Empowered Birth: Tapping into Sports Psychology for the Maternity Journey (Carla Meijen, PhD)

What can we learn from the world of sport psychology that could be applied to the maternity journey? What if a top sport psychologist – and mother – was able to effectively bring the two worlds together in ways that would benefit the mother, child and family? That is exactly the focus of today’s discussion, as chartered sport & exercise psychologist, associate professor and author of the new book Empowered Birth, Dr. Carla Meijen joins us on the latest episode of the Catalyst 360 podcast. Dr. Meijen and I originally met when we presented our research together at an international sports psychology conference years ago and when I saw her new book hit the presses, I knew you’d want to hear from her.
