In this episode, we are joined by the brilliant Ellie and Luiza from New Birth Club to dive deep into the powerful and often misunderstood topics of birth trauma and the role of doulas. We explore the impact of trauma on birthing people, how doulas can provide vital support, and why these discussions are so important for changing the culture around birth. If you've ever wondered what pregnant women can do to protect themselves from birth trauma and what doulas are really there for, this episode will shed light on those questions and believe it or not, you might have a few laughs during this episode too as we love to keep it light.

Ellie and Luiza are passionate advocates for birth workers and offer a wealth of knowledge. You can learn more about them and their work at New Birth Club here:
