Cold Coffee, Hot Mess Podcast

With her experience as a doula, prenatal yoga instructor and nutritional coach, she helps mums-to-be with their preparation, relationships and how they want to approach their own personal birthing journey. Olivia unravels exactly what a doula does, how they differ from other pregnancy support and we get labour pains translated into exactly what’s going on with baby. From optimal maternity positions, labor support training, and pregnancy yoga to c-section prevention, post-partum support, and breech birth. Grab a cuppa (or a cocktail) and settle in for an eye-opening discussion.
