GUEST

Sophie Walker

Sophie Walker is the person behind Australian Birth Stories – a podcast which has shared more than 400 birthing journeys and has had more 17 million downloads.

Sophie has a master’s in public health, but it wasn’t until her traumatic birth with her first son, and the physical and emotional trauma that dealt with long after leaving the hospital, that Sophie immersed herself in the world of pregnancy and birthing.

Prepared and informed for her second birth, Sophie had an empowering and positive experience.

Now understanding how fundamentally information could impact the experience of pregnancy and birth, Sophie launched Australian Birth Stories – a platform where parents could readily and easily access a plethora of real-life experiences and information about pregnancy, birth, and post-partum life.

The huge success of the podcast in both the social and medical worlds prompted Sophie to publish The Complete Australian Guide to Pregnancy and Birth in 2023.

On the Australia Birth Stories website, Sophie has added a range of resources and online education programs to ensure that every pregnant woman has the opportunity to make informed decisions about her medical care.
