Kali Rising: Pleasure, Power & Birth in NYC
with Genevieve
Welcome to Episode 172
In this transformative episode of Orgasmic Birth: The Podcast, Debra Pascali‑Bonaro is joined by bestselling author and pleasure mentor Genevieve for a fierce, tender, and wildly honest story of birthing a 10‑pound baby at home in New York City.
Rooted in years of work with sexuality, domination, and The Orgasmic Arc™, Genevieve entered pregnancy expecting soft, sensual, “bliss‑in‑the‑birth‑pool” vibes—only to meet a very different expression of pleasure: the raw, fiery power of Kali. She shares how her labor moved from serenity and sensual touch into full‑bodied rage, speaking in tongues, drumming, dancing, and primal vocalization, and how claiming that intensity became its own form of deep pleasure and sovereignty.
Genevieve also reflects on how daily pregnancy sex, intentional clitoral stimulation, midwifery support, and trusting her body may have contributed to birthing a 10‑pound baby without tearing, and how pausing, position changes, and unwavering choice shaped her experience. This is a story for anyone who needs permission to birth outside the box—loud, kinky, sacred, and utterly their own.
In this episode you’ll hear:
- How Genevieve’s second birth awakened unexpected Kali energy—fierce, fiery, and wildly pleasurable in its intensity.
- Why pleasure in birth is not always soft and quiet, and how screaming, laughing, and rage can also be pathways to power.
- The role daily sex and embodied pleasure played in her pregnancy, relationship, and possibly in preventing perineal tearing.
- How music, movement, and “having a party” in labor helped her turn a corner and open more fully.
- The subtle, skillful midwifery that navigated a 10‑pound baby, meconium, and a stuck shoulder while preserving Genevieve’s sense of safety and choice.
- Why resting late in pregnancy, honoring intuition, and choosing the right provider can make birth more joyful and empowered.
