In this episode, I’m joined by Kenna Gonzales, a homeschool mom of four and passionate VBAC advocate who turned her own C-section recovery into a powerful journey of education, healing, and empowerment. Kenna shares what led her to pursue a VBAC, along with the emotions many moms carry after a surgical birth and the desire for a different experience moving forward.

We talk through common VBAC myths, how to know if you may be a candidate, and the first steps moms can take if they’re feeling both fear and hope. Kenna also shares how mindset, nutrition, movement, education, and choosing a truly supportive provider play a critical role in VBAC preparation. This episode is for any mom who wants clear information, compassionate encouragement, and confidence to advocate for herself as she explores her birth options after a C-section.
