We have begun a nationwide search for stories — your stories. 

 

We’re looking for real, specific examples of what you did in labour or birth that you feel made a difference. It doesn’t matter how your baby was born, or whether you needed extra support. If there was something — a skill, a mindset, a technique — that helped you cope, embrace, or even enjoy the experience, we’d love to hear it. Make your experience a power for good! We are especially seeking stories from women who have used:

 

• Birth Skills by Juju Sundin

 

• Hypnobirthing

 

• Any other mental or physical technique you found exceptionally helpful and would strongly recommend to others.

 

We are running recorded online Zoom interviews lasting up to 60 minutes. You can choose how you would like to take part and whether to have your video on or off — whatever feels right to you.

 

This is a pilot project, and nothing will be shared publicly without your consent.

 

If we discover what we believe exists — powerful common threads that deserve greater public awareness — we will invite participants to be part of creating media and short films that bring these experiences to life.

 

This is a not-for-profit, community-driven project.

 

Your voice could be part of shaping a future where more Australian women, and birthing families, emerge from birth feeling capable, strong and positive about their experience.
