Ep 243//She Lived as a Transgender Man for 14 Years, Faced Cancer, Then Had 3 Homebirths | Redemption Story with Lex Renick13 apr1 u 08 min

In today’s episode of the Peaceful Homebirth Podcast, I’m joined by Lex Rennick for a powerful and deeply redemptive conversation.

Lex shares her journey of living as a transgender man for 14 years, the questions and struggles she faced, and the life-changing moment she encountered Jesus. We talk about identity, healing, and what it looked like for her to step into God’s design for her life.

Her story doesn’t stop there.

Lex was also told she had cancer and might never be able to have children—but the Lord had a different plan. In this episode, she shares how that diagnosis became part of a greater testimony, leading her into marriage, motherhood, and ultimately three beautiful homebirths.

We also dive into:

Her transformation in Christ and how it reshaped her identity

Her experience navigating a cancer diagnosis and fertility fears

Why she chose homebirth and how she prepared

The fears she had to surrender during pregnancy and birth

Her most recent homebirth story

Postpartum, nursing, and healing in her body

Encouragement for women questioning God’s design or feeling afraid of birth
