Ep 152 Description:

"It didn't feel like it was ever bigger than me because it was coming from me. It was hard, but I could do it, which was such a powerful feeling to have afterwards, where I was like, ‘oh my god, like I could do anything!’" —Estefany Angeles

What if birth could feel less like a medical procedure and more like a love story?

So many parents are told to brace for pain, control their bodies, and power through—but what if the journey could be sacred, intimate, and even blissful? It’s time to challenge the stories we’ve inherited and reclaim birth as an experience of connection, power, and pleasure.

Drawing from her Dominican roots and her own transformative birth experiences, Birth A Mi Manera Founder, Estefany Angeles, blends cultural tradition with evidence-based care to help families embrace autonomy and joy in childbirth. Her perspective brings a rare and refreshing vision of birth that celebrates both the body’s wisdom and the soul’s longing for connection.

Hit play to hear practical ways to invite pleasure, intimacy, and presence into labor, reclaim cultural wisdom, and weave joy into childbirth education and doula care.
