Podcasts about Birth

Doula work often takes us on unexpected paths, and Eva's journey is a perfect example of how growth and change can come full circle. Eva began her career as an independent contractor, supporting families through labor and postpartum. Over time, she became a doula trainer, sharing her knowledge and experience with others entering the profession. Eventually, she joined Angela as a business partner at Tucson Doulas, helping to grow and shape the agency into what it is today. Now, after years of leadership and teaching, Eva has stepped back from training and agency ownership to return to her roots as an independent contractor with Tucson Doulas. Health and life circumstances can shift priorities, and her story is a reminder that evolving in birth work doesn't always mean moving forward; it can also mean coming home. Join us as we talk about Eva's journey, the lessons she's learned along the way, and how embracing change can bring renewed purpose and balance to a doula's career.

The first movie ever screened in the White House wasn't Casablanca or Mr. Smith Goes to Washington. It was The Birth of a Nation: a Ku Klux Klan recruitment ad that glorified white rage bloodlust. A century later, Trump's White House is the sequel: staged propaganda to glorify lies, violence, and hate against freedom fighters–otherwise known as antifa–otherwise known as World War II veterans who won the war against tyranny. Because if you're not antifa, you're pro-fascism.  Trump is the Frankenstein monster of America's darkest chapters: Jim Crow, McCarthyism, Watergate, and reality-TV nihilism. But the heroes who stormed Normandy didn't die for us to cower before a spray-tanned con man. Which brings us to the Epstein Files: the panic button of MAGA-land. If the Epstein Files were nothing, Trump and Mike Johnson wouldn't be working so hard to shut down our government and prevent a vote. “Teflon Don” has gotten away with years of crimes, including inciting a violent attempted overthrow of our democracy, which led to several deaths, including of law enforcement. So why is he so panicked about the Epstein Files? The truth will come out, as it always does. And remember: bullies only understand strength. So keep pushing, keep shouting, and for the love of democracy: Release. The. Epstein. Files.

Today, I interview Catherine G. Lucas who opens up about losing her voice in the midst of a painful breakdown. In her late teens she was already standing on stage for public speaking competitions, but by the time her parents divorced during her university years, the weight of family wounds caught up with her. Instead of enjoying summer with friends, she found herself in an acute psychiatric ward, her world shattered and her voice silenced.Her breakthrough came much later, when she discovered that what had been called a breakdown could also be seen as an awakening. It took years of reframing and deep inner work to see her experience not as illness, but as a turning point with the potential for healing.Through mindfulness, patient advocacy, and writing her first book, In Case of Spiritual Emergency, Catherine began to speak from her whole self rather than hide in shame. Today she helps others step into their deeper calling, showing that finding your voice is not about perfection but about expressing the truth of who you are in a way that heals and uplifts.__________________Catherine G. Lucas is the author of four books on how to move successfully through crisis and harness the transformational power it holds. A former university professor, Catherine left her academic career behind to step into her soul's deeper calling, following a profound crisis of awakening.She went on to set up a UK charity and now helps people step into their deeper calling. Her media appearances include BBC Radio 4 and TimeWarner TV, and she regularly speaks internationally. More recently, Catherine has convened the highly acclaimed Birth the New Earth summit.__________________Find Catherine here:https://www.youtube.com/user/CatherineGLucashttps://www.catherine-g-lucas.com/https://www.co-creatingourfuture.world/https://www.co-creatingourfuture.world/free-gift-download/Support the showI'm Dr. Doreen Downing and I help people find their voice so they can speak without fear.

In this episode, we're diving deep (literally and figuratively!) into one of the most important yet often misunderstood parts of our bodies: the pelvic floor. Joining us is the incredible Dr. Allison Oswald, a pelvic health specialist who helps women reconnect to their bodies through every stage of pregnancy, birth, and beyond. We unpack what the pelvic floor actually is, why it deserves your attention (hint: it does way more than just hold things in place), and how to support and strengthen it through mindful movement, breathwork, and awareness. We also talk about healing after birth, physically, emotionally, and spiritually, including ways to process and care for yourself after birth trauma. This episode couldn't have come at a better time it was recorded it just days before Teresa gave birth, and she ended up using many of Dr. Oswald's techniques during her own postpartum recovery!

