Pregnancy & Postnatal Entrepreneurs Collective Podcast
The Pregnancy & Postnatal Entrepreneurs Collective Podcast, in conjunction with Your Birth Biz, is a podcast for birth and postpartum professionals who want to grow sustainable, ethical businesses without burning out or losing themselves along the way.
Hosted by Niamh Cassidy, childbirth educator, IBCLC lactation consultant, and business coach to birth workers, this podcast sits at the intersection of business, birth work, values, and real life.
Niamh started her own perinatal business as a side hustle while working full-time in social care, and knows first-hand how challenging it can be to fill classes, attract clients, and stay confident when everyone else seems to be “doing better”. She’s been through the comparison spiral, the over-consumption of business advice, and the frustration of learning from business spaces that don’t understand the ethics, boundaries, and responsibilities of perinatal work.
Through years of learning, testing, adapting (and unlearning), Niamh has built a fully booked lactation practice and successful education and coaching business — without resorting to fear-based marketing, unethical tactics, or stepping away from client work she loves.
This podcast is a mix of:
- Solo episodes on business, mindset, visibility, boundaries, and sustainability
- Guest conversations with birth workers and women in business
- Panel discussions exploring nuanced topics at the crossover of business and birth work
Expect honest conversations, thoughtful critique of “one-size-fits-all” business advice, and practical insights you can actually apply to your own practice.
If you’re a doula, lactation consultant, antenatal educator, or perinatal professional who wants to grow a business that feels aligned, ethical, and genuinely supportive — you’re in the right place.

Ep. 64 The Parenting Copywriter on Telling Your Story & Selling Without the Ick
Do you ever sit staring at your website or Instagram post wondering how to actually put into words what you do? Or maybe you’ve been told to “share your story” but aren’t sure how to do that without feeling boastful?
In this week’s episode of the Pregnancy & Postnatal Entrepreneurs Collective Podcast, I’m joined by Sarah Davis — The Parenting Copywriter. Sarah is the author of Baby Daze and a former teacher turned copywriter who now helps small business owners whose clients are parents.
Together we chat about:
- What copywriting really is (and why it’s not just for big brands).
- The most common mistakes birthworkers make when writing copy for parents.
- Why your story matters — and how to share it without feeling like you’re bragging.
- How to keep your website and social media clear, concise and parent-friendly.
- Practical tips for writing promotional posts and class descriptions that actually connect.
- The power of passion and personality in your copy (and why that builds trust).
Whether you’re a doula, IBCLC, antenatal educator or baby massage teacher, this episode will give you practical advice to help your words feel natural, authentic, and clear — so parents know exactly how you can support them.
