FOR PREGNANT WOMEN & THEIR PARTNERS
Birth doesn’t have to be something you survive.
You’ve felt the fear everyone hands you about labour. Here’s a different way in: retrain your nervous system, understand what’s actually happening in your body, and walk in steady, whatever the day brings.
Ask a hundred people what comes to mind when they hear “childbirth,” and almost all of them say one word: pain.
That’s the story our culture hands every pregnant woman, and it’s the reason so many of us walk into labour braced for the worst. But your mind and body aren’t separate. What you believe about birth changes how your body responds to it.
Fear creates a stress response that makes labour harder. Calm creates the opposite. This isn’t about pretending birth won’t be intense, it’s about giving your nervous system a different instruction before you get there.
“What we fear, we fuel. What we resist, persists.”

The Whole Pathway
Chapter 1 Transform Your Birth
This is where it begins. You will understand how birth works, learn practical tools for breathing, relaxation and mindset, and begin to shift the beliefs that might otherwise work against you in labour. You will leave genuinely ready, both of you.
Chapter 2 The Village Prenatal
From the moment you enrol, you are not doing this alone. You step into the Village during pregnancy, with access to Tracey’s guidance, monthly Q&A sessions, the online course materials, and a community of other parents preparing alongside you.
Chapter 3 The Village Postpartum
When your baby arrives, the support continues. Parenting coaching, real conversations, the mothers’ group, practical resources, and a community that genuinely understands what this season feels like. Because becoming a parent changes you, and you deserve support through that change.

Every woman who has given birth knows this in some way. Something shifts. The person who walks out of that birth room is not quite the same as the person who walked in.
Tracey Anderson Askew has spent more than 20 years exploring what that transformation is, and how to prepare for it with more intention.
Through her training in Rapid Transformational Therapy, Tracey brings a deeper understanding of how beliefs, fear and the nervous system shape the birth experience. This is part of what gives her work its depth. She does not just teach couples what happens in labour. She helps them understand what may be happening underneath the surface too.
When a woman approaches labour from a place of fear, her body can move into stress and tension. When she feels calm, safe and supported, her body is far more able to work with the process of birth. This is why preparation matters so much. Not just information, but the kind of preparation that helps you feel different on the inside.
That is what Transform Your Birth is designed to do.
It helps you understand birth, practise tools that support calm and confidence, and gently shift the fears and stories that may otherwise make the experience harder than it needs to be.
This is why the work does not stop with the workshop. What happens in birth can shape how you enter parenthood, and that is why ongoing support matters too.

FROM FAMILIES WHO HAVE BEEN HERE
“Tracey is a fantastic presenter, she is warm and makes you feel instantly at ease. We had such a good time at her weekend course, the information covered was so useful, made so much sense and has helped us so much. My husband said the same, he feels better equipped to support me as best he can to welcome our baby. Every soon to be parent needs to meet Tracey and take as much as possible from her incredible amount of knowledge and passion for the beauty and transformational power of birth.“
~ Elise
“Such an empowering course that inspires you to embrace what your body is capable of. To walk away from the course with tools and strategies that allow you to birth with love was the greatest gift. Both myself and my birthing partner felt supported and ready to embrace the birthing journey no matter how the birthing experience presented.“
~ Kim
“Tracey is a born educator. Her use of personal anecdotes – including fresh humour and digital media – mixed with information on empirical evidence – science on anatomy, physiology, hormones – and latest clinical and midwifery thinking is excellent. Tracey caters for all types of mums, with differing levels of knowledge and who seek and absorb data differently.”
~ Natalie
Frequently asked q’s
Before you decide
I'm not in Canberra. Can I still do this?
Yes. Every course runs live online as well as in person, and you’ll get the same access to Tracey and the monthly Q&A calls either way.
Does my partner need to come too?
It’s built with two people in mind. Partners who come along consistently say it changed how useful they felt in the room.
What if I've had a difficult birth before?
You’re in the right place. Many women come to Tracey after a previous birth didn’t go the way they hoped. The Refresher course and Birth Concierge are both built with this in mind.
How far along should I be before I start?
Most women start in their second trimester, but there’s no wrong time. The free mini course is a good way to begin whenever you’re ready.
