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.

Join Margo and this sweet mama as they process her first birth, an induction in the hospital where she felt like she was disrespected and not given space to tune into her intuition. Gestational diabetes and hypertension (sort of) also played into her first story. She is preparing for a home birth this time, and is worried about what it might look like if her midwives risk her out but she wants to stay home. Join this tender, rich conversation that goes beyond the typical conversation around risk and decision making and really digs into the wise woman model of care in real time.

Margo is offering a limited number of free virtual prenatal sessions in exchange for recording them as Well, Actually… episodes. The world needs to know what real prenatal care sounds like! To have your virtual prenatal be featured on this series,
