In this intimate reunion episode, I sit down with international Love and Relationship Coach for Women, Alex Croxford - five years after first crossing paths in a Conscious Conception Tarot Reading Alex booked with me, in which the message of her infedility also came through. 

(Yes we recap that - and the messages that came through from her gorgeous Spirit Baby!)

What unfolded for Alex after 2020 became the catalyst for a profound unraveling and reawakening in Alex’s life.

We explore the rarely voiced story of a woman’s journey in both infidelity - and infertility. 

Alex shares how cheating on her ex-husband, whilst walking through the pain of an IVF journey, became the doorway to her deepest healing.

Alex opens up about how that unraveling led to divorce, a spiritual awakening, celibacy, quitting her career as a TV Executive, a new relationship, pregnancy loss, her viral reel thats been viewed over 7 million times, the creation of her business and healing retreats - where she now guides other women through the same dark terrain she once walked alone.

We speak about the shame and secrecy surrounding women and cheating, what drives someone to cheat, soul contracts and how many women - like Alex - reach their breaking point after years of self-betrayal and emotional suppression.

This conversation goes deep into the territories of grief, guilt, personal reckoning and ultimately - transformation.

You’ll hear about the sacred transformation that becomes possible when truth is finally spoken and how Alex’s medicine from her own personal healing journey now supports other women in their own reclamation.

In this powerful and synchronistic conversation, Veda joins me to explore what it truly means to birth, and Mother, from a place of spiritual sovereignty.

Our connection was deeply aligned from the beginning, and having the chance to come together in person (from opposite sides of the world!) made this conversation even more potent. 

Together, we unravel the forgotten wisdom of lotus birth and placenta energetics, delving into its true purpose as the baby’s guardian and spirit guide on earth.

We ask the question: when did we begin cutting the umbilical cord… and why?

Tracing the roots of this intervention leads us into a larger conversation around ritualised disconnection, organised agendas, and the systemic efforts to sever the sacred bond between mother and child at birth.

Veda opens up about her own journey into sovereignty - catalysed by a medical crisis and guided by messages from her spirit babies.

We discuss how intentional trauma has been used to fragment the mind (including MK Ultra and religious programming), and how both medical and religious institutions serve the same purpose: to siphon life force and suppress the innate power of the mother.

We share the identical message both our sons brought through, and what it truly means to raise children who are emotionally, mentally, physically, and spiritually free.

Other key topics include:

• The agenda behind circumcision
• Veda’s personal experience with vaccine injury as a child
• Reclaiming our right to choose from love, not fear
• Trusting your baby’s wisdom
• What it looks like to work with Veda

This is a reclamation conversation.

I have tried numerous times to add the show notes to this episode, with the words 'forbidden' continuing to come up when I attempt to save it. I'm not surprised. This is a powerful and controversial conversation and something is being flagged in what we're talking about.

In this episode of The Midwitch Podcast, we continue the Rite Remembering solo series with Part 3, exploring the Trinity Wound and its deep connection to the broken and lost rite of passage of birth.

Many women feel an ache—a sense of incompleteness—around their birth experiences, even when their births were seemingly “good.”

This episode unpacks the Trinity Wound and how it reveals itself when the true rite of passage was interrupted, broken, or lost for birthing women transitioning into motherhood.

To support this reclamation, I share three ways women can begin to retrieve the lost rite of passage that was taken from them- including powerful journal prompts to support you.

I explore the vital role of spiritual mentorship in pregnancy—the often-missing first phase of a woman’s rite of passage.

In This Episode I Cover:
+ What the Trinity Wound is and how it relates to birth as a lost initiation
+ The unhealed grief of a broken rite of passage and why it lingers in the body and spirit
+ Three ways to reclaim the lost rite of passage of birth—with journal prompts for deep healing
+ How reclaiming the rite of passage of birth heals personal and collective wounds
+ The importance of spiritual mentorship during pregnancy and why it is the foundation for an embodied birth initiation

I also invite you to share your reflections: If this episode resonated with you, I’d love to hear your thoughts. Share your insights on Instagram and tag me @TheMidwitch, dm me or leave a review on your podcast platform to help more mothers remember the true sacred rite of passage of birth.

This is your invitation to remember. Your birth was always meant to be an initiation Mama.
Let’s reclaim it together.

