Published: Sept. 9, 2018, 7:38 a.m.

In times gone by we used to have a community that supported us through our mothering journey. But somehow over time we\u2019ve lost this connection to people who could support, advise and nourish us.

Though the proverb "It takes a village to raise a child" has become clich\xe9, the impact of our village-less living is having a devastating impact on mothers.

I\u2019m very excited to be speaking with an incredible women who supports women in celebrating and restoring motherhood. \xa0 She\u2019s one of life\u2019s wise and wonderful women who in ancient times would have been a central figure in our communities.\xa0

In this episode I interview Su Barber.\xa0 Su offers pre and post natal support to couples, exploring strategies to cope with birth, dealing with unexpected or desired consequences of the journey and offering support at the birth itself.
