I am a mental health professional and really enjoyed exploring alternatives to traditional therapies in order to overcome fears. I've done one fear clearing since reading the book and was amazed at the response I got. I can't wait to be able to do more clearings in order to prepare for my upcoming birth.”“Fearless Birthing has been so helpful in learning to confront and clear my fears. Not only that, but it really helped me to pinpoint exactly what those fears were to begin with which I previously couldn’t even figure out. Alexia provides a great deal of helpful information about pregnancy, labor, and childbirth and I loved reading about her personal experiences. I found this book very empowering as I truly believe using the methods in it will help me to make the right decisions about my labor and birth and it has already helped me feel like my body is not only capable of this but made to do this. I plan to continue to refer to this book and to work on fear clearing as I finish out these last few weeks of pregnancy. I am now actually looking forward to going into labor with confidence and much less “head trash”.”

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Alexia is a therapeutic coach and host of the award-nominated and chart-topping Fear Free Childbirth podcast. What began as a maternity leave side project is now an essential destination for women with a fear of birth with thousands of expectant mamas now using Alexia’s site to lose The Fear and prepare for birth. It all started when Alexia experienced her first miscarriage and felt relief; she knew something was amiss. She had tokophobia, the extreme fear of pregnancy and birth, which is pretty terrifying. Alexia came up with a way of clearing her fears using herself as a guinea pig. She managed to cure her tokophobia during her second trimester and went on to have two wonderful, fear-free births. When the word got out about her journey from fearful to fearless, Alexia started being approached by pregnant women asking how she did it. It got to the point where she decided that it would be easier and quicker to write a book than to reply to all the emails. Conscious that the women who emailed her needed answers, she decided to launch the Fear Free Childbirth podcast before the book was finished. What began as a maternity-leave side project is now an essential destination for women with a fear of birth with thousands of expectant mamas now using Alexia’s collection of resources to lose The Fear and prepare for birth. The Fearless Birthing Academy is her signature online programme that teaches women how to prepare for a fearless birth. This is complemented with her fear-clearance meditations which address specific fears and her birth prep site, the Fearless Mama Ship. Early on, Alexia was approached by birth professionals who wanted to learn her fear-clearance technique, so she now also offers Fearless Birthing training to doulas, midwives and therapists. Today, Alexia continues to support expectant parents in helping them to prepare for birth from her home in the middle of England.
