Maternal Wealth Podcast - Own Your Birth
The Maternal Wealth Podcast creates a collective space for sharing all birth-related stories. I want to acknowledge birth's uniqueness, honor its variations, and remind us of the power we hold in giving birth.
As a Labor and Delivery Nurse, I see the impact of our stories. Let's share those stories with those who come after us to prepare them for what's to come. For those who came before us, allowing them to reminisce and heal as we realize we were not alone in our experiences.

She has been actively involved in starting and improving access to home birth services across the United States, particularly near Hillsdale, Albany, Kingston, and Rhinebeck, New York, plus Northwest Hills and Western Connecticut. She is deeply passionate about increasing access to home birth services for anyone who wants a safe, protected birth experience.
In the episode, Janet speaks about her childhood calling to midwifery and advocacy as an adult. She was one of the first midwives to introduce midwifery care in hospitals throughout New York City.
