THE EMPOWERED PREGNANCY
& BIRTH COURSE

The complete guide to a confident pregnancy and an easy, pleasurable birth

We are told birth is painful and hard. But what if birth could actually be quick, gentle, and even pain-free and pleasurable? Birth isn’t something that just “happens to you.” We are not passive passengers, just along for the ride. You are in control in more ways than you realize! Birth is a skill, and you CAN direct the outcome in many ways including in how birth FEELS.

Have you given birth before and you felt disempowered — like you had no influence over the outcome? Maybe you even felt taken advantage of and are holding onto some trauma from a previous birth.

Do you believe birth is inevitably long, excruciatingly hard, and painful?

YOU DESERVE SO MUCH BETTER. You should be fully supported in your divine power throughout your entire pregnancy, birth, and postpartum.

Or is this your first birth and you fear the unknown?

Or maybe you're pumped about your first birth and just want to get the most out of the experience. Maybe you’ve gone your whole life believing birth had to be “this one way” and you’re just now learning that BIRTH CAN BE DIFFERENT.

Let us tell you right now. The power is already within you for an ecstatic birth experience — TO SMILE AND LAUGH DURING LABOR and pull your baby to your chest with utter joy in your full power. You were made for this!

Our culture has lost BIRTHING WISDOM.

Disempowering birth experiences have become the norm due to often unnecessary medical interventions, not trusting women’s bodies, and women’s autonomy being jeopardized.

We love this quote:

“Childbirth should be a natural event that occasionally needs medical help, not a medical event that occasionally happens naturally.”

— Kemi Johnson, Midwife.

Become confident & informed

Change the way you see birth for an empowering and confident birth experience, giving birth where YOU feel safest.

A nourished pregnancy

Include more vibrant whole plant foods into your life for a nourished pregnancy & postpartum and feel your best.

Have the birth of your dreams

Rewire your brain for a pleasurable birth experience. Learn how to have an easier labor guaranteed, and the secrets to avoid tearing.

There are tools that can dramatically influence your birth experience that most people don’t know anything about.

Labor CAN be gentle, ecstatic, and pleasurable.

You can give birth where you feel safest.

You can advocate for yourself to have an empowered birth no matter the birth setting that you choose.

At The Empowered Pregnancy and Birth course, we are in the business of a complete unraveling. A total rewiring. So that we can give birth and actually enjoy it!

This goes beyond hypnobirthing. 

Rewire your brain for a pleasurable birth

So what does that mean?

“rewire your brain”

Your body can only do what the brain tells it to. You may have already changed your opinion about birth — that it is normal and beautiful instead of a medical emergency. This is a conscious relearning, which is great! But your subconscious mind is what really influences the outcome.

You can say positive affirmations and mantras all day, but if subconsciously you’re still holding onto the stories, images, and beliefs that birth is painful and scary, your body will follow suit.

So how can you change your subconscious?

In this course, we work on rewiring the neural pathways that make up your subconscious belief systems to create a space for you to truly believe that birth is safe, normal, euphoric, and gentle. And when you believe that on a deep, primal level, you can get out of your own way to have the birth of your dreams.

Because you have to believe it and know it in your subconscious mind in order for it to come into reality.

To do all this, we use the Mind Change Method in collaboration with one of our incredible course contributors, Heather McKean.

Don’t just take our word for it…

another course student says…

This course changed everything for me. I had a natural hospital birth and wouldn’t have been as confident and empowered as I was without this course! I feel like I went in blind with a handful of Pinterest posts for my first pregnancy but this course brought out a strength I didn’t know I had in me. 

The mind change portion was a reflective time for me that you have to do slowly because it packs so much but it’s so worth it. I used the breathing techniques and baby was out in three “pushes.” There is so much goodness in these sections. My labor was beautiful, memorable, spiritual and fun. Every mama deserves that.

The course is intentional and touches on the most important parts of pregnancy for the WHOLE woman: mind, body and spirit. My husband, babies and I can’t thank the creators and contributors of this course enough.

Ellen Fisher

A mother of 5, I birthed all of my children in the comfort and safety of my home. I’m thankful for all of my birth experiences, each transformative in their own right, each there to teach me something new, and each humbling me on a whole new level.

