We are all born. Birth is the story of all of us. So why aren't we more curious about its history? That's what historian Lucy Inglis wanted to know. She's spent 15 years researching birth – around the globe, and across the centuries. “When you go into labour, you are a ship on the sea," says Inglis, referring to an ancient Assyrian chant acknowledging the physical perils of giving birth. While medical advances and greater freedom of choice inform birth in countries like England and Canada today, her book Born: A History of Childbirth argues that birth has a deep global history that proves it has always been a highwire act, shaped by both nature and culture. IDEAS explores the visceral, intimate realities of childbirth that have always been in evidence.

In this episode, I speak with Dr. Nathan Riley about how modern systems shape pregnancy and birth — not just medically, but psychologically and culturally.This conversation isn't about rebellion or nostalgia. It's about responsibility, trust, and what happens when we're trained to hand those over.We talk about natural birth, home birth, and the power of doing less instead of more. C-section rates keep climbing and fear is introduced early through institutional rituals. Education, compliance, and credentialed authority train us to outsource knowing, especially during pregnancy and birth. From midwifery to birth trauma, from holistic health to reclaiming responsibility, this conversation connects dots most people never think to question.If you're interested in birth sovereignty, health sovereignty, and the deeper implications of how humans enter the world, this episode will challenge you.

A woman who births a child contracts impurity! Why?And she has to bring a sin offering?What sin did she incur?We will frame this episode in the broader framework of these chapters, which will go some way to answering these questions.

In this meeting of The Late Diagnosis Club, Dr Angela Kingdon welcomes George Watts, a neurodivergent researcher, parent, and PhD candidate whose path into autism research began before realising they were autistic themselves.George first studied autism from the outside, absorbing dominant behavioural frameworks and evidence-based models that promised to “help” Autistic people. It wasn't until they encountered Autistic voices, community, and their own reflection in the literature that their understanding — and their life — fundamentally shifted.Together, Angela and George explore late identification, burnout, childbirth, internalised deficit models, the harm of behaviourism, and what becomes possible when Autistic people stop being studied in isolation and start building community together. This episode centres Autistic quality of life — not as an abstract metric, but as a lived, relational experience grounded in belonging, autonomy, and joy.

Long before labor begins, the stories we hear about birth are already shaping our expectations and choices. In this episode, Dr. Rebecca Dekker talks with Lisa Greaves Taylor, founder of Birth Matters NYC Childbirth Education, director of the East River Doula Collective, and host of the Birth Matters podcast, about the power of birth stories as tools for education, healing, and self-advocacy.   Drawing from her work supporting families in New York City since 2010, Lisa shares how storytelling helps birthing people move beyond fear-based narratives and reconnect with their intuition, confidence, and voice. Together, Rebecca and Lisa explore the realities of giving birth in NYC—including high rates of induction, limited access to midwifery and birth centers, and postpartum support gaps—while also highlighting reasons for hope, advocacy, and change. They also talk about how birth stories can support preparation during pregnancy, help process trauma after difficult births, and empower families navigating VBAC, repeat pregnancies, and systemic barriers to evidence-based care.   (02:51) What drew Lisa to childbirth education and doula work (07:45) Giving birth in NYC then vs. now (09:07) The evidence-practice gap in New York City maternity care (15:02) Postpartum care challenges and lactation support gaps (18:05) The role of midwives in improving birth experiences (23:47) How storytelling activates intuition and self-advocacy (28:15) When birth stories can be harmful and how to curate wisely (35:34) Trauma, dissociation, and the importance of processing birth (42:18) What gives Lisa hope for the future of birth work (46:28) Stories, Education, and Support   Resources Learn more about Lisa Birth Matters NYC: birthmattersnyc.com Birth Matters Podcast: birthmattersnyc.com/podcast East River Doula Collective: eastriverdoulas.nyc Instagram: @birthmattersnyc Ina May's Guide to Childbirth by Ina May Gaskin: share.libbyapp.com/title/5017296 The Story Factor by Annette Simmons: annettesimmons.com/the-story-factor/ The Evidence on: Induction or Cesarean for a Big Baby EBB 311 – Creating a Community-Led Birth Center in New York City with Myla Flores of the Womb Bus   Organizations & Advocates Mentioned Ancient Song Doula Services: ancientsongdoulaservices.com Chanel Porchia-Albert: chanelporchia.com Jennie Joseph: jenniejoseph.com Kimberly Seals Allers: kimberlysealsallers.com Michelle Browder: ebbirth.com/274 For more information about Evidence Based Birth® and a crash course on evidence based care, visit www.ebbirth.com.

