About this listen

To anyone out there who thinks you might want to have kids one day but worry how you might do it whilst successfully running and growing your own business — this episode is for you. No one is saying that it is easy, but Izzi’s story demonstrates that it is possible to have a really positive pregnancy and birth experience whilst juggling the demands of running a business.

We talk about:

  • fertility worries and polycystic ovaries
  • traveling the world for work until late in pregnancy
  • staying active as a way to feel strong physically and mentally
  • getting back from a traditional medical ward to the birthing pool
  • the power of the midwife in shaping your birth experience
  • the difference in culture between a labour ward and birthing centre
  • an almost silent and peaceful birthing pool experience
  • a stressful post birth bleed, placenta delivery and stitching up
  • the first night alone with baby
  • how to share responsibilities when breast feeding
  • the process of bonding with baby
