Birth Stories: Katelyn's Unexpected Journey to Home Birth | Birth, Baby! Ep.163

Katelyn Henry joins Ciarra Morgan to share her unexpected journey to a home birth, detailing the challenges and triumphs she faced along the way. From finding the right support in a doula and midwife to navigating the intensity of labor, she emphasizes the importance of trusting oneself and the process. The discussion also touches on postpartum experiences and the joy of welcoming a new baby into the world, highlighting the emotional and physical transformations that accompany childbirth. Katelyn is a nutrition-based chef, chef teacher, recipe developer, and new mama whose passion for food began with her own healing journey after being diagnosed with celiac disease as a teenager. Learning how to create food that was both deeply nourishing and delicious became the foundation of her life’s work. Over the past 15 years, she’s catered retreats around the world, taught cooking classes, run coaching programs, and developed recipes that bring comfort and vitality to the table. Now, Katelyn shares her kitchen with her daughter, Harmony, where meals are as much about presence and connection as they are about flavor. She writes about food and motherhood on Harmony Eats (her Substack), offers recipes and resources, and shares daily inspiration on Instagram @‌klcuisine.
