Melanie is a private midwife, transformative birth warrior, and midwifery academic. She has delivered hundred of babies, recently launched a mentorship program, and has an astonishing passion and understanding about birth; which all come from evidence or women themselves. Melanie is a rare find in that she has not been clouded by the smoke of hospital policy and the cultural stage of a workplace that relies upon managing birth in a systematic way. Melanie knows the truth about birth and about how far the reality of birth is from what we have been taught to believe from societal and cultural norms. Tune in to be awoken.
