Birth Map™
Birth prep as unique as you are.
Birth Map™ is a series of guided workbooks designed to help you prepare for birth by understanding yourself — your patterns, values, boundaries, and support needs — so preparation fits the person, not the template.
Rather than telling you what birth “should” look like, Birth Map helps you notice what actually supports you.
This program may be a good fit if…
You feel overwhelmed by conflicting birth advice
You want preparation that feels personal, not prescriptive
You have preferences but aren’t sure how to organize or communicate them
You know that mindset, history, and context matter — but want more than affirmations or rigid techniques
You want to prepare thoughtfully, even if birth doesn’t go as planned
You don’t need to have a specific type of birth in mind to use Birth Map.
What Birth Map Is (and Isn’t)
Birth Map is:
Reflective and self-guided
Grounded in self-knowledge
Designed to clarify what helps, what doesn’t, and where flexibility matters
Birth Map is not:
A birth plan template
A checklist or set of rules
A promise of a specific outcome
Preparation is most effective when it reflects the individual — Birth Map exists to support that process.
Inside Birth Map™
The program is organized to help you understand, reflect, and prepare — without overwhelm.
How fear, pain, and physiology interact during birth
Why context, language, and support matter
How nervous system regulation influences experience
Common barriers to a positive birth — and how to navigate them
Ways to prepare that honor real bodies and real lives
Reflection prompts and activities are woven throughout to help you apply this information to your own experience.
What Makes Birth Map™ Different
Birth Map helps you understand why certain things feel supportive — and what gets in the way when they don’t.
Rather than asking you to commit to a specific plan, Birth Map supports:
Awareness over performance
Flexibility over rigidity
Preparation that adapts to real bodies and real situations
The Birth Map Series
Each Birth Map focuses on a different layer of preparation.
You can use one, or move through them as a set.
How Birth-Map connects with other Sound Birthing Programs
Birth Map™ works on its own or alongside other Sound Birthing programs. You can do one, two or all Birth Map programs depending on your n
Many people choose to pair it with:
Mind-Body, Birth™ explains how fear, physiology, and context shape birth
Birth Compass™ supports real-time orientation during birth
You can begin with Birth Map at any point in your preparation.
Flexibility at the Forefront
Birth Map is designed with the understanding that:
People change during pregnancy
Circumstances change during labor
Preparation should allow room for both
You’re not preparing to control birth — you’re preparing to recognize what supports you when it matters.
