Send us Fan Mail

In this episode of Faith Over Fear: The Christian Pregnancy & Birth Podcast, I’m joined by my very first guest—Sarah Salain, a registered nurse, Christian holistic health coach, and new mama—who shares her powerful story of waiting, surrender, and God’s faithfulness.

After years of hormonal challenges and praying for a baby, Sarah found herself walking through a long and painful season of infertility. As a health coach supporting other women through fertility struggles, her own waiting felt especially heavy—until God moved in a way only He could.

In this deeply honest and hope-filled conversation, Sarah shares:

🌱 What it was like to walk through infertility while helping others heal

 ✝️ How the Lord clearly led her to wait—despite pressure to pursue fertility treatments

🤰 The joy and gratitude she experienced throughout pregnancy

🕯️ Her powerful, faith-centered hospital birth and the moment her life verse came to life

💛 The raw realities of postpartum, surrendering expectations, and finding purpose in motherhood
