Birth isn’t just about your uterus working hard—it’s a full-body, whole-mind hormonal event that your body is already wired for. When your hormones are in harmony, labor flows more smoothly, contractions are more effective, and your body’s natural pain relief kicks in. But when they’re out of sync? That’s when we see stalled labors, heightened pain, and unnecessary interventions.

In this episode, I’m breaking down the four key hormones that run the show:
🩷 Oxytocin – The Love Hormone (a.k.a. the MVP of labor progress)
😌 Endorphins – Nature’s Epidural (yes, your body has built-in pain relief!)
⚡ Adrenaline – The Fight-or-Flight Hormone (how to keep it low until you need it)
🤱 Prolactin – The Mothering Hormone (bonding, breastfeeding, and postpartum peace)

You'll learn:
✔️ How to naturally boost oxytocin and endorphins for a smoother labor
✔️ The biggest adrenaline triggers that can stall labor and how to avoid them
✔️ What your birth space needs to support hormonal flow (hospital birth included!)
✔️ Why Pitocin is NOT the same as natural oxytocin (and what that means for your birth)
✔️ How to set yourself up for a peaceful, connected postpartum period

This is a must-know episode if you're planning an unmedicated hospital birth!
