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 so blessed to have found your wonderful podcast! Do you still offer how to have an indie birth? I had just realized you posted that podcast in 2013 but it’s worth asking or maybe you can direct me to something similar? Thank you (:
