She joins us to talk about what it takes to keep maternity services running amid rising health care costs, decreasing revenue and staffing challenges.

In this episode, we dive into the often-overlooked role of men in the birthing process and the profound rite of passage it represents for fathers, mothers, and children alike. We explore how devotion, presence, and embodied masculinity can transform not only the birth experience but the entire foundation of family life. From challenging the medicalized narratives that strip away natural sovereignty, to honoring birth as a spiritual initiation that shapes identity, resilience, and connection, this conversation is a call for men to reclaim their rightful place as protectors, anchors, and conscious participants in one of life's most powerful thresholds.Time Stamps (00:00) Episode Teaser(00:39) Intro(06:26) Simon Esler's Personal Journey and Creative Pursuits(18:53) Navigating Sociopolitical Differences in the Arts(29:32) The Role of Masculinity in Birth and Pregnancy(42:18) Success Stories of Alternative Medicine(45:02) The Role of Fathers in Birth and Family(47:33) The Rite of Passage in Birth(49:51) Impact of C-Sections on Birth Experience(52:06) Challenges and Pressures in Modern Birth Practices(57:41) Breastfeeding and the Family Unit(01:03:14) Fatherhood and Devotion(01:15:43) Balancing Work and Family as a Father(01:23:18) Balancing Chaos and Parenting(01:24:07) Understanding Human Design in Family Dynamics(01:26:58) The Importance of Devotion and Presence(01:30:17) The Transformative Power of Birth for Men(01:36:06) Navigating Birth Experiences and Medical Systems(01:43:46) Reclaiming Birth and Cultural Conditioning(01:48:55) The Reclaiming Birth Conference(01:53:44) Final Reflections and Community EngagementGuest Linkshttps://www.simonesler.com/ https://www.reclaimingbirthconference.com/simon-esler (use code SIMON15 for 15% off your ticket)https://www.instagram.com/simon_esler1111/ Previous episodes with SimonConnect with UsJoin our membership Friends of the TruthSubscribe to Here for the Truth FridaysTake the Real AF Test NowDiscover Your Truth Seeker ArchetypeWatch all our episodesConnect with us on TelegramAccess all our links

He discusses the fundamental principles of Zero Trust, including defining protect surfaces, mapping transaction flows, and implementing microsegmentation.

Have you ever found yourself thinking, “I don't know if I should stay, and I don't know if I should go”? That painful in-between is called relationship ambivalence, and it can quietly drain years of your life if you don't get clarity. In this episode, I'm joined by relationship researcher Dr. Merideth Thompson, who knows that limbo all too well. After staying stuck for nearly a decade, she created Partner Lab, a research-based company focused on improving relationships as a cornerstone of overall wellness. Together we'll explore what the science says about relationship health, the “Clarity Matrix” she developed to cut through the fog, and the real-life questions that matter most when deciding whether to stay or leave.

The book features ideas like creating shared bedrooms that foster connection, displaying kids' artwork in meaningful ways, and finding beauty in the everyday mess. Courtney shares how she curates functional, joyful spaces that actually work for a big family, drawing on her family's journey from America to the UK and now to Byron Bay. We dive into how she keeps her own family connected as her children grow, the different seasons of motherhood, and the big life shifts that have shaped her parenting and design philosophy. We also reflect on aging, wrinkles, societal pressures to stay youthful, and how we continue showing up for the many little (and not so little) people in our lives.

It is common for partners to have different opinions about pregnancy, birth, or parenting. These differences can create tension, especially when decisions need to be made. As doulas, we play a vital role in navigating these situations with professionalism and care. It is important that we equip ourselves with strategies to support both individuals without taking sides. We can more effectively help them communicate by asking questions that invite open communication and help uncover the underlying values or fears behind each perspective. Understanding where each person is coming from creates space for empathy and problem-solving. Guiding partners toward common ground by encouraging collaboration and fostering mutual respect is critical. By remaining neutral and supportive, doulas can help families approach these challenges as a team rather than opponents. Join us for a practical conversation on how to maintain balance, build trust, and support healthy communication when clients and their partners see things differently.

In this week's episode, we explore the multifaceted journey of parenting, and personal growth. We discuss the challenges of self-taping in acting, the fleeting nature of childhood, and the importance of being present with children. The conversation also delves into mental health, postpartum experiences, and the evolution of Silly Miss Lily as a brand that aims to support parents and children through creative play and learning. We reflect on our own childhoods, the impact of community, and the pursuit of creative fulfillment in a rapidly changing world.00:00 Introduction to Silly Miss Lily03:03 The Challenges of Acting and Self-Taping05:52 The Importance of Time with Children08:41 Navigating Postpartum and Mental Health12:01 The Birth of a New Family Member14:40 The Evolution of Silly Miss Lily17:31 The Role of Play in Learning20:53 Balancing Personal Identity and Parenting23:37 The Growth of Silly Miss Lily's Brand26:26 The Impact of Social Media on Parenting29:19 The Pursuit of Acting and Creative Fulfillment32:23 The Journey of Self-Discovery and Healing35:25 The Influence of Childhood on Parenting38:02 The Importance of Community and Support40:45 The Future of Silly Miss Lily43:24 Conclusion and Final ThoughtsTakeawaysThe importance of being present with children during their formative years.Self-taping can be a challenging aspect of acting, especially without feedback.Mental health and postpartum experiences can significantly impact parenting.Creative play is essential for children's learning and development.Building a supportive community is crucial for parents.The evolution of personal identity is intertwined with parenting.Social media can be a powerful tool for sharing parenting experiences.Consistency in pursuing creative passions is key to growth.Reflecting on childhood can help shape parenting styles.It's important to model self-care and relaxation for children.

In this powerful  and transformative episode, I welcome back Kristin Revere; doula, educator, and author of Supported: Your Guide to Birth.  Together share our personal experiences for a deeply uplifting conversation on empowered inductions. Kristen shares her personal experience of being induced at 39 weeks due to preeclampsia, and reflects on how it shaped her work supporting other women through birth. I share my experience of listening to my intuition and delaying an induction for 5 weeks, until I was 41 weeks, when I had to fully step into my power, to surrender to a deeply beautiful birth. Together, we unpack the alarmingly rising rates of induction, the often untapped role of doulas, birth coaches, and the ability to access our deep inner wisdom of birth. All the essential tools every woman and birth partner should have — including breathing, advocacy, and knowing when to pause. So whether you're planning an induction or supporting someone who is, this episode is full of practical insights and heartfelt support. You've got this! Connect with Kirstin on:

Care teaches engaging, partner-friendly online classes that have helped many families prepare for birth with more clarity and confidence.We get into what it means to prepare early, why most women don't realize how much choice they actually have, and what it looks like to create a safe, grounded birth experience inside a hospital system.

Would you like access to our advanced agency training for FREE? https://www.agencymastery360.com/training Are you stuck acting like an order taker instead of leading your clients with strategy? If you want to grow an agency that survives the competition, you need to do more than deliver pretty websites or manage ad budgets. You need to lead with strategy, prove it with data, and guide your clients through the journey—not the other way around. Too many agencies are still making decisions based on “gut feelings” instead of data, which is why today's featured guest is tackling exactly that problem—making it easier for everyone in a company to use data daily, so decisions are grounded in reality, not instinct. Pete Caputa is the CEO of Databox, a business intelligence platform built for small to mid-market companies that makes data adoption simple across teams. Before that, Pete spent nine years at HubSpot, where he famously launched and scaled the agency partner program—now responsible for billions in revenue. But Pete's journey didn't start in SaaS boardrooms. He began as an engineer, dabbled in early 2000s web apps after learning to code, and struggled through the grind of bootstrapping. his own ventures. A key pivot came when he connected with sales coach Rick Rober, who helped him sharpen his sales chops. That path eventually led him to HubSpot as the fourth sales rep and later, the architect behind the company's groundbreaking agency channel. In this episode, we'll discuss: Creating the HubSpot Agency Partner Program. Why agencies need to lead with strategy. AI as the new strategic edge. Selling strategy as a service.

