In this episode, I sit down with Danielle James as she takes us through not 1, not 2, but 6 births! She walks us through her incredible journey as a mother so far and how her previous birthing experiences ultimately led her to free birth her last two babies. Danielle is a clear example of how her intuition was there even at a young age and how, more often than not, it's everyone else's discomfort and miss trust in pregnancy, birth, postpartum and beyond that impacts the woman and baby’s experience. She is a wonderful voice for women's rights in the birth world, and I enjoyed this episode so much. It's a corker! What you’ll hear: *Danielle’s wild initiation into womanhood *Becoming a mum at 15 *How she managed three kids under four at the age of 19 *Her hospital experiences birthing her first five babies *Her most recent free birth story *How she's preparing for her next free birth If you interested in 1 on 1 coaching you can find Danielle over on Instagram @daniellejamescoach x
