In this episode I speak with Sophie.

Sophie is the Founder of Ethical Clothing label Moonface Clothing. After doing her degree in fashion design at RMIT she graduated feeling disillusioned by the industry’s wasteful and unethical practices and knew that she did not want to participate in contributing to all the harm that was being done. After taking some time off she realised that people were not going to stop wearing clothes anytime soon and so she decided to start a brand that did things better and that could set a new standard for what ethical fashion could mean. Once she decided to start a family she outsourced production so that she could be home with her daughter while still making an income and found her passion lies not only in fashion and sustainability, but also in business and how we can do it better, working smarter, not harder, so that we can still be available and present for our lives and our children.

In this episode I speak to Caley.

Caley grew up in a family of 7 girls with her mum always speaking of birth so beautifully and passionately, no fear around it. She was intrigued and drawn to birth from a young age and has her Mum to thank for this. She was also present at the birth of her youngest sister - born in hospital. All of these experiences shaped her own journey into freebirthing her 2 daughters and the deep passion she has for birth.

Before becoming a Mum, Caley worked 10 years in the human and community services field which was all a big part of her finding herself as a woman and really realising that the 9-5 GO GO GO structure was not supporting her body or cycles!

Now, every day she is consciously creating a life for her girls. It’s not always easy. But she knows who she is, she knows what she wants for them and what she doesn’t.

Motherhood is no easy task, especially when doing it from a deeply conscious space.

But it’s well and truly worth it all.

In this episode I speak with Leah.

Leah is a Mother to her daughter Amara Rose, whose birth brought so much healing and a deep unravelling of all that she knew as she crossed over from maiden to mother.

A planned free birth turned into a hospital birth, and with it so many lessons. A mind bending experience that will forever be a great teacher.

Outside of Motherhood, Leah is a musician, front lady and songwriter of Eora based band Kyoshi. Writing, creating and performing has always been her greatest gift. Using her words and voice to express her experience of the world and touch others.

Leah is also a sound healing facilitator, a huge journey in itself that has invited so much expansion in her self work through her study and practice. Leah has also taught music for over a decade, working predominantly for herself, sharing her joy and passion of music with children, teens and adults.

Navigating motherhood as a single parent and stepping into a new version of herself has been deeply life altering. Experiencing matresence in a society that has lost its reverence to mothers and connection to the feminine is a challenge, to say the least. But we show up every day with presence, compassion and love, and continue to surrender to the beautiful chaos.

I hope you enjoy this episode!

Lizzie is a free-birthing, unschooling Mother to three wild children leading an intuitive and feminine life against the grain in the highlands surrounded by cows.

In this episode she shares the birth of her third baby, a raw and simple birth with only her family present.

We discuss the impact that social media has (the positive and the negative) on how we birth and parent and how even natural tools used in the birth space can become an intervention if not used with intention.

I hope you enjoy this episode.
