As a long-time listener of the show, Alyssa was excited to pay it forward and be a part of the conversation that helped her in her own journey.

We talk about her process of choosing home birth and the comparison between that and some of the traumatic elements of her first birth with her twins. Also the support of her birth team and a lot of the resources she used in preparation and during birth itself.
