Most birth conversations stop in the delivery room. This one starts there and keeps going into lineage, soul contracts, legal personhood, and what happens to a placenta after a hospital birth.
Eyla Cuenca has been present for around 300 births over 15 years. She trains doulas, runs high-impact doula training programs, and works with women on birth trauma that often traces back generations before they were born.
Eyla and I cover what changed for her after birthing her own daughter, the grief that surfaced in labor, and why she stopped participating in the polarity between hospital birth and free birth. We get into the rise of phone addiction in postpartum spaces, what Edward Tronick’s still-face research suggests about a generation of distracted mothers, and the moment Eyla believes the soul anchors fully into the body.
The conversation moves into reincarnation, soul fractals, the Akashic record, and a personal story about how a mushroom ceremony reframed my relationship to past abortions and my own circumcision.
It closes on the legal architecture around the birth certificate, the paperwork mothers sign without reading, and what actually happens to the placenta when a hospital classifies it as "birth waste”.
