Description

It’s time to reframe how you think about the hospital... In this episode, I break down why seeing the hospital as your friend can actually hold you back - and why thinking of it as your enemy isn’t helpful either. Instead, I want you to walk in seeing the hospital as a tool - something you can use to get the birth experience you want. I’m also sharing the STEER Framework, my 5-step strategy to help you lead the room, manage pushback, and stay in control - without being combative. In this episode: 💖 The belief that kept me passive during my first hospital births 💖 Why the hospital system is designed against physiological birth 💖 The mindset shift that changes everything 💖 How to use the STEER Framework to prep your space and your team 💖 Real scripts and responses for when things get pushy or weird Resources & Links: 🎟 Grab your free ticket to the next Birth Plan Party! (or Join the Waitlist!)🗺 Download the Unmedicated Birth Map (FREE)🎧 Listen to more episodes 📸 Follow me on IG @thebirthprepcoach
