Happy 15th anniversary to The Business of Being Born and a pinch me moment as we celebrate with this week's guests, Ricki Lake and Abby Epstein!! This film deeply impacted Teresa and Sarah and set the course for their soul searching birth journeys! We talk about the maternal mortality rate, how we desperately need this film in our lives again and how much home birth, doula and midwifery care has grown since the film’s release in 2008.

These moms will engage in some brilliant interviews with celebrity friends, parenting experts and listeners like you!
