Episode Summary:
In this solo episode, I dive into one of the most common questions I'm asked: Is hypnobirthing enough? If you've completed a course or are thinking about starting one, this episode is essential listening.
I explore what hypnobirthing teaches you, why it's a powerful foundation, but also why it’s just the beginning of truly preparing for a positive birth experience. I unpack how deeper education, regular practice, and understanding the maternity system are key to feeling empowered and supported — especially when birth doesn’t go according to plan.
In this episode, I talk about:
Why hypnobirthing is more than a checklist item
How the maternity system impacts your birth experience
The importance of informed decision-making and knowing your rights
What else you need to do beyond a course to feel truly prepared
The crucial role of your birth partner and how they can confidently advocate for you
Why preparation for the postpartum period matters just as much
Whether you’re planning a home birth, birth centre experience, or hospital delivery, this episode will help you reflect, refocus, and rethink what “being ready” for birth really looks like.
