Evony talks to Joy Horner - former registered midwife, now birthkeeper, doulas and pregnancy and postnatal specialist. As the lack of insurance removes choice for independent midwives to practice, along with the ever medicalised model of birth, some midwives are choosing to come off the register and practice in a different way. Joy talks aboout her journey into midwifery, her experience around loss and the decision to step off the register this year.
