Season Six - The Reality of Birth Today

Welcome to a brand-new series of The Ultimate Birth Partner Podcast

In this first episode, I am exploring the romanticised idea of birth that we can sometimes hold.

I share

  • Where the romantic image of birth comes from
  • Why relying only on a partner can be overwhelming
  • How the 'bubble' can burst in labour and postpartum
  • Practical preparation tips for birth partners
  • A listener’s question on intimacy vs. support
  • Reflection prompts to help you prepare realistically

Whether you’re planning a freebirth, a homebirth, a midwife-led birth, or a hospital birth, this series will guide you through the truth of birth today — so you can prepare with clarity, confidence, and compassion.
