“This [orgasmic birth] is not a luxury. It is a necessity, and it is your right to claim for it.”

Welcome to episode 118

Giving birth is not a solitary experience— it is a sacred rite of passage that women have traditionally shared with a community of support. Far from a luxury, this communal approach to childbirth is a necessity for women to reclaim the pleasure, power, and joy inherent in the birthing process.

Mahika’s journey is a testament to the transformative potential of an empowered birth experience. After welcoming her daughter with the guidance of a doula, Mahika felt inspired to become a passionate birth worker herself, dedicated to empowering other women on their path to motherhood.

In this episode, Mahika shares her journey from a birth mom to a birth doula, how she created an orgasmic birth for herself, the role of tapping into the innate wisdom of the female body, the power of finding a supportive community, tips on preparing for a pleasurable orgasmic birth, plus much more.

what past particpants are saying...

“What you will receive is far beyond what is written on the curriculum the camaraderie with women from all around the world. This is definitely an advanced doula training. I would, I just think that there are so many facets to it, and tools that I have gained that I will walk with for the rest of my life. There are so many relationships that I have now cultivated so many connections, even even to myself work that I have places that I found myself questioning. How can I be a better doula? How can I serve more fully? How can I take care of myself within my practice?”

“It’s been really special for me. I was not aware of the power of the international community of doulas and birth workers and I really felt that this week. I really felt that we are not only sharing the same vocation, but we also are all activists and sisters and really mothers of life.”
-Eva Luna
“I would say just do it! Bali is a magical place and the EPD teachers are an incredible source of knowledge. We are blessed to have the opportunity to learn from them. You will leave inspired, transformed, loved, and you will gain new sisters all over the world! I cannot recommend it enough! “
