The Free Birth Society Podcast features honest, gripping, inspiring, and transformative freebirth stories hosted by the founder Emilee Saldaya in conversation with wild women worldwide.
In the vast tapestry of childbirth experiences, a thread runs undisturbed, unmedicated, and true to its ancestral roots: freebirth. This differs from your usual home birth with doulas or midwives in attendance. Freebirth stands apart, where birthing is solely in the hands of the birthing woman, accompanied only by her intuition, rhythms of nature, witnessed by her family.
The Free Birth Podcast invites you to a unique corner of the universe where we dive deep into the raw essence of birth, untamed and unassisted. Pushing against the tides of modern obstetrics and its violent approach, we venture into stories of women who've boldly chosen to claim this primal rite of passage. Here, we're not merely sharing tales; we're challenging the status quo and redefining the very narrative of childbirth.
As we unravel discussions on rights in childbirth, dissect varied care models, and amplify the unfiltered voices of freebirthing women from around the planet, our purpose remains clear: to spotlight the distinction and significance of wild birth. This isn't an argument against the myriad ways women choose to birth, but rather an affirmation that freebirth has its revered space in the continuum of birth choices.
Join us in celebrating a movement that underscores the powerful message and has changed the lives of thousands: Birth, in its purest form, is not a medical event but a profoundly personal journey.
The Free Birth Society Podcast is your compass to navigate and rediscover that journey.
*Freebirth = Birthing in the absence of any hired professionals, away from medical institutions or their agents. Also known as family birth, unassisted birth, wild birth.
*Sovereign birth = Birthing outside of the medical paradigm, inclusive of births with authentic midwives and doulas. We include many stories on the show where women birthed outside of the medical system with doulas and radical birth keepers. While these births are not freebirths, they are certainly sovereign births!

When Her Husband Missed the Birth and His Mother Stepped In
Saison 10 · Épisode 13
vendredi 16 octobre 2026 • Durée 01:08:39
Gabrielle shares her two unassisted births, from a casual, confident mountain birth to an intense hot tub labor, and what trusting her body's natural rhythm taught her both times. Along the way, she talks about building a real women's circle, the kind that shows up with groceries and childcare, not just encouragement. This one is for anyone questioning mainstream birth norms and curious about what becomes possible when a woman stops managing her body and starts trusting it.

I Thought I Was Getting Care - I Was Being Managed
Saison 10 · Épisode 10
mercredi 7 octobre 2026 • Durée 01:19:15
The difference between a managed birth and a truly lived one can change everything. Gracie shares how a pregnancy that began with fear, false alarms, and a medical system that never seemed to stop escalating led her to question what she was actually consenting to - and what women lose when they hand over their authority. From a terrifying early call about spina bifida markers that turned out to be wrong, to a midwife who opened labor with criticism instead of care, Gracie’s first birth exposes how easily pregnant women can be steered, managed, and emotionally destabilized. But her second pregnancy and freebirth tell a radically different story.

From People-Pleasing to Power: Jasmine Chooses Freebirth
Saison 10 · Épisode 6
mercredi 23 septembre 2026 • Durée 01:12:40
The advice to “just trust the system” falls apart fast when you’ve already been gaslit by doctors, pressured toward induction, and made to feel like your own body can’t be trusted. Jasmine shares the full arc from her first hospital birth, and the quiet unease that followed, to the radically different freebirth that changed how she sees motherhood, power, and herself.
She opens up about a messy first pregnancy, an OB-led experience that included pressure around size, a threatened induction at 39 weeks, and the claustrophobic feeling of being managed instead of supported. But the deeper story is what happened after birth: postpartum isolation, dark thoughts she was too afraid to say out loud, and the people-pleasing pattern that kept her suffering silently.
Then everything shifts. In her next pregnancy, Jasmine finds Free Birth Society, devours hundreds of hours of podcast stories, and starts to imagine something she never thought possible: having her baby at home, without a midwife, on purpose.
