Talk It Through

Talk your birth preferences through instead of filling in a form. It asks the questions, writes up your plan A, B and C, flags anything worth looking at as a fear, and prints for your midwife or doula.

Fear Clearance tracks

Press play and follow along

Guided audio clearances led by Alexia Leachman, using Head Trash Clearance, the method she's developed over 17 years of practice. No reading and no decisions about what to do next. Each track runs for around 40 minutes, and you can come back to it as often as you need.

Fear of Pregnancy

For when pregnancy itself is the thing that scares you.

Fear of Childbirth & Labour

A good place to start if your fear of birth feels general rather than specific.

Fear of Pain

For the fear of how much birth will hurt, and whether you'll cope.

£22 / $29Buy now

Fear of Losing Control

For the fear of not being listened to, or of not being in charge of what happens.

£22 / $29Buy now

Fear of Losing Dignity

For the fear of feeling exposed or judged during birth.

Not sure which?

Start with Childbirth & Labour. If one fear feels much bigger than the rest, start there instead.

Which one do I need?

Scared of something that's still ahead? Start with a Fear Clearance track. Still carrying something that already happened? A Wound Healing kit is the place to start.

Wound Healing kits

Meet the wound gently

For when a pregnancy, a birth or an abortion left a mark that hasn't settled. Each kit is a complete, self-paced healing process for one wound: a journal, a short introductory video, a guide to read, and a 25 to 30 minute healing activation audio led by Alexia. It works with the imprint the experience left behind, not the details of what happened, so you don't need to relive anything or tell your story to anyone.

Pregnancy Wound Healing

For when a past pregnancy, yours or one passed down the line, left a wound that hasn't yet healed.

£45 / $59Buy now

Birth Wound Healing

When the birth itself left a wound, through intervention, loss of control, pain or feeling unheard.

£45 / $59Buy now

Abortion Wound Healing

Grief, relief, guilt, numbness, sometimes all at once. Whatever you felt then, and whatever you feel now, is valid. This meets the wound gently, without judgement.

£45 / $59Buy now

Once you've done a healing activation, give it room to settle. Deep healing can take a few weeks to find its place. These tracks aren't therapy and they aren't a substitute for clinical mental health care. If you're struggling, please talk to your doctor, and if you're in crisis, contact your local emergency services.