The Birth of the HubSpot Agency Partner Program Early HubSpot sales conversations looked familiar to many agency owners: lots of free education, lots of excitement… and lots of ghosting. Agencies wanted to roll HubSpot out to their clients, but deals rarely closed. Pete recognized the deeper problem —agencies were stuck in project-based work and living on the cash flow rollercoaster. So he set out to teach agencies to package ongoing retainers instead of chasing one-off projects. That simple but powerful shift unlocked stability and scale. Agencies suddenly had recurring revenue, longer-term client relationships, and the ability to deliver compounding value. HubSpot, of course, became the backbone of that service delivery. What started as a scrappy idea became a multi-billion-dollar channel—and one of the most successful agency programs in SaaS history. Leaving HubSpot As HubSpot scaled, so did its internal politics. Pete found himself in the middle of a growing conflict between the direct sales team and the partner channel. Instead of collaborating, the two operated like competing businesses, often clashing at the deal level. Pete saw a solution, but realized implementing it would be painful in company scaling that fast. He eventually stepped away, even though he was responsible for nearly 40% of HubSpot's revenue at the time. “It got harder to get things done,” he admitted—proof that what works in a startup culture doesn't always survive as companies mature. The Evolving Challenges for Agencies Back in the early 2000s, agencies had to convince clients digital marketing was worth investing in. SEO, social, and funnels were foreign concepts for most businesses. Agencies had to sell belief before they could sell retainers. Today, the problem isn't buy-in—it's competition. Businesses now see digital as essential, but agencies are often commoditized into executing tactics. Instead of being trusted advisors, many find themselves replaceable—either by freelancers, in-house hires, or other agencies that “do the same thing cheaper.” The risk is clear: if you're not leading clients strategically, you're just a vendor waiting to be swapped out. Agencies Need to Lead With Strategy Most agencies claim to do strategy, but really, they only use it to justify selling a tactic. Redesigning a website? They'll run some quick competitor research. Launching content marketing? They'll whip up a persona doc. But that's not strategy—it's sales collateral. Pete is now working on a framework he calls Predictable Scale. It starts with true strategy: competitive research, customer research, defining vision and mission, and setting clear objectives. Only then do tactics come into play. Most agencies don't put these together in the right sequence and, as a result, get pushed in to executing tactics. For agencies, this is the key to breaking out of the execution box and earning a permanent seat at the table. AI as the New Strategic Edge These days, agencies can leverage AI to accelerate strategy and client service. It can be as simple as using AI to run a SWOT analysis, refine your brand voice, mission and vision, and then taking all the data and use it to create a custom GPT you can run to generate client-facing plans. One mastermind member, Chris Dwyer, took this to the extreme by building a board of AI advisors (finance, marketing, sales, and acquisitions) and saw incredible growth as a result. Pete's team has also dabbled in this use of AI and created a custom GPT called Pete GPT. They feed in customer interviews, surveys, and Pete's own writing so the tool can generate content in his voice. Beyond content, AI is speeding up product feedback loops. By connecting call transcripts, chat logs, and support tickets, his product team can instantly spot customer needs and prioritize features—a process that used to take weeks of interviews. Pete also has an AI agent that handles about 50% of his agency's conversations with prospects and clients, with a customer satisfaction score of 70% so far. For agencies, the message is clear: if you're not already embedding AI into your workflows, you're falling behind. Onboarding and Client Retention Still Matter Most Not everything should be automated, however, especially when it comes to onboarding. Onboarding can make or break a client relationship in the first 60 days. Too many agencies rely entirely on Zoom and automation, missing the opportunity to build true connection. “No one meets with clients in person anymore,” he said, and it's costing them. Some of the most successful agencies in Jason's mastermind make it a priority to visit new clients in person during the first quarter. That small gesture builds trust, creates deeper bonds, and makes it much harder for clients to churn later. With competition as fierce as it is, going the extra mile in onboarding may be the simplest competitive advantage agencies can claim. Selling Strategy as a Service Pete wrapped up the conversation by introducing Databox's new program for agencies: business intelligence as a service. Until now, most agencies used Databox to report on campaign performance. But Pete sees a bigger opportunity—helping agencies package BI consulting as a strategic service. Instead of being the vendor that just improves ad ROAS or runs SEO reports, agencies can step up as partners who improve an entire company's performance. That means quarterly reviews looking not just at marketing metrics, but at sales, ops, finance, and customer success data too. For agencies tired of being “order takers,” this is the chance to finally sell strategy over tactics—and get paid for it. Do You Want to Transform Your Agency from a Liability to an Asset?

Ep 156 Description:  "You birth the way you live. This is key." —Anna Lundqvist What if the very thing you've been taught to fear about birth could actually be powerful—even pleasurable? If you've ever wondered why your desires for a calm, connected, or sacred birth feel "too much" or "too radical," you're not alone. In a world where women are told to numb, silence, and surrender their bodies to systems, reclaiming joy in birth isn't just brave—it's revolutionary and rebellious. Anna Lundqvist is a former midwife and the founder of Sacred Birth International, where she mentors birth workers and empowers women through education on physiological, sacred birth. With decades of experience witnessing both clinical and intuitive birth practices, Anna offers grounded, spiritual insight into how women can birth with sovereignty and sensuality. Her global perspective and deep reverence for the feminine make this episode a transformative deep dive into what's possible when we invite pleasure into the birth space. Ready to challenge the narrative and rewrite your own birth story? Hit play to hear how reclaiming pleasure, presence, and power can change everything—from the way you prepare for birth to the way you meet your baby.

Nutan L Pandit has been teaching birth preparation since 1978.Back then, the Indian birth scene was very different. Nutan aunty gave birth using breathwork taught by a foreigner — so calmly, in fact, that the nurses were shocked she was already pushing while chatting!

