About this listen
What do babies know that birth workers too often forget?
In this episode, we explore a truth that lives beneath technique, protocols, and performance: babies already know how they want to be born—and birth work is not about control, but listening.
This conversation dives deep into the spiritual, emotional, and embodied dimensions of birth, womb wisdom, and transitional care. We talk about intuition as a skill, the womb as a living archive that keeps count of trauma and tenderness, and why not every doula is meant to practice the same way... or even practice in every season.
You’ll hear reflections on:
- Why birth is fundamentally spirit work, whether we name it or not
- How trauma, surrender, and intuition shape labor and birth outcomes
- The responsibility birth workers hold in protecting energetic thresholds
- Why rest is not a luxury, but a requirement for sustainability
- How birth work extends far beyond the delivery room into grief, menopause, rebirth, and life transitions
This episode is for doulas, midwives, birth workers, healers, and families who are ready to move beyond surface-level care and into deeper listening—of the body, the womb, and Spirit.
If you’re navigating burnout, transition, or the in-between spaces of life and work, this conversation is an invitation to pause, rest, and remember what you already know.
Because sometimes the most powerful thing you can do…
is listen.
