Words
Welcome to Season 7 of The Ultimate Birth Partner Podcast.
This season is a little different.
Rather than focusing on one particular aspect of pregnancy, labour or birth in each episode, I’m taking a single word and using it as the starting point for a much bigger conversation.
The words I’ve chosen have come from decades of experience as a doula and antenatal educator, as well as from everything I have learned from the women, partners and families I have supported over the years.
Because sometimes one word can change the way we think about something.
A word can challenge an assumption. It can open up a new perspective. It can give us language for something we have experienced but never quite understood. And sometimes it can make us question something we have simply accepted as normal.
That is what I want Season 7 to do.
These episodes are not about giving you a list of things you should or shouldn’t do. They are about thinking more deeply about birth, about the systems and environments in which birth takes place, and about the experiences of the women and partners at the heart of it.
My hope is that these conversations bring wisdom, encourage curiosity and develop your thinking.
Because preparing for birth is about much more than knowing what happens during labour. It is also about understanding yourself, understanding your choices, recognising what influences the way you experience birth, and thinking carefully about the conditions that can support you.
So, this season, we are going to slow things down.
One word.
One conversation.
And perhaps one new way of thinking about birth.
