We're Maryn + Margo

We are mamas and birth workers who decided to do birth differently– and bring others along with us. We are kind, fun to work with, and great at (lovingly) calling people on their bullshit. With 12 children and 20 years of midwifery between us, we’ve learned a thing or two along the way, and Indie Birth is our space to share it all with you.

Sam is a prenatal yoga teacher, doula, and mother of two boys, presently residing on the Kentucky River. Sam’s birth taught her that, to truly be free, to know and to trust herself, is to know how to manage her energetic state and create the energy that she wanted within herself and project that out in to the world. The message she wishes to share with women is that having a powerful birth does not mean having no support. You can totally be in your power while still choosing to be supported by amazing women, who trust and have your back.

Sam is a doula who serves the central Kentucky region (Lexington, Louisville, and Berea), and offers 1-2 birth clients a month, as well as virtual doula support for preconception, miscarriage/loss, and postpartum. To find out more about Sam’s offerings, please visit her website, The Red Thread , or follow her on Instagram at @wildyogimama and @theredthread_ky.