While evolution is often thought to be conducive to perfect adaptation, there are plenty of reasons why we never get there. Laurence D. Hurst is a professor of evolutionary genetics in the Milner Centre for Evolution at the University of Bath. His book, The Evolution of Imperfection: The Science of Why We Aren't and Can't Be Perfect is an expansive look into the imperfections of the human genome and why humans seem to be predisposed to so much bad genetic luck. Laurence and Greg explore the evolutionary constraints that lead to imperfections, how population size affects mutation rates, the advancements in gene therapy, and why imperfection could be key to a deeper understanding of evolution. *unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.*Episode Quotes:Why humans have such bad genetic luck07:13: We have good reason to think that humans are far from being as fit as they might be. We have a very high mutation rate. We've got one of the highest mutation rates going, for example, and most mutations are deleterious.

The Free Birth Society (FBS) is a multimillion-dollar business that promotes the idea of women giving birth with no medical assistance. Now, a year-long Guardian investigation has revealed the FBS has been linked to baby deaths around the world. Mothers lost children after being radicalised by uplifting podcast tales of births without midwives or doctors, all while influencers made millions pushing so-called ‘wild' births. Investigations correspondent Sirin Kale speaks to Reged Ahmad about why so many women find the claims made by the Free Birth Society so appealing but why medical experts say they are dangerous

In the summer of 2000 while in labor with her daughter, Krista's heart stopped for eight minutes. Her soul transitioned to the afterlife where she experienced indescribable love, had all her life's questions answered, encountered spirit beings, and other beings who gave her the choice to return with the condition of sharing what she'd learned there with others. Using the knowledge she was given, Krista created Twelve Principles, which helped her reconnect with the essence of who she was in the afterlife, and embody it here, in this life. They enabled her to live as the love she knew herself to be. Her own transformation affected all those around her as well. Krista shares the Twelve Principles For Daily Living which are what she practices to realign herself with the divine love she was in the afterlife. When practiced on a daily basis, they truly have the potential to create a heaven on earth.BioKrista Gorman is a Physician Assistant who, only three weeks after graduating from her PA training program, suffered cardiopulmonary arrest and died while in labor with her daughter. During the eight minutes she was without a detectable heartbeat, her consciousness transitioned into what we call the afterlife, where she underwent a profound reconnection with a most Divine love that she experienced as the Universe. It is a love that we are seamless with, the love we are in our very essence.Krista is an active member of the International Association for Near Death Studies (IANDS) and presented at their 2014 and 2015 annual conferences. She has also presented at the 2016 and 2017 conferences alongside her husband, Ainsley Threadgold. Some of her story and the lessons she learned in the afterlife are shared in her book, I Died And Learned How To Live, available on Amazon.Her NDE account is also featured in The Transformative Effects of Near Death Experiences by Dr. Penny Sartori and Kelly Walsh as well as the book Awakened By Death by Karen Swain and Cyrus Kirkpatrick. In 2017 she and her daughter were featured on the program Story Of God With Morgan Freeman on the National Geographic Channel episode entitled Heaven AndHell. This episode is also available to view on Netflix.In addition, Krista speaks both formally and informally to various groups, including sharing the stage with her husband at Edgar Cayce's Association for Research and Enlightenment in Virginia Beach, Spirit University in Sarasota, Florida and Blissful Beginnings in St. Petersburg, Florida.

