Lake, an integral figure in the birthing community since the 2007 debut of the documentary "The Business of Being Born" and subsequent projects ("Your Best Birth" book and MyBestBirth.com website) that encourage childbearing women to become informed maternity care consumers, has traveled tirelessly around the world to discuss the state of the birthing "industry" in an effort to demonstrate how all parents-to-be can benefit from taking a more active role in their birth experiences.
