Your body has the answers, the wisdom is within you. In today's episode, I invite doula coach and educator Ivy Joeva to share her experiences and wisdom about the journey to parenthood and her passion as a guide for fertility, vitality, and empowered births. We dive into topics of how to baby-proof your relationship, dealing with changes in libido during and after pregnancy (for both the women and their partners!), and how conception, pregnancy, and birth can be a gateway to deeper healing.
We get deep into:
- Ivy's journey to becoming a doula and the transformation in her life from her work
- The ripple effects of her maternal grandmother's birthing experience and how past traumas can affect your journey to parenthood
- How traditional talk therapy can sometimes fall short (and how Ivy supports her clients move through layers of grief)
- Why relationship to self is so VITAL during this journey
- Some helpful practices for couples to stay connected during pregnancy and postpartum
- Orgasmic birth and what you can do to achieve this powerful experience
- Why some male partners lose libido during or after pregnancy
- And so much more!