It's Tuesday, December 16th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson Chinese Communists arrested 18 pastors over evangelism online Chinese Pastor Ezra Jin and 17 other pastors have been arrested by Chinese Communist authorities on charges of using illegal information networks. Translation? Putting the Gospel message on Zoom is now illegal in China.   The pastors are facing three years in prison.   A pastor's wife described the situation on the Christian Broadcasting Network. WIFE: “China opened the door for the Western society and then grow their economy. I grew up from that period of time. So, I thought we weren't gonna be put in jail because of our Christianity or our faith.” Chinese officials convicted liberty advocate Jimmy Lai Not surprisingly, those Chinese communists have convicted Hong Kong's pro-liberty advocate, Jimmy Lai, with conspiracy to collude with foreign forces. It's a charge that could put him in prison for life. This was the highest profile case since Hong Kong was turned over to the communists in 1997, and Hong Kong's democratic elections halted in 2020. China to eliminate out-of-pocket expenses for childbirth China is planning to eliminate all out-of-pocket medical costs for childbirth with the hopes of encouraging more births. China's fertility rate is dismal, hovering around 1.0. In fact, Chinese deaths have outnumbered births for three years in a row now. The countries with the lowest fertility rates in the world are Hong Kong, China, Taiwan, South Korea, Singapore, Ukraine, and Chile. Two Muslim men killed 16 Jews in Sydney, Australia On Sunday, two Muslim men, a father and son, have been identified as suspects in the killings of 16 people at a Jewish celebration of Hannukah in Sydney, Australia on Bondi Beach, reports the Associated Press. That's the worst mass shooting in Australia since the Port Arthur massacre of 1996 where 35 people were killed and 23 were injured. Providentially, a bystander of Muslim background, 43-year-old Syrian fruit shop owner, Ahmed Al-Ahmed, happened on the scene. He tackled and disarmed one of the gunmen during the deadly massacre, preventing further carnage.  Ahmed was shot in the shoulder and arm while hiding behind a tree after confronting the gunman. Australia's Prime Minister Anthony Albanese is promising “tougher gun laws” in response. Actor Rob Reiner and wife allegedly killed by son Director and actor Rob Reiner and his wife Michele were found dead Sunday, apparent victims of foul play at their home in Los Angeles, reports The L.A. Times. Sadly, Rob Reiner was an atheist, as was his father, Carl Reiner — another famous movie director.   Rob Reiner will be best remembered in the political realm for his leftist views, especially in his opposition to California's Proposition 8, and efforts to introduce homosexual marriage to the state and the country. At last report, Rob and Michele's son Nick, age 32, has been taken into custody by the Los Angeles Police Department, charged with the murder of his parents. He has a long history of drug addiction. Exodus 21:15 speaks to this sort of crime, as do Jesus's words in Matthew 15:4: “And he who strikes his father or his mother shall surely be put to death.” Little Sisters of the Poor vs. Obamacare continues After 14 years, Little Sisters of the Poor, comprised of Roman Catholic nuns, continues to object to the Obamacare mandate to provide coverage for abortifacients for their organization.    Back on July 8, 2020, the Supreme Court ruled 7–2 in favor of the Little Sisters, upholding federal rules that exempted religious organizations from the contraceptive mandate. But now, Pennsylvania and New Jersey have refused to drop their efforts to take away the Little Sisters' protection in the lower courts. Last August, a rogue federal district court in Philadelphia ruled against the Little Sisters and vacated the religious exemption rules that had protected them.  