In this episode, we’re debriefing our recent Skills Workshop — It was everything birth education should be.

We’re talking about:

• Why we believe in failing fast to fail forward
• The “ahh” moments when the pelvis finally clicks
• The creative simulators we built to actually understand physiology
• Trauma responses and how embodied practice changes everything
• Why how you practice is how you show up

At HJ, we don’t just teach information.
We train skillsets.

Because reading about birth is not the same as holding birth.

Social media has created a generation of loud birth voices — but personality is not the same thing as embodied presence. Posting infographics doesn’t make you a birth keeper. Memorizing stats doesn’t make you safe in the room.

Being a birth servant requires:

– Hands-on anatomical understanding
– Nervous system regulation
– The ability to read a room
– Trauma-informed awareness
– Humility
– Real practice
– Real feedback
– Real people

At our workshop, we practiced how we intend to show up.
We spoke to the models and dolls the way we speak to women and babies.
