In this ep:

In a world where the c-section rate is increasing more than ever, I find lots of women are in search of a positive VBAC or sometimes even VBA2C story. Navigating the NHS when seeking this type of birth can be fraught with red tape and so working with Jordan and seeing the commitment she put into stacking the odds in her favour was awe-inspiring. 

I'm so grateful to Jordan for sharing her story - from sharing the work she did to work through trauma, to connecting with her instincts, to leveraging the support around her. If you are expecting, even if not planning a VBAC, this is a must-listen. Jordan's joy and connectedness to her body and her baby makes this birth story a must-listen! 

As always, thank you to Jordan and the other women who come forward to share their birth stories. You're changing the course of herstory by making these powerful experiences for all to hear.