The case is in appeal to the Third Circuit Court. Bill Clinton unresponsive to Congressional subpoena over Epstein GOP House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer announced he will initiate contempt of Congress proceedings against Bill and Hillary Clinton. At issue is the Clintons' decision to ignore the committee's subpoenas issued back in August, in relation to investigations of the Jeffrey Epstein sex trafficking scandal. Epstein visited the White House 17 times in 1993 after Bill Clinton's inauguration. Artificial Intelligence: Time Magazine's “Person of the Year” Time Magazine's Person of the Year goes to Artificial Intelligence or rather, the architects of AI. Spending on Artificial Intelligence development has increased from $40 billion to $400 billion in just the last ten years.  Nvidia's stock has increased 60-fold, while Microsoft and Alphabet, Inc. have increased 7-fold over the same timeframe. Kirk Cameron advocates unbiblical theology of annihilationism Actor and Christian celebrity Kirk Cameron suggested in his recent podcast that hell is not forever — a departure from the long-held position of an eternal punishment for those who do not trust Christ, reports The Christian Post. CAMERON: “Eternal judgment or eternal punishment doesn't necessarily mean that we are being tormented and punished forever and ever, every moment for eternity. It means that the punishment we deserve is irreversible. It's permanent; it's eternal. You're dead. You've been destroyed. You have perished. You're gone, and you're never coming back.” This theological position is called annihilationism, a belief that all damned humans and fallen angels – including demons and Satan -- will be totally destroyed and their consciousness extinguished. CAMERON: “I actually think this is a really good argument for annihilationism. Just because the righteous go to eternal life, which is the gift of God, not that the wicked are granted an eternity of punishment. The punishment of the wicked is final. It is irreversible.” Rev. Al Mohler, President of Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky, called the admission “sad.” And in his words: “The admonition to confess Christ or risk non-existence just doesn't pass the New Testament test, and there is a good reason it doesn't work in a sermon either. The stakes are just too low, and the fires of hell hold no eternal consequence.” At the final judgment, as recorded in Matthew 25: 41-43, Jesus said to those on His left hand: “Depart from Me, you cursed, into the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels: for I was hungry and you gave Me no food; I was thirsty and you gave Me no drink; I was a stranger and you did not take Me in, naked and you did not clothe Me, sick and in prison and you did not visit Me.' … And these will go away into everlasting punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.” Imprisoned fathers reunited with daughters at dance And finally, the “God Behind Bars” organization links local churches to prisons, and reunites families, especially children with their incarcerated parents or grandparents.   This Christmas season, the organization sponsored its first Father-Daughter Dance at the Angola Louisiana State Penitentiary.    Twenty-nine fathers were reunited with their daughters that night, many of whom had not seen their daughters for years — some over a decade. The ministry calls these events "moments of restoration … and the Gospel in motion."