My first two labors were empowering and wonderful, but also long and painful.  So when my third birth came around I wanted to do something different. My neighbor at the time, Heather Mckean — a contributor in this course — encouraged me that I could rewire my brain for a shorter labor and more pleasurable birth experience. I was skeptical at first, but I gave it a shot. All it took was one Mind Change session and I got the birth of my dreams! It was a quick, glorious 8 hours of labor and it FELT GOOD! I couldn’t believe it! I was smiling through the surges and literally told my body what to do and when. Then, with my next two births I honed in on even more brain rewiring, and began to see birth as a sensual experience - and boy what a transformation that took place.

I had my easiest births ever and I now describe birth as pleasurable, intense, and ecstatic, and I filled this course with everything I wish I was told before I became pregnant with my first child over a decade ago.

If you’re pregnant, close to giving birth, or planning to get pregnant soon, I’m so excited and happy for you. Birth is life changing and I’m passionate about sharing all that birth can be — gentle, peaceful, euphoric, and even pleasurable.

Hannah McNeely

When I got pregnant with my first son, I knew I wanted to have a natural home birth. The thing is, I also knew so many women try to have a natural birth and but end up with interventions they did not want. The good thing about having an older sister who started having babies almost a decade before me was that I got to see birth as safe, beautiful, normal, and not a medical emergency for low-risk pregnancies. Ellen’s birth stories became my truths for birth. 

The other benefit is that Ellen let me in on everything she learned with each birth so I knew how to prepare for my big day. I didn’t wing it and “prepare for the worst and hope for the best.” I prepared for the best. And that’s what I got. An empowered birth in the comfort and safety of my home.

When I got pregnant the second time, I wanted an even better experience — something pain-free, easier, and much quicker than my first birth. Since we had already created this course, I went through the videos like a normal course student and prepared using the Mind Change Method — that is to say, I rewired my brain and subconscious beliefs. My second birth was quick and the labor was pain-free.

Pregnancy and birth are such a wild ride, and my own experiences truly transformed me into a different creature for the better. Birth felt like passing between two worlds. Both times I emerged on the other side in my full power as a woman and mother. I feel so passionate about helping other women also achieve the birth they desire, in the birth setting they feel safest, because there is nothing like being surrounded by those you trust witnessing you in your full power as you pull your baby up onto your chest.

Change the way you see birth

A complete transformation and unravelling

It became a quiet understanding that I realized during the birth of my third child, but I didn’t quite know how to put it into words until I supported my sister and friend at their own first labors when coaching them through the surges and sensations. 

I realized something pivotal that once harnessed, made my third, fourth, and fifth births QUICK and much EASIER.  It’s something I WISH I was told before labor with my 1st child, or even my 2nd. Everything I read to have a “less painful” and quicker labor was all good and helpful, but it missed the mark on one crucial element to help me and so many others get there. 

In this course we guide you through these pivotal steps to help your baby glide down and out efficiently. You’ll encourage an easier and shorter labor -and the result is EUPHORIC and SENSATIONAL.

This information wasn’t in any of the birth books I read.

“After a "failed" home birth attempt with my first child that ended in hospital and was rather traumatic for me and my husband, I knew I'd have to prepare myself for the home birth of our second baby. The empowered pregnancy and birth course was so so helpful in so many ways! From choosing my birth team (and leaving a rather toxic gyn) to physical and mental preparation - I ended up having the most incredible and healing birth experience! I gave birth to my baby at home - a fast labor, just as I had envisioned. It was super intense but I wouldn't describe it as painful. Despite the prediction of this toxic gynecologist that said I won't be able to birth my baby without medical assistance and she's sure we're going to end up in hospital etc. (There was no reason whatsoever, she just was against home births and was fear mongering) - I birthed my healthy 9lb9oz baby without any interventions - no tears - in the comfort of our home ❤️ Can't wait to do it all over again! 😁”

had a pain free labor for her 4th birth

“Thank you for your wonderful birth & pregnancy course and the incredible work that you put into it. I only purchased it a month before giving birth for my fourth time and it absolutely changed everything for me. I have given birth in a hospital and birth centre, and this was my first home birth. I only wish I had had the course before my first birth. Not that they were bad, but the information in this course made this birth next level!

