Ep 149 Description:

"Women have the power to transform this world. If we really want to save our world and bring peace and prosperity, and harmony, we need to go the mother's way away from this male-dominated mode, which is not working. Let's save the world one orgasm at a time." —Ibu Robin Lim

Have you ever wondered about the untold stories hidden within the most intimate part of a woman's body? What secrets lie beneath the surface of our most misunderstood and often silenced anatomical landscape? The Yoni is more than just a physical space—it's a powerful narrative of strength, pleasure, and ancestral wisdom.

Ibu Robin Lim is a CNN Hero and internationally renowned midwife who has delivered over 16,000 babies across disaster zones in Indonesia and The Philippines. With decades of experience and a passion for women's reproductive health, she brings revolutionary insights into female sexuality, childbirth, and holistic wellness.

Tune in as Debra and Ibu Robin shatter taboos, celebrate female anatomy, and explore how understanding our Yonis can unlock personal healing, challenge societal norms, and ultimately reshape our collective approach to women's health, pleasure, and potential.

Robin Lim is a Filipina-American grandmother, midwife, and founder of Bumi Sehat Foundation, which maintains six clinics in Indonesia and The Philippines. She is an accomplished author, teacher, keynote speaker, 2011 CNN "Hero of the Year," and Ashoka Fellow (a prestigious award for the world's leading social change entrepreneurs).

She is most commonly known in Bali, where Bumi Sehat's headquarters and flagship clinic are located, as simply Ibu ("Mother") Robin. She resides there with her husband, Wil Hemmerle, her 92-year-old mother, Crescenia, and many of her eight children and seven grandchildren.

With a vision to revolutionize birth, peacefully, Ibu Robin founded the Bumi Sehat ("Healthy Mother Earth") Foundation in 1993 to provide birthing services and heal the country's devastatingly high maternal and infant mortality rate. Following the tradition of her own Filipina grandmother, who was a traditional healer and birthkeeper, Ibu Robin became a Certified Professional Midwife and led Bumi Sehat's community health and childbirth clinic.
