About this episode

Emilee Saldaya interviews mother-daughter duo Jinny and Audrey about their experiences with freebirth and the lessons of sovereignty.

This week on the Free Birth Society Podcast, Emilee sits down with Jinny and Audrey , a remarkable mother–daughter duo with sovereign birth woven through both of their lives. Jinny , a mother of seven and birth doula, shares how her third birth became a freebirth when she decided not to return to the hospital after feeling mistreated during labor check-in. Jinny shares the story of her four vaginal breech births, surprise twins, and an unwavering confidence in her body. Audrey , a Radical Birth Keeper graduate and freebirth entrepreneur, assumed that she would never have children. But when she found herself pregnant in her thirties, she quickly opted out of the obstetrical track. After navigating a shocking breech birth in the OR with 18 people watching, followed by an upsetting midwife-attended homebirth, Audrey knew she was ready to claim freebirth from that point on. Together, Jinny and Audrey share stories of breech babies, surprise twins, precipitous birth, and the lessons of sovereignty. Audrey also speaks candidly about navigating backlash and public scrutiny—and how she continues to find the will to keep going. ✨ Start Your Journey: The Complete Guide to Freebirth - Our…