Welcome to Part 2 of Rite Remembering (the Solo Series) on The Midwich Podcast

In Part 2, I’m unraveling the universal laws of initiation and rites of passage - whilst questioning the modern misinterpretations that have diluted, distorted and weakened its power, for birthing women and mothers

I also dive deep into:

✨ What a true rite of passage actually and it's 3 unchangeable phases
✨ The true root of Birth Trauma - why it's not just what happened, but what was missing
✨ New Earth Birth and the incorrect interpretation of building the 'new'
✨ The energetic consequence and spiritual wound of a broken rite - and the many faces of this in Birth
✨ Why Birth must be returned to the spiritually connected and birth initiated sisters 
✨ Why 'spiritual midwifery' and surface level ceremonies completely contraindict the rite of passage of birth

Are we truly treating birth as a rite of passage, or are we just using the language of initiation without honoring its depth? Listen NOW! Anita x

In every traditional initiation, the threshold is faced in solitude.
So if birth is supposed to be a rite of passage…  

Within 'modern' birth circles, we’ve been told that birth is a rite of passage - and women reclaim birth when we honour this. Books have been written about it!

But what was also suggested, was a midwife stands at the threshold—guardian-ing the rite.

Here’s the problem: A true rite of passage does not have a guardian. A rite of passage requires the initiate to walk alone. That is it's ENTIRE intention, and purpose - as a rite.

So why has birth been framed differently?
And why are birthworkers placed at the center of something that - by its very nature - must be faced alone?

When you look deeper at traditional initiations across cultures, the structure is always the same: 
1 The initiate is prepared in advance. Spiritual mentorship before entering the wild.
2 The threshold is crossed alone.No one guiding, or to outsource to.
3 The return is witnessed.The moment the initiate emerges, changed, and is fully received by the community. 

How did birth—the most ancient, organic initiation of all—get framed differently?
Why, when it comes to birth, do they believe a woman cannot do it?
Do they think she is incapable?
Do they believe birth is different?
Do they not trust that every woman can walk into the wild alone?

Something isn’t adding up.
And I'm getting loud about it, because it's keeping women disconnected and disempowered.
And I feel like there's an agenda. And I'm not OK with it.

Make sure you're following The Midwitch Podcast for Part 2 of the 'Rite Remembering' SOLO SERIES episodes - and join us @themidwitch on Instagram to follow the conversation. It's going to be BIG!

In this powerful episode, I sit down with Amy, a mother whose journey through birth has been nothing short of an initiation.

From a traumatic first birth to an awakening moment in her second, Amy found herself walking the path toward sovereignty—culminating in the freebirth of her third baby at home, in just 90 minutes.

We explore:

✨ Her first birth experience and the trauma that shaped her journey.
✨ The moment of awakening in her second hospital birth that changed everything.
✨ How her third pregnancy stretched to 43 weeks—the deep lessons, surrender, and letting go required before her baby could come.
✨ The bathroom birth—just her and her husband, completely self-led and instinctual.
✨ The initiations of birthing beyond the system and the spiritual transformation that unfolded.
✨ Amy’s work as a spiritual and energetic healer, guiding mothers through birth trauma and reclamation.

This episode is a testament to the wisdom of the body, the power of surrender, and the unshakable knowing that birth is a portal.

Amy’s story is a reminder that birth is not just a physical act - it’s an initiation into something greater. Tune in now to hear Amy’s incredible journey!

In this deeply personal and powerful episode, Bridie opens with a tear-jerking journal entry she wrote post-birth: a raw reflection on the profound lessons that birth gifted her.

We then dive into her unexpected journey to conception, including cycle syncing, pill detoxing and the subconscious manifestation of a surprise baby.

Bridie also shares how she found herself surfing at 37 weeks pregnant, feeling completely at home in her body, moving with the rhythm of the waves - despite questions and criticism from those around her.

This story isn’t just about trust, it’s about fierce boundaries and energetic protection during the pregnancy and birth portal.

Bridie takes us through:

- The synchronistic dreams she and her partner shared
- The midwife birth class from hell—and how it solidified her trust in herself.
- How she navigated unsupportive family and community energy, standing firm in her birth choices from pregnancy through postpartum.
- The powerful message from her baby during an ultrasound - the moment that stopped her from being pulled into the medical system’s cycle of ritualistic testing.
- The 2 unexpected birth guides she became deeply connected to, who showed up to support her through labour.
- Why she put her phone on Do Not Disturb for two weeks leading up to birth to fiercely protect her energy.
- The criticism she faced regarding contact naps and how she leaned into her own instincts instead.
- Her incredible self-healing journey after birth, including how she healed her own tear postpartum.

This episode is an initiation into the wild, instinctual power of birth, the deep lessons our babies bring, and the unwavering strength it takes to walk your own path in a world that often questions it.

