Ash’s opening line to me was that she loves babies, and by the end of our conversation.
together, I had no doubt about that. Ash lives with her husband and high school sweetheart in (as she described it) sunny gunny Gunnedah NSW, together they have three beautiful babies.
Ash has had three unique and beautiful births, Ash story includes a positive induction, and GP shared care in a rural public setting. Ash notes that while it took her and husband a while to achieve their dream of a baby, once pregnant it was a fantastic ride. Ash describes the process of birthing Elouise as a dream and a very positive experience. Her doctor noted it was textbook. What followed was a miscarriage, and then a lot of changes on the maternity care front in her hometown which resulted in less options for her, which lead Ash with the question what happens when birth occurs outside of the normal 9 to 5pm workday?
A teacher by trade, and now also a sleep consultant, Ash was motivated to share her story to discuss particularly postpartum support. Ash is so candid with our listeners; she talks us through the awakening that her second born brought her literally and figuratively. Describing her first born as a unicorn, she was not quite prepared for what her second born was going to dish their family. This started her passion for learning about sleep, trying to hack her own way through and essentially becoming her own creative solution, she now is that for other rural families. Ash not only birthed her son but his sleep needs inspired her to birth TSC The Sleep Coach.
Ash thank you for sharing your story and for the work you do.
