Episode 132 - Who is Mel and what is she doing?

  • Summary

  • Dr Melanie Jackson is the host of the Great Birth Rebellion podcast but do you really know her? Mel's husband Dan interviews her to get to the bottom of who she is and what she is up to. Dan probes with questions about her background, motivations, and journey into Midwifery. Discover Mel's academic and professional activities, including her transition from Naturopathy to Midwifery and into academia. The conversation also covers her family life, homeschooling their children, their permaculture lifestyle, and the creation of The Great Birth Rebellion podcast. Mel shares insights into her philosophy about pregnancy and birth, her efforts to influence the birth culture through education and mentorship, and her vision for the future of maternity care.