The rate of women who die during childbirth is alarmingly high in parts of the Pacific.  According to World Population Review, the rate of maternal mortality in Papua New Guinea is 192 deaths in every 100,000 live births.  That's compared with a country like Australia, which is just three in every 100,000 births. The reasons for these deaths vary from geographic barriers and lack of medical services to cultural barriers.  However, measures are being taken to address this limitation and help save the lives of women in the Pacific. Sistas Let's Talk host Natasha Meten speaks to Marshall Islands health secretary Francyne Wase-Jacklick, Stevie Merino-Mesa from the Birthworkers of Colour Collective and midwife Cherolyn Polomon who started a Whatsapp group for hundreds of Papua New Guinea's health workers to collaborate about maternal health.

Narrator: Thomas Jones

In this episode, Dr. Rebecca Dekker explores the research on birthing positions and tried-and-true midwifery practices for protecting the perineum during childbirth. She explains why the flat-on-your-back position we often see on television isn't ideal and walks through the key differences between upright, sacrum-flexible positions, and common hospital practices like lithotomy and routine episiotomies.   Dr. Dekker reviews data from global research as well as real-world wisdom from midwives, including the extraordinary outcomes of hands-off, undisturbed birth approaches in the Philippines.

Series: Human Rights in Birth— Birth Options  "Birth is a powerful moment of human life. It deserves the care that honors your rights, your choices, and your profound capacity for strength, trust, and pleasure." —Debra Pascali-Bonaro   Ep 168 Description:    Every birth tells a story, but too often those stories are shaped by fear, misinformation, or lack of choice. Respectful, informed, and pleasure-aware care can change the way we experience birth. Autonomy and knowledge are as vital as safety. In this episode, Debra shares insights from her recent travels to Japan and highlights a powerful open letter from UK midwives, showing how human rights in childbirth can transform care. She unpacks why pleasure, anatomy education, and self-advocacy must be part of every conversation. Press play to rethink birth and explore how care can honor the whole person: Topics discussed: Human rights in childbirth and why they matter Integrating pleasure into birth experiences Anatomy, sexual education, and empowerment Navigating medical interventions with knowledge How culture, providers, and self-advocacy shape outcomes   Connect with Debra!

What does it take to lead with both purpose and perseverance? In this episode of Legendary Leaders, host Cathleen O'Sullivan sits down with Kate Grant—CEO of the Fistula Foundation and author of No Woman Left Behind—whose remarkable journey from Madison Avenue to global health leadership reveals what can happen when compassion meets conviction.    Kate shares how walking away from a thriving advertising career became the first step toward transforming the lives of more than 100,000 women suffering from obstetric fistula—a preventable childbirth injury that still affects over a million women in the world's most underserved regions. With honesty and humility, she opens up about redefining success, the courage it takes to stay focused on one mission, and how saying "no" to good ideas is often the price of real impact. Cathleen O'Sullivan (Merkel)   Together, Cathleen and Kate explore the intersection of leadership, purpose, and humanity—what it means to build something that lasts, lead with heart, and never look away from the people and problems that need us most. This conversation is for anyone who believes leadership is less about power and more about the lives we choose to touch.     Episode Timeline:   00:03:34 What is obstetric fistula and why it still exists  00:07:39 The devastating social cost: ostracism, shame, and isolation  00:16:21 A survivor's story: 30 years of suffering and the gift of a chicken  00:28:30 Building a global network: from one hospital to 35 countries  00:33:12 The fundraising approach: efficiency, focus, and saying no  00:38:25 Ensuring quality: working with expert surgeons and measuring outcomes  00:47:15 Leaving Madison Avenue: when success isn't enough  00:53:05 The earthquake and breakup that cracked everything open  01:03:11 Redefining success: career, motherhood, and the myth of having it all  01:10:00 What's next: stepping down and training as a therapist  01:19:16 Final wisdom: listen to your inner voice and own your choices     Key Takeaway:   A Hidden Crisis with a Solution: Obstetric fistula—a childbirth injury from obstructed labor—affects at least one million women in Africa and Asia, leaving them incontinent and ostracized. Yet 90% of cases are fixable with surgery, making this needless suffering Kate refuses to accept. Relentless Focus Drives Impact: The Fistula Foundation does one thing exceptionally well—funding surgeries—and has helped over 100,000 women by resisting mission creep, measuring outcomes rigorously, and treating the nonprofit like a results-driven business. Listen to Your Inner Voice: Kate left a successful advertising career after travel exposed her to global poverty and an earthquake cracked her life open—proving that transformation requires quieting external voices and giving your own inner compass a microphone. Empowerment Through Accountability: When problems arise, assume you created them—not to blame yourself, but to empower yourself to learn and fix what's broken rather than playing victim to circumstances or other people. You Can't Have It All at Once: Success means making intentional choices about where to invest finite energy—Kate chose her son and the foundation over remarriage, showing that owning your trade-offs without apology is more honest than pretending you can do everything equally well.     About Kate Grant:   Kate Grant is a global health and social-impact leader with over 25 years of experience advancing maternal health and women's rights worldwide. As President & CEO of Fistula Foundation, she has expanded access to life-changing surgeries for thousands of women across Africa and Asia while building high-performing teams and partnerships with governments and NGOs. She is also the author of No Woman Left Behind – A Journey of Hope to Heal Every Woman Injured in Childbirth, a memoir highlighting her journey from a corporate career to leading a global health movement. Known for her equity-focused, collaborative leadership, Kate's mission is to ensure every woman has the opportunity to live a healthy, dignified life.     Connect with Kate Grant: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kate-grant-92110561/  Website: https://fistulafoundation.org/  No Woman Left Behind (Book): https://fistulafoundation.org/no-woman-left-behind/      Connect with Cathleen O'Sullivan:  Business: https://cathleenosullivan.com/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cathleen-osullivan/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/legendary_leaders_cathleenos/      FOLLOW LEGENDARY LEADERS ON APPLE, SPOTIFY OR WHEREVER YOU LISTEN TO YOUR PODCASTS  

