What if your body already knows exactly what to do - and the missing piece is simply learning to trust it?
Georgia is joined by Nadine Richardson - founder of She Births and author of the newly released She Births book - for a conversation that covers birth, perimenopause, body trust, and the profound intelligence of women's bodies across every major life transition.
Nadine has been teaching conscious birth education for over twenty years. The randomised controlled trial on her She Births program found it reduced C-section rates by 50%, epidural usage by 65%, and baby resuscitation by 53%. The science backs what she's always known — that when women are given the right information and guided back to themselves, birth changes entirely.
They get into why fear around birth has risen so dramatically in the last decade and what's driving it, the cascade of intervention that begins the moment fear enters the room, why 70% of birth trauma is preventable and what prevents it, the role of the partner in the birth room and what they actually need to know, the spiritual dimension of birth and how understanding the body's physiology naturally leads women there, what surrender actually looks like in practice and how to prepare for it, how to process a birth that didn't go to plan and find the path back to compassion, and Nadine's single piece of advice to every woman about to give birth.
They also go deep on perimenopause as a rite of passage - what it's really asking of women, why so many are struggling with it, and what it looks like to move through it as a portal into wisdom rather than just a symptom to manage.
This one is for women at every stage - planning to conceive, pregnant, postpartum, navigating the wisdom years, or simply wanting to understand the profound intelligence of the female body more deeply.