If you’ve ever felt the weight of external voices in your pregnancy, birth, or postpartum experience, this episode is for you.

I sit down with Kelly Meehan (who is the the OG Spirit Baby Medium!) to explore the beautiful world of spirit babies and spirit baby communication.

Kelly shares how the term “spirit baby” came to her, and we dive deep into the energetics of conception, surrogacy, infertility and miscarriage.

(Make sure you stay for the end where we discuss raising the vibration of birth to change the reality of birth for the future, Kelly shares a live spirit baby message for you and tells us what it was like to interview the incredible Bruce Lipton!)

Kelly shares her wisdom on:

• • Whether or not every woman has a spirit baby with her.
  • The energetics of infertility and how spirit babies share messages about medical and emotional blocks.
  • The unique energy of twins (twinergy) and the vanishing twins theory.
  • Spirit Babies and Creative Conception Journeys - surrogacy, adoption and IVF (and their link with past lives and ancestral lineages.)
  • The frequency of Miscarriage.
  • How IVF may be prematurely jumping timelines.
  • How impatience in conception and labour moves us further away from nature.
  • Spirit Baby messages on being forced and pushed into the world vs being trusted.

Mentions:

• • Kelly’s Spirit Baby Academy – A 6-month certification program for those ready to learn and practice spirit baby communication.
  • Conception Journey Membership – Includes group readings, energy work and children’s readings.
  • Kelly’s Book – Notes from a Spirit Baby Medium

This episode is for anyone ready to reimagine what is possible when they align with their spirit baby’s guidance.

In this eye-opening episode, I sit down with Hayley Wilson (a fellow birthworker), to delve into the untold truths about homebirth midwifery in Australia. 

Whilst PPM's (Privately Pracitising / Homebirth Midwives) are often portrayed as independent, alternative and holistic; the reality reveals a deeper entanglement with the healthcare system’s policies and restrictions.

We discuss the betrayal many birthing women feel when they discover the limitations imposed on these midwives, and therefore themselves in birth, often hidden behind the language of individualised care - and even 'rebellion'.

Together, we unpack the systemic constraints that overshadow and shape their practice and how these realities impact the birthing experience for women seeking mother-centric care.

This conversation is for birthing women to understand who and what they are bringing into their birth space when hiring a Homebirth Midwife - with 2 very important questions you should be asking uring the hiring process.

We have Katie sharing her story on the Midwitch Podcast today, sharing her freebirth story just 3 weeks post birth with us!

Katie shares the intimate details of her freebirth (just days before the Hurricanes hit Florida in October this year), as well as her conscious conception and spiritually managed pregnancy journey - plus how participating in (and facilitating!) Ayahuasca ceremonies prepared her for freebirth.

As you'll hear, Katie's story and life is so unique! A fundamentalist religious group escapee, turned nudist, now living within a naturalist community - Katie shares details of what brought her to the moment of birthing her daughter with only her husband present, in an open aired bath tub under the stars, next to their converted bus!

Plus the fleeting moment of fear she dipped into post birth, within minutes of her daughter emerging - and how she and her husband navigated this.

You're going to love Katie and this conversation!

We have Arielle The Cosmic Channel all the way from Colorado on the Midwitch Podcast today!

We chat all things energy healing, 5th, 7th and 9th Dimensions, false light modalities, online discernment, integrity and consent within the world of healing. Arielle also shares a LIVE powerful Light Language transmission with us!
In 2020 Arielle channeled an entire 9D healing frequency that she speaks about, as well as the Nervous System work she had to do to expand her capacity to bring it to the world - off the back of a channeled realisation that the era of Reiki is over.
You're going to love this conversation! It was such a pleasure to speak with Arielle and hear another Energy Healer's story, what it's like to practice this in the world and what this can look like in the New Earth! Arielle also offers our community a very generous DISCOUNT CODE at the very end, which you can apply to her services.

Join us for a beautiful conversation with Earth Mama Hayley from Earthed Intimacy as we dive deep into the world of Yoni Mapping, Internal Pelvic Work, Parasympathetic Arousal - as we also explore the overmarketed realms of nervous system regulation, somatics and the (online) quest for cervical and pleasure orgasms.

Hayley is an Internal Bodywork Yoni Mapping Therapist, that draws on a range of healing modalities to bring her clients to a place of self intimacy.

Hayley shares with us a detailed walkthrough of what a Yoni Mapping / Massage session entails from start to finish (and the importance of anatomy education in these practices) how Parasympathetic Arousal differs from other forms of arousal, her wise insights on the expectations and outcomes around women opening up their legs for inspection and exploration, understanding the body's way of giving consent beyond just a verbal yes - and much much more.