Having given birth before there was a lot that I had learned on my own and was going to do differently this time anyways, but I know that I would not have had an unmedicated PAIN FREE labour without your course. (My other births were unmedicated but labours were not pain free.) It still blows my mind to this day (4 months later) that I could do that. I am so thankful to module 7 for that. I was feeling so good during each surge, able to talk, feeling pleasure that I didn’t think I was very far along. But I called my midwife to come because I wanted to be checked and I thought if she came my body would have permission to give birth and let go. The amount of intensity I was feeling when she checked me had felt similar to when I was only 2 cm for my second birth so I wasn’t expecting to be far along. She said I was 8 cm! I cried because I was so happy with how GOOD I felt!

I had decided to switch from a birth centre birth to a home birth only a week before purchasing your course, your course made me feel so confident in my decision. It also made me feel really good about having my 5 year old daughter be there as well. I am just forever grateful that we have this shared experience together. 

Since I got the course so late in my pregnancy I didn’t even get to a lot of the other content, but Module 7 + 8 were well worth the purchase. Thank-you for sharing what birth can be. An amazing empowered experience. I too hope to now share with people that birth does not have to surrounded by fear, but by love and excitement.
Thank you.”

JESSICA

I had my first natural birth, with my second child this morning. Ellen and the other people in this course literally made it manifestable. I am speechless thank you ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Thank you from the depths of my soul. You made this soul dream a reality. What giving beautiful divine women you are. Hallelujah! Daisy was born on August 5th, early in the morning. It was a miraculous, beautiful, magical, divine birth. Her sister Lavender is so happy to have her. You truly changed my life.

WE ARE SO EXCITED FOR YOU

FAQ

  • Absolutely! Though Ellen and Hannah both had home births and prefer this birth setting, the course gives equal attention to those wishing to birth in a hospital or birth center.

  • We wish we could! However, birth really is a beautiful thing. Every birth is unique and nothing in childbirth is guaranteed. The point is not to avoid pain, but it is to dig into the deepest parts of you and shine a light on them, and to birth in accordance with your wonderful design. What we can promise is to give you all of the tools you need to have an easier labor and an empowering, pleasurable birth experience. After finishing the course, your whole perspective on birth will change and you will be absolutely pumped to birth your baby. And most importantly, you will be able to enter your birth knowing that you have the power within you to birth confidently because of all the prep work you have done. We also have an entire lesson on when things don’t go as planned and how to stay in love and out of fear.

  • Absolutely! You can digest the most important modules for birth just weeks beforehand and go back to absorb the other content as you are able. Some of the most pivotal things I learned going into my births were just weeks or days before the big event. It’s never too late to empower yourself with more knowledge to prepare for one of the most important days of your life. You got this mama and we’d love to be by your side

  • Absolutely, all are welcome here! Everyone can benefit from including more vibrant whole plant foods into their diets and that is our encouragement. For example, in collaboration with Dr. Gemma Newman, we hone in on key nutrients of focus that apply to all pregnant mamas, regardless of their dietary pattern.

  • Whatever suits you really! But you’ll get the maximum benefit from this course by watching the modules before each distinct experience you are about to go through as you become a mother. We recommend watching the modules ahead of time and then going back for refreshers when needed. For example, watch the postpartum lesson before you give birth so you know how to prepare for a more pleasant postpartum experience.

  • Definitely. This course is not only for first-time mamas. If you had a birth experience that left you feeling less than empowered, in the Mind Change module we walk you through releasing the negative parts of that birth that you are ready to let go of. And then you are guided in all aspects of the course to prepare for a different outcome this time around. Whether your previous birth(s) was very traumatic and you would like a completely different experience or you would merely like a quicker, more pleasurable experience this time, the guidance in this course will help you achieve the birth of your dreams. In fact, this course was born out of all Ellen learned over her five births. Her first two experiences were beautiful home births but not all that she wanted out of her birth experience because they were both long and painful. She then implemented different approaches along with the Mind Change method and was able experience birth in the way that mattered to her — quick, pleasurable, and easy.

  • Pretty much all the information in the course applies to people living all around the world. The only difference may be what kind laws dictate home birthing options and some differences in standard hospital protocols that are mentioned in the course.

  • We are so confident in this course’s quality and effectiveness to help you have an empowered birth that we confidently offer a 15-day money back guarantee. Invest yourself in this and give the Empowered Pregnancy and Birth Course a good, honest try. Please go through modules 7 and 8 in its entirety before assessing whether you desire a refund. If after that you don't think our course will help you have the birth you desire, please let us know why and we will refund you.
