Welcome back to the Maternal Journal podcast - a deep dive into the power of journaling and creativity to support mental health and wellbeing through pregnancy, birth and parenting. 

This week, host Laura Godfrey-Isaacs chats to writer and historian Isabel Davis and artist/illustrator Anna Burel about their book, ‘Conceiving Histories’ which is illustrated by Anna and inspired by Isabel’s own experiences. The book brings together history, personal memoir and illustration to investigate the culturally hidden experience of trying to conceive - looking at myth, fantasy, science and pseudo-science to explore the (un)reproductive body in pursuit of a viable pregnancy.
