Hey Mama! I am Amanda, I am a wife, truth loving, mama of 4. I have had an unexpected cesarean and 2 successful homebirths. For 3 years I have been advocating, teaching, and rooting for moms in their pregnancy, births, through postpartum and in their motherhood. I was and am a young mom and started off with little to no knowledge on how to have a baby, let alone how to take care of my baby, what to expect in those seasons of my life, and how to advocate for myself and family.
Through education, tools and other wise mothers I was able to know what my mom-gut was leading to me do and I am now able to walk confidently on a path that is best for me and my family, and I am ready to share that with you!
If you are ready to learn the power that comes with knowledge that is easy to understand and fully prepares you for the results that bring confidence, reduce fear, and lets your voice be found and heard- This podcast is for you!
Throw up your unbrushed hair, hike up those high waisted pants, put the baby in the ergo, and let’s start feeding that God given mom-gut!

E38: I'm in My First Trimester of PREGNANCY, What is exactly happening?!
Season 2 · Episode 38
Thursday, September 19, 2024 • Duration 40:38
Welcome back to the Simplify Birth and Motherhood podcast, where you can get clarity to make informed decisions for your pregnancy, childbirth, postpartum, and as a mother. You are in your first trimester and depending on what point you are at your body and baby have already done AMAZING things and will continue to do AMAZING things! The way I like to describe first trimester is that your body and baby are laying down a solid foundation for the remainder of your pregnancy and baby's life outside the womb. With that you might not be feeling all the greatest and it is often a feeling of guilt that we are not "on track" the way we have hoped or want to be. But don't fear! In this episode we will talk about what is and has already happened, even before you found out you were pregnant, why certain things we do can be vital to these building blocks, and what simple things you can focus on during this time!

E30: Part 2 - Using Alternatives in Pregnancy, Birth, Postpartum, and for Our Families. Understanding Homeopathy and Birth Transfers
Season 1 · Episode 30
Monday, December 4, 2023 • Duration 27:43
Welcome back to the Simplify Birth & Motherhood Podcast where you can get clarity to empower your informed decision making for your pregnancy, birth, in postpartum, and in motherhood. In this episode, we are talking about part 2 in all things homeopathy and how it is a great alternative for use in pregnancy, during childbirth, postpartum, and with our growing family. I have seasoned mother, homeopathic user, retired midwife, and 10 year Le Leche League leader Jessica Bingaman.
Jessica was often compelled to chart her own course. She chose to birth naturally, nurse longer than the cultural norm, homeschool, and use traditional remedies over Western medicine when possible. Throughout her years she often wished that there was someone to coach her through her alternative choices or just listen while she processed how she would walk through the next stage of her parenting. Jessica turned that desire into a passion to take all that she learned and sometimes struggled to put into practice and use it to support other mamas and their growing families.
Come listen to learn:
What is homeopathy? What does this all include?
For some who hasn't used it before, how do you use it and how does it work? What are somethings to keep in mind while using it?
What are some common concerns that families have that can cause some hesitation in using homeopathy? Can you use them with other OVC medicine or antibiotics?
How is homeopathy used in pregnancy, birth, postpartum, for infants/young/teen/ children for things like nausea, heartburn, headache, pain, cold and flu, allergies, etc.
Why do we see homeopathic medicine being used more often in birth environments than others? What can we learn from the use of homeopathic medicine and why homebirth/birth center transfers happen?
Do you have questions about your pregnancy, about childbirth, or about postpartum that you wish to get off your chest and would like to receive answers that can bring some clarity and bring more confidence?
