    5 days after giving birth at home - fashion stylist Justine King joins me to share her gorgeous natural home birth story. Making this empowered choice to birth at home wasn’t by accident - but an instinct that grew following her first lockdown baby - and his restricted birth. Instead this was within her control, within her safe 4 walls and within her capacity as she stretched her inner belief and goddess to meet her baby.Hosted by Sinead O'Moore Get in touch at @stretchmarkspodcast I'd love to hear from you.This episode is kindly supported by Carriwell - available from Cleverclogs.ie
