Building Birth Confidence
What If This Time Could Be Different?
When you’ve experienced birth trauma, hope can feel risky — even dangerous.
But what if preparing differently this time is the very thing that makes a different experience possible?
In this short, empowering episode, Katie offers a gentle mindset shift to help you explore the possibility of a better birth — and guides you through a short safe place visualisation to help activate calm, hope, and trust in yourself.
✨ What you’ll hear:
- Why your brain tries to predict a repeat of trauma
- How to gently introduce the idea of a new story
- A short visualisation practice to connect with safety and hope
You don’t have to be fearless to hope. You just need a little space to begin.
