Sovereignty and Birth with Dr Bronwyn Bancroft

Sovereignty and Birth with Dr Bronwyn Bancroft

Dr Bronwyn Bancroft is a Bundjalung woman and elder, an acclaimed artist and mother to three children, Jack, Ella and Rubyrose.

In this episode, Bronwyn shares her experiences giving birth at home in the 1980’s with her oldest two children, and her third vaginal birth at a birth centre at 42 years.

Bronwyn’s story dives into the way that she found and embodied the strength and courage to birth in the way that was right for her, and speaks to the importance of women reclaiming our sovereignty over our bodies and births for the betterment of society at large.

A powerful storyteller and courageous woman, Bronwyn’s words are medicine to those seeking to find, as Bronwyn puts it, the most courageous person inside ourselves, to help us birth the way we envision it.

Bronwyn has also written and/ or illustrated over 41 children’s books. Those listening in NSW who have given birth recently might recognise Bronwyn’s books ABC and 123 which NSW hospitals give to new mums and bubs to take home. We’re so grateful to Bronwyn for sharing her story, her medicine, and her wisdom with us, and for those of you who are familiar with her art, to hear her powerful words as a sovereign woman who fights and advocates tirelessly for the sovereignty of us all.
