Can birth actually heal your childhood wounds? Holistic birth guide, doula, and podcast host Eyla Cuenca joins us for one of the most soul-shifting conversations we've ever had. Known for her trauma-informed, spiritually grounded approach to birth, Eyla dives deep into how our earliest experiences shape our nervous system—and how the birth portal can actually help us reclaim, rewire, and heal. With over a decade of experience and more than 200 births attended, Eyla brings wisdom, depth, and compassion to this powerful dialogue. From inner child healing to conscious conception to the vibrations of our words in labor—this episode is a wake-up call to slow down, reconnect, and birth from a place of wholeness. Whether you’re a birth worker, a mama-to-be, or someone on their own healing journey—this episode will stir something in you. If you've ever felt birth was more than just a physical event… you’re right. And this conversation might just unlock what’s been waiting for you all along.     Key Highlights: • What it really means to reclaim your birth experience• Why the nervous system matters more than we realize—especially in birth & breastfeeding• Why birth isn’t a medical event—it’s a biological, emotional, and spiritual initiation• How childhood wounds show up in pregnancy and labor• Why “just feeding the baby” isn’t always as simple as it seems• The connection between colic, maternal anxiety, and nervous system mirroring• How we’re conditioned to override our inner “no” from childhood• Why postpartum support should matter more than your baby registry• What doulas and birth workers can do to avoid burnout—and why personal healing is part of the job• Why this isn’t just for moms: how everyone can benefit from exploring their own birth story   About the Reclaiming Birth ConferenceThis powerful in-person gathering brings together voices from around the world who are reclaiming birth, autonomy, and truth.
