First and foremost, Stephanie Thompson is an awesome and brave mumma (and wife). Her long journey to becoming a mum is her greatest achievement. Her ‘never-die’ attitude and resilience to adversity was just not going to let cancer or birth trauma stop her from trying to be the ‘best’ mum she can be. With over 15 years’ experience working as an educator and leader, she knows how important advocacy is for making real change. After completing her degree in education, she worked as a critical responder in Child Protection for a few years before heading into the classrooms of public schools across Sydney for the next decade. Prior to the birth of her babies, she was an education consultant for some of the top private schools across the eastern states of Australia, while also running a small tea business and competing in triathlons. Busy is what she does best. Stephanie lives with her loving husband, two little people and two fat cats on the south coast of New South Wales. She isn’t able to be a teacher, a triathlete or tea business owner anymore. The trauma from giving birth has left her body broken. But, of course, that is not the end of the story. After looking in all the wrong places for her resolve, she discovered writing. Writing is now how she is helping to make way for change in this childbirth space. Stephanie created the ‘Bravemumma’ community and is working hard to advocate for the sisterhood to band together and support one another in what is already a difficult time. Her main aim is to ensure women can feel empowered to make informed decisions about their birth choices – and beyond into motherhood. When she manages to find a spare 32 minutes, she enjoys watching The Letdown, while folding the Mt Washmore of baby clothes with a cup of tea.

The support group on facebok called "Tips & Tricks for Living with POP".

After experiencing postnatal depression, anxiety and insomnia 6 months after her first baby was born, Regan has utilised her experience and qualifications as a yoga teacher, exercise physiologist, wellness coach and mother with, and now recovered from, PND/A to help other women alleviate anxiety, turn ‘can’t cope’ into contentment, be more present, be able to ‘breathe’ and stream self care into their day, without adding more to the already full plate.  Regan holds sacred space for each woman she works with to get out of her head and into her body, speak her intimate truth, and be guided to the answers within her internal wisdom. She uses an intuitive blend of yoga, meditation, breath work, instinctual movement and coaching specific to the woman in front of her to re-weave the tapestry of her life from the inside out.
