#192 - Our Birth Stories Tell a Story with Sophie Walker - a podcast by Amy Taylor-Kabbaz

Our guest today is quite the Podcast veteran. Sophie Walker is the host of the Australian Birth Stories Podcast, which has just released its 300th episodes.

The journey of pregnancy and birth is an important part of the Matresence picture, and it is vital that we are not telling women that birth looks the same for everybody. Listen as Amy and Sophie discuss:

• How our own birth experiences are closely tied to that of becoming a Mama.
• While birth is only one day, it is a very powerful and important day.
• How we don’t always feel comfortable sharing our birth stories because we don’t want to scare anyone off and/or because we don’t want to boast or celebrate what we have been through in fear of making the person who’s listening feel bad or undermined.
• The leap straight into motherhood that is often hard to see when we are in the pregnant phase and concentrating on birth.

You can find out more about Sophie’s work and Podcast at https://www.australianbirthstories.com/ which includes stories for women across all sorts of experiences. As mentioned in this episode you can also access the walk through heal your birth meditation via the Mama Rising Audiobook. We are here to spread the whispers of Matrescence together.
