The Ripple Effect: Why Your Birthwork Business Could Change the World

This episode is a little different.Niamh gets personal.. sharing stories not just from her early career in youth justice and youth homelessness in Dublin, but her own pregnancy journey and the loss of her friends because of it. All of this so she can share what she's learned across decades of working with families in crisis and families who were simply left without enough support.And she connects all of it to one big idea: supporting families through pregnancy, birth and the postpartum period might be one of the most powerful things we can do to change the world.In this episode Niamh talks about:What her years working with young men in homelessness taught her about unsupported familiesWhy the modern village has scattered, and what that means for new parentsMaslow's hierarchy of needs and why so many new parents never get to flourishA real client story that shows exactly what's at stake when a birthworker shows upWhy so many birthworkers are invisible, and the real cost of that invisibilityWhy charging your worth isn't about money, it's about sustainability and impactWhy you are part of the solution to everything that's broken and why the world needs you to keep going This one is worth sharing with every birthworker you know.Brilliant at the work.
