"In birth, I should also trust myself more than I would trust the doctors or anybody else." —Augusta Sofija Lagauske

What if birth could be powerful, calm, and even ecstatic—no matter what you’ve heard? If you’re tired of fear-based stories and want to believe in your body’s strength, this episode is for you. It’s time to rethink what’s possible in the hospital.

Augusta Sofija Lagauske, a Lithuanian jeweler, shares how a tough pregnancy and a sea of doubts led her to trust her intuition and prepare for an empowering hospital birth. Her story isn’t just about luck—it’s about mindset, support, and reclaiming your experience. Now, Augusta is on a mission to help others find confidence and pleasure in birth, no matter their circumstances.

Hit play to hear Augusta’s honest journey, from bed rest to a fast, empowering water birth, and learn how she used relaxation, the Bradley Method, and self-trust to transform her experience. You’ll get real talk on overcoming fear, building a support team, and practical tips for making birth your own.
