In this episode I’m joined by midwife and mum of four Beth from The Bump to Baby Chapter to talk about one of the most common questions I get asked: how to speed up labour.

We explore what can slow labour down, what can help it progress, baby positioning, biomechanics, oxytocin, cervical dilation and the difference between trying to force labour and creating the right conditions for it to flow.

A really practical and reassuring conversation for anyone preparing for birth.

I’m joined by Catrin Kemp from New Mothers Circle to talk about the power of writing in motherhood and how putting words to your experience can help you process what you’re feeling.

We explore journalling, reflection, identity shifts and why writing can be such a grounding tool during pregnancy, postpartum and early motherhood. This is a gentle, thoughtful conversation for any mother wanting to feel more connected to herself through the changes motherhood brings.

🎙️ This week on the podcast, I speak with Charley about her incredible birth experience—and how she used the Birth Box™ Hypnobirthing course to prepare.It was surreal meeting someone in person who had done Birth Box!We talk about fear, mindset, labour prep, and what really helped on the day.

What role does a birth partner REALLY play during labour?

In this episode, I’m joined by Gordon from MANtenatal to talk about advocacy, oxytocin, men’s mental health and why birth partners can completely change a woman’s birth experience when they feel informed, confident and prepared.

We unpack:
- Why birth isn’t a “spectator sport”
- How birth partners can advocate calmly in labour
- The BRAIN tool for making informed decisions
- Protecting oxytocin during birth
- Practical ways to support women through contractions
- Men’s mental health in the postpartum period
- Why better birth education for dads is SO needed

This is such a powerful conversation and honestly one I’d really recommend listening to WITH your birth partner
