What if the most powerful thing you could do for your baby's health started before you even conceived?
We live in a modern world but our bodies still run on ancient wisdom. The way we prepare for conception, navigate birth and recover postpartum has been understood by traditional cultures for thousands of years. And now modern science is catching up, confirming what our ancestors always knew.
The problem is that most women enter pregnancy already depleted. They give birth without truly preparing their body. And they emerge from the postpartum period more exhausted, more depleted and more overwhelmed than when they went in because nobody taught them what they actually needed to know.
The Wise Traditions Series was created to change that.
WHAT'S INCLUDED

Nourishing and preparing for the fourth trimester before baby arrives
This is for you if:
- You are planning a pregnancy and want to optimise your health before you conceive
- You are currently pregnant and want to prepare your body and mind for birth
- You are preparing for the postpartum period and want to know how to truly nourish your recovery
- You have been through pregnancy before and felt depleted, overwhelmed or unsupported and want to do things differently this time
- You are drawn to a natural, traditional approach to motherhood but also want to understand the science behind it
- You want practical, actionable guidance from a qualified naturopath not generic advice from the internet
Most women focus on fertility but preconception care is about so much more than conception. It is about preparing the healthiest possible foundation for your baby before they even exist. The decisions you make in the months before conception will influence your baby's health for life.
In this workshop you will learn:
- Why preconception nutrition matters more than pregnancy nutrition
- The key nutrients for egg quality, hormone balance and a healthy conception
- How to support your methylation pathways and why this is critical before pregnancy
- Herbal medicine for hormonal balance, cycle regulation and fertility support
- How to reduce your toxic load before conception
- What tests to check before you try to conceive
- A practical preconception nutrition and supplement protocol
Birth is one of the most significant physical events a woman's body will ever undergo. Yet most birth preparation focuses on the mental and emotional experience with very little attention is paid to how to prepare your body physically and nutritionally for the event itself.
In this workshop you will learn:
- Nutritional preparation for birth
- The evidence behind dates, evening primrose, raspberry leaf tea and other traditional birth preparation practices
- Herbal support for labour preparation
- Perineal preparation to prevent tearing
- How to nourish yourself during labour
- What to prepare in advance for an optimal birth experience
The postpartum period s known in many traditions as the sacred window. It is one of the most undervalued and underserved periods in a woman's life. How you are nourished and supported in the weeks and months after birth will shape your physical and emotional recovery for years to come.
In this workshop you will learn:
- The concept of the sacred window including what traditional cultures understood about postpartum recovery
- Postpartum nutrition including the most important foods and nutrients for recovery and breastfeeding
- Herbal medicine for postpartum recovery, milk supply and mood support
- Understanding and preventing postnatal depletion
- How to prepare your postpartum pantry before baby arrives

Testimonials
“The wise traditions birth preparations workshop was just what I needed. It gave me a simple sense of direction on what I could do to support my body and myself mentally in preparation for birth. We can get so caught up in the array of medical appointments and societal norms of preparing for birth, and this course has grounded me back to my body and my baby. Thanks Kate”
- Alexandra Violet, Mother
I did the birth prep course in one go, it was that full of amazing info!!! Even though I have many years of experience in the pregnancy and birth realm, I learnt so much about natural ways to support the body to function optimally for birth. I’d never heard of many things mentioned and I will 100% be putting into practice what I’ve learnt through this course. I can’t wait to start getting my body prepped on an even deeper level.
- Hannah, Doula and Mother to be
The Wise Tradition Birth Preparation workshop is full of vital information to prepare your body for an optimal birth.
Kate discusses crucial minerals and herbs, beneficial homeopathy remedies and a mixture of ancient tradition and newly researched techniques giving you all the tools to set you up for a great labour and birth.
I’ve done a lot of research and worked with many different professionals in my motherhood journey and I was shocked at the amount I learned from this course. Thanks again Kate!
- Ash, Mother
‘’I've been following Kate's work since before my first baby was conceived and now midway through my second pregnancy I've completed her traditional birth prep workshop. I definitely learnt a few things I already thought I knew! So refreshing to see her knowledge is backed up by relevant studies and research. I'll definitely be implementing a fair few of these practices as my pregnancy progresses to help relieve stress and help me connect with my body and baby. Thank you Kate for always being a great source of information for mothers.’
- Katie, Mother
This is my third pregnancy, and I took away so much from this course. After experiencing mastitis with my last two, I feel so much more confident this time around. I’ve learned how to better support my body with the right herbs and nutrition, and that knowledge alone has made a huge difference already!
Leonie, Pilates Instructor
Kate's post partum workshop is an absolute essential for post partum care and recovery. As a Naturopath and first time mum to be, I found the information provided to be incredibly thorough and will refer to the advice both personally and with my clients. The workshop is a really accessible way for anyone to understand the importance of being prepared with post partum essentials and what kind of food, supplements, herbal remedies, homeopathic remedies and other supplies to stock your homes with. The information provided allows you to be prepared for a range of situations - whether that be general post partum recovery, reducing excess bleeding, recovery from a c-section, supporting milk supply, mood and mastitis and colic remedies. Thank you Kate for this invaluable resource.

"I have been seeing Kate for pre conception care for my last two pregnancies and have valued her knowledge and support so much, I make my friends see her! Now about to dive into my third pre conception care, this work shop has come at a perfect time. So great to know her work is evidence based, and the history of pre conception care is fascinating. Kate has researched a huge amount of information and made a concise, easy to learn presentation. I’ve really enjoyed learning about the big picture of pre conception care and why it’s so important''

''Super grateful for the pre-conception info. Loved all the different avenues of learning to support our bodies and be informed as best we can be.''

''I am currently planning for my third baby and absolutely loved Kate’s Pre Conception Care Workshop. As someone who took over 12 months to conceive my second baby, I wanted to go into this third conception journey feeling more prepared so I know I’m supporting my body best during this time and optimising my fertility. This workshop is jam packed with so much helpful, practical information that I’m excited to implement into my daily routine, and share with my partner. I love the way that Kate shares both traditional and modern methods and practices that are backed up by evidence, and provides really clear additional resources to help take the information and actually apply it. I’m so happy knowing I’m going into this next phase of motherhood fully supporting my body with exactly what it needs during this time.''
