Beth's journey to homebirth midwifery || 20 years working towards homebirth midwifery, the red thread, and women's rite's of passage

Birthing at Home: A Podcast

What did you think?

In this month's midwife story, chat with Beth. Beth shares her story spanning over 20 years now, including her first experience attending a homebirth and then her work as a midwife and eventual transition into private midwifery attending home births. We also chat about girls and women’s rites of passage and her amazing walking emerging wwoman workshops.
I first met Beth almost 10 years ago now when studying midwifery so it was beautiful to catch up and learn more about her story all these years later!
Please share this story, especially with student midwives who may be interested in homebirth midwifery!
