Lauren shares her contrasting birth experiences with her two boys, Charles and Harvey, whilst navigating the challenges of building two innovative businesses for parents. From her anxiety-filled first pregnancy during COVID to her blissfully calm second experience, Lauren's story highlights the profound difference that continuity of care and mental preparation can make. She opens up about her struggle with postnatal anxiety, the healing power of a positive second birth, and how her experiences as a mother directly inspired her to create BubbaDesk (co-working spaces with childcare) and Wombee (a purpose-built app for mothers).
