In our interview, Kim Durdin shared her belief that every birth deserves to be honored. To her, birth is more than a medical event — it is a sacred passage that should be respected, supported, and remembered with dignity.

Kim Durdin – Honoring Every Birth

We met with Anja Akhile a doula and midwife-in-training, who spoke about how essential teamwork is in birth. For her, every safe and supported birth depends on people coming together — mothers, families, and care providers — united in trust and compassion.

Anja Akhile– The Power of Teamwork

We spoke with Ashley-Nicole Grosse about her journey with natural birth. She shared how empowering it was — an experience that revealed a strength she didn’t fully recognize until that moment.

Why We Exist

In America, a woman is more likely to die from childbirth than in any other developed nation. Around the world, mothers experience birth through rich traditions — yet far too many face preventable risks and inadequate support.

At Building Better Births, we believe stories can save lives. By amplifying birth experiences, equipping mothers with resources, and mobilizing communities, we are rewriting the maternal health story.
