Milli Hill on the Positive Birth Movement and how she was banished from her own community

Milli Hill is a freelance journalist and author The Positive Birth Book, Give Birth like a Feminist, and a new book for preteens, My Period. She founded the Positive Birth Movement in 2012 and ran it until recently, when she was “cancelled” for defending woman-centered language when talking about pregnancy and birth.

In this episode, I speak with her about “positive birth,” why birth is a feminist issue, and how being attacked by her own community impacted her.
