In this episode of The Birth Uprising Podcast, we sit down with the incredible Joy Horner, a birth keeper with years of experience as a registered midwife. Joy shares her expert insights into the baby’s experience during labour and birth and explores how these moments can leave a lasting impact on their physical and emotional wellbeing.

We discuss the powerful connection between the birthing person and their baby, how the birth journey can shape a child’s sense of safety, and why understanding a baby’s perspective can transform your approach to birth and parenting. Whether you’re preparing for your baby’s arrival, supporting someone through pregnancy, or just fascinated by the process of hypnobirthing and gentle parenting, this episode is packed with wisdom and practical insights.

Tune in for thought-provoking discussions on natural birth, positive birth experiences, and how the decisions we make during labour affect both parent and baby long after the birth.

🎧 Listen now—because birth isn’t just a moment; it’s the start of a lifetime.