Ep 160 Description:  "Sexuality is ours. It isn't something we bring from the outside. It isn't dependent on having a partner. We can connect to that channel of sexuality, which is pure life force at any moment." —Naoli Vinaver   Pain is not the inevitable companion of childbirth—pleasure is. Women have been systematically disconnected from the profound energetic and sexual potential of their birthing experiences. But what if we challenge everything we've been told about how babies enter the world? Naoli Vinaver is a veteran midwife with nearly 40 years of experience revolutionizing birth practices. Her groundbreaking work explores the intersection of sexuality, healing, and childbirth, challenging cultural taboos and empowering women to reclaim their most intimate experiences. Tune in as Debra and Naoli dive deep into the transformative power of pleasure, revealing how masturbation, tantric techniques, and sexual energy can turn childbirth from a feared ordeal into a transcendent, healing journey of self-discovery and empowerment.   Connect with Debra!

Europe is over.

Why does much of the history of philosophy neglect the topic of birth? In episode 142 of Overthink, Ellie and David chat with Jennifer Banks about her book Natality: Toward a Philosophy of Birth. They think through the debate between pronatalism and antinatalism, and consider alternatives to these positions. They also discuss Hannah Arendt's account of natality and what Mary Shelley's Frankenstein tells us about the relationship between birth and monstrosity. What is birth, and why does it seem to defy so many of our concepts and categories? What's the difference between being-born and giving-birth? And how would our view of ourselves change if we saw ourselves through the lens of a “philosophy of birth” (as opposed to, say, “a philosophy of death”)? In the Substack bonus segment, your hosts dive further into Hannah Arendt's works, focusing on the link between her concept of natality and her ideas about the public/private distinction.Works Discussed:Hannah Arendt, The Human ConditionJennifer Banks, Natality: Toward a Philosophy of BirthAlison Stone, Being Born: Birth and PhilosophyDean Spears and Michael Geruso, After the Spike: Population, Progress, and the Case for PeopleMarjolein Oele, “The Dissolution of the Pregnant City: A Philosophical Account of Early Pregnancy Loss and Enigmatic Grief”See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This special two-part episode features Roman Alonso of Commune and David Calligeros of Remains Lighting in two distinct conversations exploring origins, philosophy, and the meaning of design partnerships. Designer Resources Pacific Sales Kitchen and Home. Where excellence meets expertise. Design Hardware - A stunning and vast collection of jewelry for the home! TimberTech - Real wood beauty without the upkeep LOME-AI.com, simple, inexpensive, text to video harnessing the power of AI to grow your firm, beautifully. From salvaging antiques to designing timeless interiors, David and Roman share stories of growth, collaboration, and craft. What began as a single interview turned into a richer double feature—a master class in design values, sustainability, and the essential philosophies behind two influential studios. Part One: David Calligeros, Remains Lighting Origins and Influences: From antiques and architectural salvage to a design career shaped by an arts-influenced mother and an engineer father. The Birth of Remains: Starting in Manhattan in 1995, evolving from antiques into lighting design. Engineering Meets Art: Marrying technical precision with artistic intuition. Custom Work & Collaborations: Partnering with Commune, Robert A.M. Stern, Matthew Fisher, and others. IP, Dupes & Authenticity: Protecting design through integrity, storytelling, and craftsmanship. Sustainability & Craft: LEED Gold Brooklyn factory, solar array, stormwater recycling, and green production practices. Business & Market Challenges: Navigating the 2008 crash, tariffs, and the value of US-based manufacturing. Philosophy: Design as a question-driven, ethical practice rooted in long-term value and collaboration. Link: Remains Lighting Part Two: Roman Alonso, Commune Origins and Career Path: From Caracas to Miami, Boston, New York, and LA; a career spanning publishing, fashion, and interiors. Formation of Commune Studio (2003): Built around collaboration, essentialism, and quality. Studio Philosophy: Purposeful, small by design, focused on meaningful work and enduring value. Influences: Latin American upbringing, Isaac Mizrahi, Lisa Eisner, and lessons from fashion and editorial worlds. Product Development: Solving real design problems, prototyping in-house before release. Collaboration: Strategic partnerships (including Remains Lighting) to ensure usability and quality. Personal Philosophy: Stoicism, fairness, ethical production, and acknowledging imposter syndrome. Evolution of the Firm: Scaling deliberately—growing reach through products and partnerships while keeping the studio intimate. Quotes: “Good design shouldn't be a privilege—it's a right.” “Design is about editing, listening, and creating solutions that people might not even know they need.” This episode illustrates how partnerships in design aren't just about collaboration—they're about shared values, craft, and philosophy. By hearing these conversations separately, you'll gain insights into two distinct but complementary approaches to design, sustainability, and creativity. So much to take in. This was a master class on how to structure, nurture and grow design partnerships. Make sure you check the show notes for links and notes about all of the topics covered.

