Birth is more than just contractions and pushing—

It’s a full-body, whole-person hormonal symphony designed to carry you through labor, help you bond with your baby, and support your postpartum recovery.

But here’s the thing: modern birth settings often disrupt this natural rhythm. And when we don’t understand what’s happening behind the scenes, we miss out on powerful tools that can actually make birth easier and more aligned with our body’s design.

In this episode, we’re breaking down the four major birth hormones—oxytocin, beta-endorphins, catecholamines, and prolactin—and how each one plays a critical role from early labor through the golden hour.

You’ll learn:

✨ What each hormone does during birth

✨ How to optimize them for a more physiologic, undisturbed labor

✨ Why the environment you birth in matters

✨ What simple shifts can help your hormones do their job beautifully

This isn’t just science—it’s your birth blueprint.

Let’s talk about how to work with your body instead of against it, so you can move through labor feeling more connected, more powerful, and more supported by the biology that’s always had your back.

Because your hormones? They’re your built-in birth team.

You just need to know how to let them lead. 💛
