CREATE A BIRTH YOU LOVE
We show you the path to a positive, safe and powerful birth.
This is for the woman who wants to birth with trust.
Trust in her body. Trust in birth itself. Trust in her partner. Trust in her team.
If you can relate to any of the following, you are in the right place:
"So many people say labor is the greatest pain a woman will ever know. But deep down, I wonder if there’s another way. I want to embrace birth as something normal and instinctive, yet it feels unfamiliar. How do I give birth peacefully? How can I work through contractions? How do I set down my fear?"

Hi, I am Suzzie.
I am a Birth Arts International Certified Doula who has attended over 200 births and spent over 4,000 hours by the side of laboring mothers. My mission is to help mothers create beautiful, and aligned beginnings.
I know giving birth as a modern mom can feel overwhelming. If women have given birth since the beginning of humanity, how is it that women today are 2.5 more likely to die in childbirth than their own mothers and 500x more likely to have a C-section than their grandmothers?
The truth is, women haven’t changed. But systems and structures have. Which is why it’s time to restore the lost knowledge. The knowledge of safe, simple and straightforward birth - achieved through nourishment, holistic education and shared decision making between mothers and their care providers.
It’s time for you to have a say in your birth, which means you need to know what makes birth work.
I believe every mother is capable of preparing for birth in a way that unlocks the secrets of a healthy, peaceful, straightforward experience.
After all, giving birth is a monumental act of love and one of the most transformative experiences in a woman’s life.
Let’s get you ready for it.

Take my hand and i will show you the way
to your peaceful and empowered birth
This is what you gain when you take this course
What You Gain
Pain management skills
Movement, mindset, and comfort techniques help you work with your body rather than against it. With these tools, many mothers find they are better able to cope with labor sensations and remain calm, focused, and present as they give birth. Research shows that parents who take childbirth education classes are over 60% less likely to require an epidural because you have the tools you need for labor.
What You Gain
Skills to care for your body
Only 3% of OBGYNS report taking more than 2 hours of nutritional training in their entire education. Yet, food forms you and your baby and shapes your pregnancy, birth and postpartum. Learn how to care for yourself with pregnancy focused nutrition + movement. We teach what most prenatal care overlooks, giving you the tools to support a healthier, more grounded pregnancy from the inside out.
What You Gain
Partnership
Nobody was built to birth alone. You deserve a team that centers you, cares for you and helps you bring your vision to life. This course will equip birth partners to anticipate your needs, as well as help you build a relationship built on trust with your provider. To us that means a relationship built on authenticity, empathy, logic + follow through. You are doing a great work and deserve backup.
What You Keep
Your Vision
We are one of the rare childbirth courses that can say without a doubt, our moms are successful with natural, pain medication free labor.
However, we also have moms who want and use epidurals. When it comes to skills, you will be equipped with the tools and strategies you need with or with or without an epidural, all while being safely in a judgement free environment.
What You Keep
Your Time
Each module is broken into bite sized pieces to help you get exactly what you need without wasting your time.
So much more than what you get from a book, each module is accompanied with exercises and resources to help you take what you learn and easily put it into action. See our sneak peek for how we do this so well.
What You Keep
Your Peace
Studies show up to 45% of mothers leave birth with trauma that effects their life going forwards.
Well-designed childbirth education helps quiet fear before labor and builds self-trust, both of which are associated with fewer symptoms of birth-related PTSD. That in turn leads to greater success with breastfeeding and deeper bonds with both baby and partners after birth.
What moms are loving about this course
If she can do it - so can you!
"Thank you so much for Convincing me that my body was built to do this 🥰🙏"
I had no pain medication throughout my labour. Suzzie explained so well that my body is capable of doing it without the need of any pain medication because it already has it all installed. This and the breathing. So amazing!!
- Zlata, @beach_yoga_emotion
"You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop and look fear in the face."

The Syllabus
Welcome to birth. You are built to give birth and this week will prove it to you. You will learn about the undeniable power of the woman's body to create a baby and birth the baby it builds. Plus, we will take a deep dive into why some births are more painful for others. Uncover the number one predictor of pain and how you can literally rewire your brain for a less painful birth. Discover how to unlock the hormones your body produces which help provide you pain relief and support through the birth process.
What you eat literally shapes your body and your baby. Did you know that nutritional counseling has been shown to reduce real medical complications in labor? And yet, few women are given education, support and encouragement in the standard prenatal care. That changes here. Learn exactly how to use food to be proactive about prevention and nourish yourself and your baby.
Learn how baby positioning and movement come together to make very long or much shorter births. Learn 3 simple routines for a strong pelvic floor, open hips and a strong core. Discover simple shifts you can make in your day to day life to encourage your baby to settle into an ideal position for labor.
We start this module with an overview of how labor changes, builds and flows from start to finish. Then, we take a deep dive into early labor. What do contractions feel like? What pain management strategies work best now? How can your partner support you? When do you go to the hospital or call your midwife to join you at home? Everything you need to know, plus handouts, easy to follow guides and support for both you and your partner.
Active labor is the real work of labor, the intensity is stronger and pace quicker. Learn how to use your breath, movement and mind to work through contractions. Your partner will discover how anticipate the needs you might need during this part of labor for nourishment, presence and counter pressure. In this section you will find the strategies that work for getting through labor.
For those wanting an epidural, you will also discover which positions, movements and nourishment options are still available to you and how they help keep you labor on track when the epidural keeps you in bed for the rest of labor.
Whether you’re planning a natural birth or using an epidural, you’ll learn techniques to reduce tearing, stay grounded instead of panicking, and nurture a deep, immediate bond with your baby from the very first moments. Yes, we do have two seperate paths for epidural and natural as the most effective strategies are quit different!
Your baby is here - now what? This section teaches you the basics of feeding your baby and nurturing them the first weeks home. It also helps your partner know how to take care of you, the mother, as you return home as well.
We are repeatedly told that this is one of the most helpful parts of this class. If you are trying to find both sides of the story when it comes to epidurals, water birth, inductions, and how to tie everything you've learned into a comprehensive but simple care plan for your team you will love this section. These deep dives on the benefits and risks of some of the biggest choices you make in labor help you make choices that serve you, without adding fear. You will also learn how to ask questions and validate the necessity of interventions and any detours from your initial birth plan.
Taking the She Births Bravely Birth Course is like having all of these in one.

