This is the cut-to-the-chase birth book with a fresh, modern perspective you've been looking for. Afraid of pain? Needing support? Looking for practical pregnancy, labor and birth tools?

Secretly hoping that if you prepare you might be one of those who experience a painless childbirth? Maybe even an orgasmic birth? Wishing someone could tell you what natural birth is actually like? Searching for community? In Find Your Birth Joy, you'll learn to craft and self-direct a birth experience unique to you, your baby and your specific needs and desires.

With this autonomy, you can come out of birth with both your baby and a sense of your own incredible, exuberant power.

By the end of Find Your Birth Joy you'll know how to set yourself up for the birth of your dreams while making peace with the wondrous unknowns inherent in birthing your baby. Praise for Find Your Birth Joy: "Sarah's book celebrates the extraordinarily powerful force of the female birthing body and introduces this empowering concept with honest reflections, open-heartedness, and a host of spirited messages that can help you build resilience and self-compassion for whatever happens in your own childbirth experience. It's a much-needed manifesto for a new generation of young women who have been misled by over-medicalization and popular media messages that somehow modern females are "too posh to push." It's an important book that will help parents tap into the confidence they need during this transformative time." - Prof. Meg Jordan, PhD, RN, CWP Clinical Medical Anthropologist Chair, California Institute of Integral Studies "What I really appreciate is that Find Your Birth Joy is written by a new mama. She is close to her own birth experience and speaks from an honest and heartfelt place. Empowered by the birth of her daughter, Sarah offers a practical and thoughtful handbook for natural childbirth full of tips, tools and practices to guide pregnant women through the preparation for birth. I absolutely recommend this book for women who are looking for a guide to a more connected, conscious and natural birth." - Jane Austin, childbirth educator, prenatal and postnatal teacher and trainer, and founder, Mama Tree Prenatal Yoga School "Wisdom passed from mother-to-mother is arguably one of the best ways a woman can prepare for childbirth, but sometimes you hear more of the bad than the good. Find Your Birth Joy is a positive and empowering guide to preparing for childbirth that will speak equally to your head and to your heart." Bryn Huntpalmer, founder, The Birth Hour podcast "A powerful and unique guide for women. Highlighting that everyone deserves a joyful birth!" - Maria A. Iorillo, LM, CPM