In 1980s Ohio, Jeffrey Lundgren wasn't just studying scripture — he was twisting it into something dangerous. To outsiders, he was a soft-spoken tour guide at a historic church site. But behind closed doors, Lundgren was preaching a radical new theology, gathering followers and slowly convincing them that he spoke for God. His target? The Kirtland Temple — once the holiest site in the Latter Day Saint movement.

“The origin was really trying to make sense of that 2016-2017 moment and to ask whether the alt-right was, as we were being told, a return to the 1930s, a kind of awakening of the sleeping beast of white supremacy armed in the streets in the United States. There are many explanations, but I decided to take this kind of curious route in with the distorted readings and reinterpretations of the works of people like Ludwig von Mises and Friedrich Hayek. As a scholar of comparative literature, I wanted to write a revision based on Crack-Up Capitalism.”In this episode of the Speaking Out of Place podcast, Professor David Palumbo-Liu talks with Quinn Slobodian about his new book, Hayek's Bastards: Race, Gold, IQ, and the Capitalism of the Far Right. He takes a deep dive into the genesis of a weird and powerful merging of two seemingly different groups the Far Right and neoliberals. Slobodian writes, “as repellent as their politics may be these radical thinkers are not barbarians the gates of neoliberalism but the bastard offspring of that line of thought itself.” They talk about how this meshing is driven by a primitive desire to ward off egalitarianism, difference, democracy, and government that services the common good. The wide-ranging talk ends with addressing DOGE, Trump's tariffs, and yes, the Jeffrey Epstein case.Quinn Slobodian is a professor of international history at the Frederick S. Pardee School of Global Studies at Boston University. His books, which have been translated into ten languages, include Globalists: The End of Empire and the Birth of Neoliberalism, Crack-Up Capitalism: Market Radicals and the Dream of a World without Democracy, and Hayek's Bastards: Race, Gold, IQ and the Capitalism of the Far Right . A Guggenheim Fellow for 2025-6, he has been an associate fellow at Chatham House and held residential fellowships at Harvard University and Free University Berlin. Project Syndicate put him on a list of 30 Forward Thinkers and Prospect UK named him one of the World's 25 Top Thinkers.https://speakingoutofplace.comBluesky @palumboliu.bsky.socialInstagram @speaking_out_of_place

