In this episode of Positive Birth Corner, we sit down with Moraa, a Kenyan-born mama living in Philadelphia, who shares her powerful story of pregnancy, preparation, and giving birth in the middle of Hurricane Ida. 🌧️👶🏾

From navigating cultural expectations, to building a supportive care team, to driving through flooded streets while in labor — Moraa's story is as inspiring as it is unforgettable.

You’ll hear about: ✨ Growing up in Nairobi and adjusting to care in the U.S. ✨ Why she took a birth class that completely changed her confidence and advocacy skills. ✨ The process of finding the right doula and switching providers mid-pregnancy. ✨ Laboring through chaos — from flooded roads to triage surprises. ✨ The beauty of trusting her body when it came time to push. ✨ How her postpartum plan gave her the space to heal and bond with her baby.

Maura’s story is a reminder that preparation, advocacy, and support make all the difference. Even in the middle of a storm, a positive birth is possible.
