Transform Your Birth

I have a wonderful conversation with Beth, who is a mother of 3 young children, a pre and post natal Yoga teacher and a doula. Beth shares with us her journey with each birth, and the important internal work that she needed to do, to meet the experience of bringing in each baby. She shares how her perception of the pain created struggle with the first birth, and how she was able to harness her mindset to get through 3 very quick labours. She shares much wisdom about birth, and finishes by identifying how this has influenced her development as a mother, and her need to be at home with her children. A wise and fascinating conversation - enjoy!   Links: Transform Parenting website [https://transformparenting.com.au/] Transform Your Birth Today [https://transformparenting.com.au/transform-your-birth-today/] Better Birth: Mini Gift [https://www.transformparentingvillage.com.au/better-birth] Free resource: Medical Necessity vs Choice [https://www.transformparentingvillage.com.au/medical-necessity-vs-choice]

During birth, decision making matters! It will have the biggest impact on how things unfold and how you experience your labour. Agreeing to continuous monitoring seems like a good idea, in order to protect the well-being of the baby - but is it really?  In this episode we talk to a former Obstetrician Kirsten Small, who completed her PHD on the evidence of continuous monitoring. What she discovered is surprising and well worth a listen. This conversation blew my mind.

In the podcast this week, we hear from Steph and Steve sharing their roller-coaster ride in getting their baby here safely. This story could be easily seen as overwhelming and traumatic and yet there is something special about these two, who were able to navigate every twist and turn. Tune into their story and see if you can pick up how they resourced themselves and supported each other in advocating, making decisions, and rolling with the changes. I was in awe at their resilience and capacity, and you will be too. Enjoy!

Today' s episode starts with a powerful heartfelt poem I received of a birth that did not go to plan, from one of my mothers. It brought me to tears, and yet it was written with this undercurrent of absolute power and transformation. I wanted to bring it to you today, and thankfully the author is with us today, sharing her powerful story of when things don't go to plan. Her birth had all the ingredients of a traumatic birth and yet it wasn't traumatic, she calls it transformational. This conversation identifies important elements that help us to get through birth under all circumstances.  We even discuss the powerful and positive impact it has had on her life as a new parent.This is an episode you will not forget.

In this week’s episode I speak to Bianca about her journey through 4 births, the final one resulting in twins. Each experience brings her closer to trusting herself and her decision making. We discuss how women can lean into their intuitive nature and trusting the inner sense of what needs to happen, by moving beyond the noise of advice and other people’s opinions. Ultimately this is a story of deep transformation for the mother, which is a path we are all on when it comes to welcoming these children into the world.  Bianca shares such powerful wisdom as a result of her birthing journeys.