Professionally developed meditation tracks
Meditation and hypnosis are powerful tools for reducing pain and clearing fear during labor by tapping into the mind-body connection. Through focused breathing, visualization, and deep relaxation techniques, meditation helps release tension and quiet the mind, allowing the body to work more efficiently during contractions. Hypnosis builds on this by reprogramming the subconscious mind to replace fear-based thoughts about labor with positive and empowering beliefs. When fear is reduced, the body produces fewer stress hormones, such as adrenaline, and more feel-good hormones, like oxytocin and endorphins, which naturally alleviate pain. Together, these practices create a calm, confident mindset that supports a smoother, more comfortable labor experience.
- Less pain: reduce pain during labor
- Clear fear: let go of stories about birth that keep you trapped in negative cycles of pain and fear
- Build confidence: Consistent practice, positive mindset, overcoming challenges, and celebrating results so you are ready to feel the joy of meeting your baby.

STILL GOT QUESTIONS? WE GOT YOU!
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you tell me about the structure of the class?
Yes, the class is broken into 8 modules, each of which has about an hours worth of content. Most modules have about 4 or 5 short videos that are about 10-15 minutes each so you can learn in easy to absorb bite sized snacks. Many couples will tackle a module a week, watching one short video after dinner, or independently watch on a lunch break and discuss together later. Others will binge watch the entire class on a weekend, if last minute prep needs to get done.
How long will I have access to the resources in the class?
You have lifetime access to the course and one years access to the community tool like monthly mama circles, our private community and our secret giveaways. If you have another baby and need to come back for a refresher, you can do so at any time.
Will this work for me if I want to have a completely natural birth with no interventions?
Absolutely yes! You will learn exactly how to handle each stage of labor with confidence and ease. Don't worry, you will be breathing through contractions with confidence! Embracing the power of pushing. And be overwhelmed with joy and you bring your baby to your chest and meet them in a rush of love and releif.
What if I want an epidural?
You'll find separate strategies for how to simplify labor, prevent tearing and avoid common complications when you have an epidural. With a few simple adjustments and a bit of knowledge, you can almost certainly avoid a cascade of interventions.
Does insurance cover this birth class ?
The insurance CPT code for childbirth classes is: S9436. You may also need this: Diagnosis code Z32.2, which is for childbirth education. Simply submit your receipt with these codes if your insurance covers classes. Whether or not your insurance covers a childbirth class depends on your insurance. Many do.
Can I use an HSA/FSA card ?
Yes! Absolutely. We are already approved to accept HSA + FSA cards. If you have one, use it!
How long does this class take to finish?
There are 8 modules that are about 60 - 90 minutes each. Each module is broken into several shorter bite sized videos. You can binge watch in a weekend, watch a section a week, or since most modules are broken into smaller segments, make a ritual of watching a video an evening at dinner.
Why should I take a birth class?
Not only do moms who take childbirth classes have more confidence and excitement for their baby's birth day, but they also have better overall experiences. Moms who take childbirth classes are less likely to have a surgical birth, have fewer inductions, fewer interventions, and report stronger relationships after giving birth.
What if I am giving birth at home?
Most of our moms are giving birth in the hospital setting, however, we have had many many many home birth mothers take our course and say it prepared them well for the journey through birth at home.
Should my partner take the class with me?
Yes, we highly encourage you to take the class with the person who will support you through labor. If that person is your spouse, a best friend, a family member, they need to know the birth process as well as you, as you will be in this together.
What if I am planning to freebirth?
While we do support mothers giving birth at home, we do not recommend this class for mothers who are planning to freebirth, or give birth without a medical provider. While most births are safe and go as planned, especially with proper preparation, there are no guarantees in life. This course will not teach you how to handle emergencies on your own such as treating a hemorrhage or fixing a retained placenta. We highly recommend all mothers birth with the presence of a licened midwife or OBGYN.
Do you have a guarantee?
Yes, if you change your mind any time in the first 30 days, we are happy to offer you a full refund.
We Believe In You
The Only Birth Course With A Vaginal Birth Guarantee.
We fully recognize that sometimes a surgical birth is the best option. That said, most of the moms we work with are hoping to have a successful vaginal birth. We think you should have access to the best tools to help you accomplish that goal with no risk.
Here's our guarantee - if you finish our course and still have a surgical birth for any reason, we will fully refund you no questions asked.
Why are we so confident a birth course will improve your birth outcomes?
Research published in the International Journal Of Obstetrics And Gynecology showed that 80% of moms who completed a birth course went on to have a vaginal birth. That was only true for 58% of moms who did not take a birth course.
When it comes to your birth, education creates possibility.