Her doctor, Dr. Jay Dhurandar, was part of a system that wasn't yet afraid of birth the way it often is today.This episode dives into the massive changes Nutan ji has seen over 40+ years of her work.We talk about:Birth: then vs. nowOverinformation — helpful or harmful?The real fear behind childbirthDo babies feel trauma during birth?How birth shapes a baby's early experienceWhat can truly improve birth for women?About the GuestNutan L Pandit is the author of 4 books (one translated into 2 languages). Everything she teaches stems from her own joyful experience of birthing and breastfeeding her two children.She's a founding member of Birthing The New Humanity (BTNH) and has spoken at Fortis La Femme, FOGSI, Fernandez Hospital, and more — including appearances on Doordarshan, NDTV, and international conferences like the Asia Pacific Midwifery Conference and State University of New York Conference.Sign up for The Free Birth GuideSupport the showSign up for Childbirth Preparation Programs! visit https://birthagni.com/services#childbirth-preparation-programs https://birthagni.com/copy-of-services#breastfeeding-preparation-program This episode is supported and made possible by podcast recording and hosting tool Zencastr, it is impeccably made!

In this rerun of the Midwifery Wisdom Podcast, Augustine sits down with Elke and Charlotte to tackle a timely question: how does technology help—or hinder—midwifery practice? From cybersecurity risks and data privacy to the practical tools shaping daily care, the conversation dives deep into both the promises and pitfalls of modern tech.You'll hear candid stories about electronic charting, breaches, and the financial risks small practices face, balanced with a hopeful look at innovations like handheld ultrasounds, continuous glucose monitors, and integrated lab tools. The trio also explores how midwives can harness social media and AI—like ChatGPT—to expand influence, streamline documentation, and amplify their voices in a system that too often silences them.Whether you're tech-curious, tech-cautious, or somewhere in between, this discussion reminds us that while technology can never replace the human essence of midwifery, it can support us in practicing more safely, efficiently, and visibly.Interested in learning more? Augustine will be teaching a course on AI and Midwives at this year's WARM conference. Sign up on our website www.midwiferywisdom.com

When we think about the founding of the United States, we often focus on the Constitution, the Founding Fathers, and those first landmark elections. But how did the United States actually build its federal government, the entire apparatus of state that could collect revenue, manage international diplomacy, provide law and order, and extend its reach across a rapidly expanding nation? Who were the people who made that government work? And how did their service to the nation shape what it meant to be an American citizen? Peter Kastor, a Professor of History and American Cultural Studies at Washington University in St. Louis, and the Founder of the Creating a Federal Government, 1789-1829 digital project, joins us to explore the remarkable and often overlooked story of how the United States built its federal government between 1789 and 1829.

Ten years after it started, It's time to say good night to Nighttime! but this isn't a goodbye Its hosts, its contributors, its active series (like Keep Canada Weird) aren't going anywhere. The podcast feeds, the social media pages, and related landing pads will be updated to serve as home for a new show that will be similar in style and spirit, but better equipped to tell Canada's most fascinating stories for the next decade and beyond. the next chapter is… the Canadian Gothic Learn more about your ad choices.

Social media vs. mainstream media: How local news and social platforms are increasingly setting the narrative, challenging traditional media gatekeepers, and holding institutions accountable.

Family and financial planning: Insights into prioritizing children, marriage, and financial independence, and how conservative families are navigating these life choices successfully.

Key takeaways: Understanding the birth rate crisis and ideological divide in family formation. How media and social platforms influence political narratives and public perception.

Pregnancy and childbirth are filled with important decisions, and sometimes the advice you receive from your OB/GYN or midwife can feel overwhelming—or incomplete. In this episode of True Birth, we take an honest look at when and why you might consider seeking a second opinion during pregnancy or for birth planning. A second opinion is not about questioning your provider's expertise—it's about ensuring you have the full picture before making decisions that impact your health and your baby's well-being. We discuss situations where a second opinion can be especially valuable: when facing a major intervention such as induction, cesarean birth, or surgery; when you're given limited options; or when your instincts tell you something doesn't feel right. We'll explore how different providers approach issues like VBAC (vaginal birth after cesarean), high-risk pregnancy management, and birth preferences, and why those perspectives can vary. Just as importantly, we share practical tips on how to approach the process: how to ask for your records, how to frame the conversation, and how to choose the right expert for a balanced perspective. Our goal is to empower you to feel confident, informed, and supported in your care. Remember: seeking a second opinion is your right, not a sign of mistrust. It's one of the best ways to advocate for yourself and ensure you're making decisions aligned with your values and goals. Tune in as we unpack real scenarios and offer guidance on making the second-opinion process respectful, productive, and ultimately reassuring—for a healthier pregnancy and a birth experience that feels right for you.     Don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe—your questions could be featured in our next episode!
