As a child of the 60s and 70s growing up in NZ, I had not realised how much my culture, my reading and my sisters’ expectations, experiences and stories had influenced my own birthing experiences.
What an eye-opener Birth Goddess has been!
I was shocked at how disempowered many women now feel when it comes to the most powerful and wondrous experience of their lives.
Realising how our culture in Australia isolates so many women from their bodies and each other makes me so grateful for Katrina’s book.
Women naturally tell stories. The case studies, inspiring quotes and bite-sized bits of wisdom and advice given in Birth Goddess are a wonderful way to identify with and learn from my fellow goddesses’ experiences.
This book is an inspirational and positive antidote to all the horror ‘how to’ childbirth manuals out there. Perfect for today’s data-rich and wisdom-poor world.” ~Iris Lauchland
