Today on Girly Pop Society, I had the absolute honor of sitting down with my mentor and dear friend, Trisha Wimbs.

Trisha shares her incredible journey of motherhood—five births spanning loss, stillbirth, hydrops, unmedicated and medicated deliveries, and finally, a beautiful birth center birth. Through every high and low, she followed her intuition, trusted in God, and allowed her story to unfold with grace and resilience.

But Trisha’s impact goes beyond motherhood. From a young age, she carried a deep desire to serve people and support their health. Today, she is a badass entrepreneur and founder of three wildly successful businesses—including the California Birth Center, the only free-standing birth center in the Sacramento and Placer area.

She is a fierce believer, a force to be reckoned with, and one of the most inspiring women I know. This conversation is rich with raw honesty, deep faith, and practical wisdom for mothers, entrepreneurs, and anyone navigating life’s ups and downs.

Today we sit down with Maddie, a 26-year-old wife, mama of 2, and talented birth and postpartum doula.

From the time she was little, Maddie was baby crazy - playing “mommy,” dreaming of her future kids, and even starting her own babysitting company, The Happy Nanny, at just 18. Specializing in overnights, multiples, and sleep training, she built a reputation early on for being wise beyond her years when it came to babies.

By 20, Maddie became a doula and officially began supporting families through birth in 2021. That same year, she and her high school sweetheart, Mason, were already building a life together—first with golden retrievers, then with the family Maddie always dreamed of.

At just 22, Maddie was pregnant with her first baby, Taytum, on the very first try. The surprise was how quickly it happened, but the dream of becoming a mother was everything she ever wanted. By 25, Maddie was holding her second baby in her arms after experiencing two powerful, unmedicated hospital births that shaped the way she supports families today.

This episode is a heart-filled journey through:
✨ Growing up with a passion for babies and turning it into a calling
✨ Building a business as a teen entrepreneur
✨ Navigating young motherhood and being pregnant at 22
✨ Experiencing two unmedicated hospital births
✨ How becoming a doula transformed her view of birth and postpartum
✨ Creating a dream life through hard work, dedication, and love

Maddie’s story is proof that when you follow your passion and stay true to your heart, the life you dreamed of can become your reality.

This week on Girly Pop Birth Talks, we’re joined by the beautiful and gifted Kelsey White - wife, mother of two, and an accomplished filmmaker + photographer capturing the raw beauty of birth and motherhood.

Kelsey opens up about the doubts she once carried even questioning if she wanted to become a mom. But as her journey unfolded, she embraced her body, leaned into trust, and gracefully birthed her two boys.

Her story is one of courage, surrender, and love a reminder that motherhood is not one-size-fits-all, and that even deep doubts can transform into profound devotion.
