How do you truly honor birth?
Dr. Nathan Riley joins us for the second time on the podcast. First time was back in 2019, and a lot of life has changed for him.
For one thing, he’s welcomed both of his daughters into the world. And today we talk about the home birth of the youngest (about 5 weeks old at the time of this interview). Nathan shares his perspective of the experience, as a father, partner and physician.
Nathan also talks about the space he holds for birth and how he has evolved from an OBGYN practicing in the hospital to a more lifestyle medicine approach where he supports both parents and birth workers.
The nuggets in this episode are too many to count and drop at such a rapid rate. You might need to hit pause and rewind a few times, that’s how powerful it is!
Things we talk about in this episode: 

hospital model of care

hospital birth

home birth story

fast labor and delivery

trusting and bearing witness to birth
