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.

I’m starting a mini-series within my Taking Back Birth podcast series and it is all about MOTHERING.
**
Mothering is so far reaching; way beyond the birth we generally focus on. Yet, I spend literal HOURS and hours counseling women and walking along side them and it is not lost on me how so much of the prenatal emotional process comes back to our own childhood experiences and our fears/hopes/dreams of taking on the role of MOTHER. I am humbled by the spiritual process many of these women are also on to alter/change the energy of their own ancestral lineage around mothering. I also am dedicated to the big-picture belief that we birth instinctively and “undisturbed” so that we have the greatest access to our wise, mothering center. Mothering is something that has come pretty naturally to me, for whatever reason, although I am sure my pregnancies and births have more than guided the grace I feel.
**
I’ll talk more in this upcoming first episode about my other reasons for offering this (thanks goes to some special first time mamas!) and also my own experiences as I mother 9 beings; ages 17 down to 9 months. I know I have a lot to share, whether it is wisdom, experience but also my challenges trying to do this thing called mothering. I’ve got my first episode set but I’d love to hear your ideas and thoughts and questions so that I can make this an amazing podcast resource