Misoprostol, as an E1 prostaglandin, is primarily used in obstetrics for cervical ripening (when the Bishop Score is under 6) and/or for labor INDUCTION (to begin labor). IV oxytocin is the principal agent used to augmentlabor, as needed, once labor has begun. In the US, misoprostol is not typically used after 4-6 cm cervical dilation. However, in a patient who requires augmentation,and who declines Pitocin while asking or oral misoprostol, can that be used? Is that evidence-based? The data may surprise you.

Episode: 2018 The Chamberlen family secret: the invention of forceps.  Today, guest historian Cathy Patterson reveals family secrets.

In celebration of the 2nd year Anniversary of the Dr Sophia, ObGyn podcast, my co-host Touseef Mirza is sharing her favorite episode from the last year “Childbirth and vaginal / vulva tears.” In this episode we talk about how childbirth is viewed as a beautiful and spectacular phenomenon. And that at the same time, women need to also know the full scope of normal changes and potential physiological complications that can happen to their vagina and vulva during vaginal delivery. In this episode, we talk about the amazingness of the vagina and what it's able to do during childbirth, the different types of potential vaginal and vulva tears that can occur, what physicians can do to avoid the severity of vaginal / vulva tears or lacerations, etc. I am joined with my co-host and good friend, Touseef Mirza.

In today's insightful episode, we dive into the importance of pelvic floor health with Dr. Marina Magri. Together, we explore common misconceptions and challenges many women face, particularly during and after pregnancy. We talk about the crucial role of awareness and education in preventing and managing pelvic floor dysfunction, including issues like incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse. Dr. Marina shares her journey into specialising in pelvic health and why she's passionate about helping women understand their bodies better. We unpack how factors such as stress, pregnancy, and training techniques can impact pelvic floor function, and why proper guidance and support are key to long-term health. We also discuss how to prepare for labour, understand pelvic dynamics, and separate fact from fiction when it comes to pelvic floor training. This episode is all about empowering women with the knowledge and confidence to take proactive steps, from incorporating pelvic floor exercises to seeking professional help when needed, so we can all support better pelvic health, education, and awareness.

Orgasmic Birth Story Series  Ep 162 Description:  "Try and change your mindset, because we're taught that birth is painful and hard and scary and can't be fun." —Tara Muckerheide    Vaginal Birth After Cesarean (VBAC) is more than a medical choice—it's a profound journey of bodily autonomy and healing. Every woman's birth story carries the potential to rewrite medical narratives that have historically limited her agency.  Tara Muckerheide transformed her birth experiences from medical trauma to empowered motherhood, challenging medical assumptions after two cesarean sections. Through midwifery care and a deep commitment to understanding her body, she successfully achieved two transformative vaginal births, proving that women's birthing experiences can be reclaimed and redefined. Tune in as Debra and Tara dive deep into a raw, inspiring conversation exploring pleasure-centered birthing, midwifery support, overcoming medical trauma, the power of mindset, partner involvement, and strategies for creating a joyful, empowering birth experience.   Connect with Debra!
