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. You can choose how you take part — either a recorded online Zoom interview or a more informal conversation, depending on what feels right for 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 emerge from birth feeling capable, strong and positive about their experience.
