I wanted to share something important with you — especially if you’re currently pregnant, planning a pregnancy, or supporting someone who is. Over the past seven years of Australian Birth Stories, I’ve had the privilege of sitting down with more than 600 women and their families to hear their pregnancy and birth stories. And alongside that, I’ve also birthed my own three boys — each pregnancy, each labour, and each birth teaching me something different about preparation, trust, and the importance of feeling informed and supported. And if there’s one thing I’ve learned — both through my own births and through hundreds of conversations — it’s this: Birth rarely unfolds exactly how we imagine it will. But the women who feel calm, confident and empowered aren’t the ones who had a specific type of birth… They’re the ones who understood their options.They’re the ones who knew how their body worked.They’re the ones who had practical tools, trusted support, and evidence-based education behind them.That’s exactly why I created The Birth Class. I wanted to bring together everything I’ve learned — from my own experiences, from the stories shared on this podcast, and from Australia’s leading midwives, obstetricians, physiotherapists, lactation consultants, and birth educators — into one calm, clear, comprehensive course. Because when you understand birth, fear naturally begins to dissolve. You stop feeling like birth is something happening to you… And instead, you feel like an active participant in the experience. You understand how labour works. You understand your choices. And you trust yourself to navigate whatever unfolds. Since launching The Birth Class, more than 7,000 women and their partners have taken the course. And the feedback I hear again and again is: “I felt calm.” “I felt prepared.” “I felt confident — even when my birth didn’t go to plan.” Because this isn’t about promising a perfect birth. It’s about preparing you for a positive experience — whatever that looks like for you. And for the next few days, all of our online courses are available at 25% off. You can access the sale using the code BIRTH25. If you’ve been thinking about preparing for birth… If you’ve been meaning to enrol… Or if you’ve been listening to these stories and wondering how to prepare yourself… This is a beautiful time to begin. Because birth education doesn’t just change how you give birth. It changes how you feel walking into it. You deserve to feel calm. You deserve to feel informed. You deserve to feel confident in your choices. And most importantly, you deserve to feel supported. You can find all the course details HERE and use the code BIRTH25 to access 25% off.
