Storytelling is an intimate and powerful form of birth education

I’m Sophie, founder and host of Australian Birth Stories, the podcast with over 15 million downloads that’s endorsed by the Australian College of Midwives. I’ve got a Masters in Public Health and a passion for encouraging women to actively prepare for birth and postpartum. Beyond the microphone, I’m a mum to three rambunctious boys who create a lot of joy and mess.
