In this episode, I’m joined by Lainey Stancil, founder of the Peach State Birth Coalition, a Georgia-based nonprofit focused on maternal health education, community support, and birth freedom.
Lainey shares the story of how her own birth experience completely changed the direction of her life. After feeling dismissed by a provider during pregnancy, she switched to midwifery care and planned a home birth...an experience that ultimately led her to start a nonprofit advocating for maternal health education and midwife access across Georgia.
We talk about:
• The moment Lainey realized her provider wasn’t listening
• How midwifery care changed her experience of pregnancy and birth
• The difference between hospital-based midwives and direct-entry midwives
• Why midwife licensure matters for access to care in Georgia
• The connection between surrender, trust, and physiological birth
• How one mom’s birth grew into a statewide birth nonprofit organization
Lainey also shares the story of her water birth and the mindset that helped her navigate labor with confidence and peace.
Whether you are exploring home birth, curious about midwifery care, or passionate about improving maternal health in your community, this conversation offers an encouraging look at how one experience can grow into something much bigger.
Lainey is also hosting the Peach State Birth Expo, a family-friendly event connecting expecting families with birth professionals and maternal health resources. Tickets and vendor information can be found through the Peach State Birth Coalition website.
