Have you ever felt like birth is something that “just happens to you”? That decisions about your body and baby are made without your full understanding or involvement?
In this episodeb we challenge the common belief that birth is entirely in the hands of the medical team. Birth is not just a physical process—it’s a collaborative journey where you, the birthing individual, hold the power to make informed decisions.

- Why knowledge is the foundation of empowerment in birth.
- The importance of understanding your options, including common interventions.
- How to create a flexible birth plan that aligns with your values.