Every woman should listen to this episode!

I speak with Asteroid Chart Reader and Healer, Kristy Borbas, who shares with us the Feminine version of Astrology and how this aigns with the re-emergence of the Divine.

We discuss the Patriarchal shift in Astrology and how we can personally use these feminine placements to release and heal all that has been hidden and supressed within us - as women and Mothers.

We cover the 4 main Asteroids (plus some bonuses!), which Goddesses govern them, the houses and areas of life they activate and which feminine wounds can be healed through them.

Plus some Greek Mythology, Kristy's pilgrimage back to her Motherland, archetypal work and more!

DeAnn knew that a reconnection to her Higher Self was key in opening up a mindset in preparation for birth that was like no other.

Listen as DeAnn speaks about the absolute necessity of birthing women learning how to reconnect to this powerful guidance from within, the way she created and nurtured this relationship herself, and why it is key in preventing birthing women leaning into external support that isn't right for them.

After her dreambirth was taken away from her during an abusive, highly intervened with and traumatic first birth experience (following the diagnosis of Gestational Thrombocytopenia at 35 weeks) Kailah knew something wasn't right post birth and opened herself up to another way for her next birthing experience.

Feeling unprepared and lacking the feminine guidance she desired in her first pregnancy (although she received continuity of care) and realising Private Midwifery and Doula support was unaffordable, she divinely reconnected with a friend who brought the idea of birthing unassisted into her consciousness.

Kailah shares her pregnancy and labour journey, what she had to work through after the fear of "bleeding out" had been planted in her head by medical professionals first time round and the backlash she received from her family that did not condone her choices, one day after birth.

The Intelligence of Water with Veda Austin

Veda Austin is a Water Researcher, taking Crystallographic images of frozen water - visually capturing the way water responds to influences around it and producing mind blowing results that show quite clearly that water does have it's own intelligence, in the 3D realm and beyond the veil.

In this episode we discuss the intelligence of water in relation to pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding, our amniotic fluid, early birth blood, fertile and infertile semen and many more examples of the way bodily fluids can tell us something about ourselves.

I have many questions for Veda in this episode; about the way the moon affects water, if ocean water can become informed, how exactly our thoughts and feelings imprint on us as literal bodies of water and how water stores information and memory.

Celebrating Death in Birth: The Early Freebirth of Freya Rose

After experiencing a traumatic first birth, Erin decided she was going to freebirth her second child and during her pregnancy weaved a beautiful web of wise women around her; who would later become her supportive tribe when she birthed her babe early.

Erin speaks so powerfully and so candidly about the loss of her baby girl and the medicine she received in being able to do so. She touches on the stigma around miscarriages and the unspoken process that becomes so dehumanised by the way society speaks about it and her newfound understanding that she wishes to share with other women - that death is sad, but not scary.

Erin shares about the painful moment she first realised her baby had died, she describes the physiology of birthing her baby undisturbed and freely in her home, the difference between fear and body wisdom/intuition, the ways in she which she honoured her daughter, herself and her experience - and expresses so perfectly the duality of celebrating life and death together.

Erin shares the gratitude and growth she leant into, her new relationship to life and birth via the desire she had to experience it all (physically, emotionally, spiritually and mentally), the reclamation of, and reconnection to her body wisdom, through witnessing her body birth her babe unassisted - and the beautiful way she speaks about it all with her youngest daughter.

Erin now facilitates Early Birth Shamanic Healing and Celebratory Ceremony and Ritual for women and is also now teaching Birthworkers how to come into relationship with death as a part of birthwork, so that they are able to support birthing women without fear.

In this informative episode, Laura shares her knowledge and wisdom around a topic that has been denied to women for so many generations; autonomy in managing our own reproductive health.

Laura speaks about Body Literacy for Girls and the ways in which we can create spaces to guide young women in reconnecting with their mammalian nature - to come into their power before they outsource pharmaceutical products or medical advice.

We speak about the Pill and it's damaging effects, the natural forms of contraception and conception (that no one is speaking about), the difference between The Rhythm Method and FAM (The Fertility Awareness Method), learning to observe the body for hormonal health and fertility and our common dislike of Period Tracking Apps.

We chat about common female reproductive health issues such as PCOS, Endometriosis, cysts and fibroids - some of the causes of these and offers some wise woman practices to correct them. Laura delves into Postpartum Tracking for Mothers and squashes the myths around a postpartum mother's cycle returning.

This episode if full of the wisdom we wished our Grandmothers and the Crones in our communities had of passed down to us!
