered all of their important points to ensure a solid foundation from which to launch their podcast! The format of future episodes will be conversational style.
