In this episode, I share my personal experience and insights on labor pain, and how we can reframe it in a way that’s empowering rather than frightening.

Key takeaways:
1️⃣ Why I still use the word “pain”: Unlike traditional hypnobirthing courses, I find it helpful to acknowledge the sensation. I wasn’t fully prepared in my own birth, and understanding this made a huge difference.
2️⃣ Pain as progress – Athletes experience and even embrace pain because it signals growth and strength. Labor pain works in the same way: it’s your body doing exactly what it needs to do.
3️⃣ Turn the dial – You can learn to reframe and control the intensity of sensations, like adjusting a dial, so labor feels more manageable and empowering.

If you’re preparing for birth or supporting someone who is, this episode will give you practical tips, mindset shifts, and real-life perspectives on how to move through labor with confidence.

Thanks so much for listening 💛
