In our very first episode of Girly Pop Birth Talks, Becca sits down with her co-host Arielle to dive deep into her three unique birth stories — from a hospital induction, to a free-standing birth center at 41 weeks, to a spontaneous home birth with a midwife.
But Arielle’s journey goes far beyond birth. Listen in as she shares her path from a typically American childhood to studying nutrition, becoming a registered dietitian specializing in eating disorders, and mastering her craft as a lactation consultant — from WIC clinics to in-home visits. Along the way, she meets her husband Kyle, and the rest is a beautiful, messy, empowering history.
In This Episode:
- What Arielle learned from each of her three very different births
- The shift from conventional hospital care to trusting her body at home
- How her professional work with women, babies, and families shaped her own motherhood
- Balancing career, marriage, and mom life while supporting others
