June 2, 2015 Cat Sims

First up in our WHO IS // feature is the wonderful Suzy Ashworth. Suzy Ashworth is founder of Suzy Ashworth Pregnancy Coach & Business Mentor and one half of the awesome Calm Birth School along with the other coolest hypnobirther in town Hollie de Cruz a.k.a. Momma Lightyear.

Suzy is a momma to Caesar and Coco and step-momma to Thomas. Based in London Town, she's embarking on a mission to show every woman that, while it's not possible to make every birth perfect, it is possible to make every birth positive...with none of the 'vagina whispering' or hippy shit. Both Suzy and Hollie are also hosting Not Another Coffee Morning with Not So Smug Now on June 22nd.

WHAT IS // THE CALM BIRTH SCHOOL:

The world's first video-based hypnobirthing program for mums-to-be who would be totally devastated by the world-wide Prosecco shortage if they weren’t pregnant.

HOW DID // THE CALM BIRTH SCHOOL COME TO BE?

The Calm Birth School was born over coffee at soft play. I knew there was a gap in the market for a hypnobirthing program that didn’t take itself so seriously; one that felt cool, modern and accessible. I had lots of ideas bubbling around and Hollie gave me a call one day and as soon as I saw her name flash up on my phone I just knew she would make an amazing partner. She immediately brought an even more fresh and different perspective and the rest, as they say, is history.

BEST THING // ABOUT BEING THE CALM BIRTH SCHOOL?

Working with women from all over the world. The Calm Birth School is on six continents! And when you get to read the positive birth experiences from women who had natural, caesarean and assisted births all talking about how empowered they have felt - it is mind blowing!
