'Talking with Fearful Partners' Masterclass
Often the topic of partners who are uncomfortable with birthing outside the hospital is polarised between a woman either sacrificing what she wants, or cutting an unsupportive partner out of her birth. But it doesn’t have to be either of these things. This pre-recorded masterclass will help you understand how to have conversations with fearful partners, and you will discover the tools to facilitate partners to shift from fearful to supportive.

'Navigating vs Using the Maternity System' Masterclass
Through extensive experience accompanying women who birth in the medical system, I’ve come to know that the industrialised maternity system cannot be navigated with any sense of certainty. In this pre-recorded masterclass discover the nuance and confidence to use the hospital system sustainably - for both women and birthworkers.

'Radical Breastfeeding Support' Masterclass
In a world where women face ever increasing hurdles to breastfeeding their babies, often birthworkers contribute to the confusion by trying to fix perceived problems with suggestions that overwhelm rather than help. When women understand that breastfeeding is robust, and they know how breastfeeding works, they are then able to follow their own intuition to make the adjustments they need, if in fact they need anything at all. In this pre-recorded masterclass you’ll be able to check in with your own beliefs about breastfeeding to see if the type of support you are offering is helping or harming.
