Acerca de esta escucha

 Step into to the wild, untamed heart of childbirth. HEAR ME ROAR is more than a podcast—it’s part of a movement toward birthing in freedom, sovereignty, and unshakable trust in our bodies. Co-hosted by Sarah Hawley and Brittany Costello, this space celebrates the reclamation of the fierce, intuitive power within every woman. Through raw, unfiltered conversations, we’ll explore the lasting impact of medicalized births on women’s lives and the transformative journeys that lead them to free birth. Our guests share deeply personal experiences—of disillusionment with medical births, the very real and traumatic consequences they’ve experienced, and the healing, empowerment, and liberation they discovered through birthing in sovereignty. By weaving ancient wisdom with bold conversations, HEAR ME ROAR challenges conventional narratives and honors birth as sacred, raw, and ours to define. Whether you’re preparing for your own journey or seeking solidarity, this is your space to listen, learn, and roar in your truth.Copyright 2024 All rights reserved.
