About this podcast
Our mission is to share diverse birth stories from across Switzerland in a way that empowers the storyteller.
We aim to create a supportive space where each person is in control of their own narrative. By recording and sharing birth stories in Switzerland, we hope to inspire those planning their own birth, offer insights for birth workers, or allow listeners to reflect on their own birth experiences. Tune in wherever you get your podcasts to hear real, personal, raw birth stories.
