  • A treasure trove

    Birth stories podcasts are not a new phenomenon. Tracey takes this now well-established and profound medium and turns it into something unique: equal parts debrief and instruction, each episode is grounded in the reality of pregnancy and birth. No celebrities, no over-editing, no censorship. Listen to these episodes for an insight into the full spectrum of birthing experience.

  • The podcast that ties women together in birth!

    I had the pleasure of sharing my birth story on episode 6, since then I have listened to others stories and have been so inspired. Each women’s journey through birth is different and yet the common thread that ties them all together is the calm and wise approach that they put forward when facing every aspect of birth. It’s as if Tracey’s teachings are flowing through their veins and it’s almost as if Tracey is with them guiding them each step of the way. I love, love, love these stories and the ... more

  • Incredible - You need to listen to this podcast if you are expecting.

    Tracey is such a wonderful host and this podcast gave me so much knowledge, courage and confidence during my pregnancy and in preparation for my labour. Her kindness and calm nature shines through and it is what ultimately convinced me to book her transform your birth in person course. Absolutely essential listening! Thanks for everything Tracey!

  • The wisdom of birth stories

    This podcast is unique in that Tracey uses her natural ability to guide the storyteller through a process of reflection, learning and insight when sharing their birth story. The stories are raw and demonstrate how much we learn through birth and particularly how this prepares us as parents. There is so much wisdom in these stories!!
