An essential but undervalued role of the care provider is to listen to the woman’s birth story and support this process. Listening to the birth story is also an opportunity for the care provider to ask the woman questions that reinforce her capability and power. This includes asking her what she learned about herself, where and how she experienced her power and agency, and what messages and themes lie within the story."I've just listened to this episode. Sara Wickham was back-up midwife (host) for the interview so I had the listener experience rather than the host experience. I have followed Mavis' work since I was a student and she really is one of our precious Elders of the birth world. We need to listen to the wisdom of our Elders.
