Hi, I’m Lauretta—midwife, birth educator, and your guide through the wild, beautiful ride of pregnancy, birth, and beyond. And yes, I’m currently recording in a cupboard, surrounded by towels and pillows (because, well…acoustics). 

But imposter syndrome aside, this podcast has been a dream of mine for years. Why? Because I believe that when it comes to birth, you have choices. You have options. There’s no one right way—only the way that’s right for you. 

In The Midwife Memos, I’ll be sharing my insights from years of working with women, birthing people, and families, as well as my studies in birth education, anatomy and Acuneedling. Each episode will bring you: 

✨ Midwife memos on key topics 

Conversations with experts, fellow midwives & those with lived birth experiences. Practical, evidence-based guidance to help you feel confident & in control 

This is a limited-season podcast, with new episodes dropping weekly. My goal? That you leave each episode feeling informed, empowered, and excited about your birth. 

So, if this sounds like something you need in your life, hit subscribe and join me next week for the very first episode!