A conversation with Paul Pfeiffer, Stanley Wolukau-Wanambwa, and Anthony Elms recorded in May 2025. Stanley Wolukau-Wanambwa makes art, writes about it, and occasionally edits essay anthologies. His artist's book, INDEX 2025, is out now from ROMA Publications, and his recent essay “ECHO—LOCATION,” on installations at Dia Art Foundation by Cameron Rowland and Steve McQueen, featured in the April issue of e-flux journal.  Recent exhibitions include Scene at Eastman, at George Eastman Museum (2025), Greater New York at MoMA PS1 (2021), and But Still, It Turns at the International Center of Photography, New York (2021).  Read more essays in e-flux journal by Stanley Wolukau-Wanambwa here. Paul Pfeiffer recasts the visual language of pop spectacle to investigate how media images shape our perception of the world and ourselves. Working in video, photography, sculpture, and sound, he is drawn to moments intended for mass audiences (live sports events, stadium concert tours, televised game shows, celebrity glamour shots), which he meticulously samples and re-edits to expose an uncanny emptiness underneath. From the hyperreality of photo retouching and digital erasure to the endless repetition of video loops, his mastery of postproduction allows him to magnify the surreal aspects of contemporary existence, where bodies become sites of saturated observation, and violence-as-entertainment flirts with nationalism, religion, and ancient myth. While he also experiments with the format and scale of his works, immersive audiovisual installations often cohabit with portable fetish objects in his exhibitions. Throughout his practice, Pfeiffer seeks to reflect and heighten the existential condition of the viewer as consumer by perversely blurring the boundary between voyeurism and contemplation. The recent exhibition discussed in this episode, Paul Pfeiffer: Prologue to the Story of the Birth of Freedom was presented at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, and the MCA Chicago.  Read a review from e-flux Criticism of Prologue to the Story of the Birth of Freedom at The Geffen Contemporary at MOCA, Los Angeles by Juliana Halpert. Anthony Elms organizes exhibitions and writes. He recently organized Rodney McMillian: Neighbors for the Henry Art Gallery, Seattle, Wa. opening in October 2025. An essay on artist Oliver Ressler, "Ellipsesverse," posts online this fall for Ressler's exhibition Scenes from the Invention of Democracy at the Museum Tinguely. His essay "Begin to begin to begin to begin to begin" is forthcoming in Ecstatic Aperture: Perspectives on the Life and Work of Terry Riley. from Auryfa / Shelter Press.

In this episode of Lip Service, we sit down for an honest and emotional conversation about pregnancy, love, and life after birth. She opens up about finding out she was pregnant while filming Ruth & Boaz, navigating the ups and downs of being treated poorly in Georgia versus receiving better care in New Jersey, and her plans for a natural birth that ultimately turned into a C-section when her son was breech. We dive into how she handled Joey’s past Lip Service appearance where he spoke about being poly, what people told her when their relationship first became public, and the story of how they actually met. She also talks about wedding planning, her excitement over learning she was having a baby boy, and her hopes to expand her family with more children in the future. The conversation doesn’t shy away from the real — from the pressure of the “snapback” to her decision to embrace her new body and baby weight. Plus, she shares the inspiration behind her bold anthem “I Don’t Fix N*as”**, a song that resonates with women everywhere. This is a raw and uplifting look at pregnancy, motherhood, and independence, mixed with the fun, unfiltered energy you can only find on Lip Service.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

“Founding Fathers” like Washington or Jefferson have gigantic monuments in Washington, statues galore and palatial house-museums. But what about…Thomas Paine? The author of “Common Sense,” the pamphlet that brought the idea of American independence to the masses, was considered a hero after the American Revolution. But then he experienced a remarkable fall from grace, which ended in his burial in a pauper's grave and…well, some graverobbers disinterring his body and spreading his bones all over the world.Feelin' the Paine? Check out the biography “Thomas Paine: Enlightenment, Revolution, and the Birth of Modern Nations” by Craig Nelson, this Library of Congress article on Paine's bones, and a discussion of Paine's philosophy on this episode of the BBC's In Our Time.  Or see his New Rochelle farmhouse (and…former grave) for yourself: https://www.thomaspainecottage.org/ Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this Bible Story, Jesus heals a man who was blind from birth. The young man who is healed is then questioned by the Pharisees, for they do not want to admit that Jesus is truly good and had the power to heal. The once blind man stands firm in declaring that no evil man could do what Jesus did. This story is inspired by John 9:1-38.

The disciples, misunderstanding the man's condition, thought that his blindness was a result of sin. But Jesus proved to them that the man was not blind because of sin but rather so God could be glorified in healing him. After Jesus had healed the man he was brought in front of the Pharisees to be questioned about his newfound sight. But as they were questioning the formerly blind man, his honest answers revealed their spiritual blindness.Hear the Bible come to life as Pastor Jack Graham leads you through the official BibleinaYear.com podcast.
