Send us Fan MailIn this episode, I'm joined by Jasmine and Dominic, who share the incredible story of their daughter's birth—a story that stopped me in my tracks the first time I heard it, and I know it will do the same for you.Jasmine and Dominic weren't expecting to be pregnant, but they welcomed the surprise with open arms and leaned hard into spiritual preparation from the very start. What began as a fairly typical labor at 36 weeks took a dramatic turn when hospital staff didn't respond in time—and Dominic ended up delivering their baby girl himself.
