In this episode of Moline Method Mic’d, we’re sharing the unexpected journey of our daughter’s birth — from planning a peaceful home birth to a surprise early delivery at the hospital. We open up about what it was like when Kelly’s water broke ahead of schedule, how we adapted in the moment, and the incredible support we received from our doula, midwives, and the strength we found through Jesus.

You’ll hear how we prepared for labor naturally using nutrient-dense foods, functional medicine tools, and mindset work, plus what really helped in the moment — including counter pressure techniques and staying fueled through contractions. Whether you’re planning a natural birth or just curious about how birth can unfold outside of a textbook, this honest conversation is filled with encouragement, insight, and grace for the unexpected.

In our very first episode of Moline Method Mic’d, we’re diving into real life with a baby and real solutions for brain fog. We share the highs and hiccups of our daughter’s first plane ride — including the nerves about being “those parents,” handling mid-air diaper changes, and the surprising moments that made it all worth it.

Then we unpack brain fog — from postpartum hormones to stress and even menopause. Whether you're a new mom, a burnt-out parent, or just feeling foggy, we break down root causes, nutrition tips, supplement support, and simple lifestyle shifts that can help clear your head and boost your energy.

This episode is light, real, and packed with functional medicine insights for parents and anyone juggling stress and brain fog.
