• Lo Mathias - Avoiding birth injury through internal pelvic release

  I have always explored the question - what can I do in my classes to help make birth better for my families. Alas - the intention of this podcast is to help you discover this too. When I learnt about this topic, of internal pelvic release, I knew this could make a big difference to helping women during the pushing phase of birth and protecting against birth injury. I reached out to Lo, and she showed me , complete with props,  how we can help women release certain muscles and ligaments to create a smoother passage for the baby - and hopefully less pressure for the mother. We also discuss in this podcast the importance of post birth healing and recovery - such an important topic. I'm so excited to bring this to you - so dear ones listen on.   Some Links: Fiona Hallinan - The Pelvic Space, Melbourne (she has a practitioner directory on here) www.thepelvicspace.com.au Fundamental Health, Kambah www.fundamentalhealth.com.au Body Ready Method - birth prep, free resources on instagram (so many good ones!) and a course for purchase.  @bodyreadymethod www.bodyreadymethod.com Equilibrio Balance - Rachel Shapiro (one of my teachers) https://www.equilibriobalance.com/   Links: Transform Parenting website Transform Your Birth Today Better Birth: Mini Gift Free resource: Medical Necessity vs Choice

• Molly and Liam - Long early labour, letting go and surrendering, partner advocacy and support

  Molly and Liam experienced labour starting and stopping for over 3 weeks, which they now realise was a powerful lesson in letting go. We discuss how this has served them well for parenting. Molly had moments throughout her labour where she had to harness her mind, and adjust to changing circumstances, learning to take things as they come. They highlight the importance of not getting too fixated on things being a certain way and learning to roll with the changes. We also get to hear Liam's experience of birth and bonding, making this a fabulous episode to learn some powerful birth wisdom.

• Molly - 2 straight forward vaginal births, the role of the subconscious

  Molly was concerned her interview would be boring because nothing went wrong. I reassured her that people need to know that birth can be very straightforward, even a first birth. We can assume that birth is a medical procedure, when in fact it is a state of wellness. Molly shares with us the power of her preparation, the amazing role her partner played and the tools she used to get through the birth. She didn't experience the sensations as pain, but called them tightenings. An inspiring story that can open our minds to possibilities. Absolutely worth a listen.   Links: Transform Parenting website Transform Your Birth Today Better Birth: Mini Gift Free resource: Medical Necessity vs Choice

• Tayla - 2 caesarean births, adapting to the unexpected and the bonding experience

  On the podcast today, I have lovely Tayla, who shares with us her two caesarean births, both unexpected - and both very different. Tayla discusses how she had to adjust to plan B for both births, and what she learnt about herself as a result. She believes women are strong, and we can get through hard things. We also discuss bonding after birth and how the experience is different every time you have a baby. I really appreciated Tayla's openness to share with us her remarkable adjustments to the unexpected. A powerful story.

• Beth - 3 births, pain, preparation and mindset.

  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 Transform Your Birth Today Better Birth: Mini Gift Free resource: Medical Necessity vs Choice
