    022. Becoming the Parents We Wish We Had w/ Sterna Suissa

    In today’s episode of Born To Know, trauma-informed coach and parenting expert Sterna Suissa shares how parents—often unknowingly—pass down patterns of self-betrayal, shame, and disconnection to their kids. We explore how seemingly small interactions shape whether a child learns to trust themselves or outsource their sense of truth, how you might be unconsciously teaching your kids entitlement, self-sacrifice, and poor boundaries, and why emotional outbursts are invitations for growth for both children and parents.  Whether you're a new parent, you’re knee-deep in teen years, or looking for closure around how you were raised, this conversation will help you foster a more emotionally intelligent relationship with your kids.  Chapters: (00:00:00) Introduction (00:00:53) Rooted in Reality: Sterna Suissa’s Work Reflects Parents' True Experiences (00:01:30) Modern Rites: Helping Youth Transition to Adulthood Without Family Structures (00:04:48) Why Kids Need Many Voices: Building Identity Through Diverse Relationships (00:08:59) Inherited Wounds: How Unresolved Parental Struggles Echo in the Lives of Their Children (00:13:25) The Truth About the Talk: How Lying to Kids About Sex Erodes Trust (00:18:00) When Respect Hurts: How Forced Affection Teaches Children to Betray Their Boundaries (00:23:43) The Backlash of Control: How Undermining a Child’s Autonomy Leads to Disconnection Over Time (00:30:50) Raising Secure Children: How Parent-Child Dynamics Carry Into Adulthood and What You Can Do Today (00:37:00) The Foundation of Trust: Creating Safe Parent-Child Relationships and Guiding Children Toward Discernment (00:44:34) The Strength in Struggle: Why Allowing Children to Face Adversity Builds Resilience (00:48:28) Is Sharing Truly Caring?

    021. Why the 50/50 Model Might be Ruining Your Marriage w/ Rabbi Manis Friedman

    What happens when women stop needing men—but still want love?  In this episode of Born to Know, Eyla Cuenca speaks with Rabbi Manis Friedman about the unspoken truths about modern marriage and relationships. Rabbi Friedman, a renowned author, rabbi, and social philosopher, uncovers how the societal shift towards egalitarianism has distorted marriage, family structures, and how we raise children. You'll learn why 50/50 marriages might be setting couples up for failure and how societal pressure to be “equal” in everything can actually destroy the unique dynamics that make a marriage thrive. Rabbi Friedman reveals the natural, complementary roles of men and women in marriage, and why honoring these roles can restore deeper connection, respect, and intimacy. If you’ve ever felt like something’s missing in your relationship, or if you’re stuck in a cycle of dissatisfaction or unfulfillment in work, partnerships, or purpose, this episode is for you.  Chapters: (00:00:00) Introduction (00:03:13) Marriage Pillars: Self-Dignity, Patterns, and Family Blueprints (00:05:36) How a Child's Blueprint is Shaped by Family and Relationships (00:07:23) The Dance of Life: The Roles of Men and Women in Healthy Relationships (00:12:42) Why 50/50 Relationships Lead to Unhappy Men and Women Struggling to Nurture (00:14:46) The Role of Women at Home and Work: Why They’re Set Up to Fail (00:16:05) Raising Boys to Become Mature, Thriving Men (00:17:52) How Society's Failure to Initiate Boys into Manhood Fosters Weak Men, Gangs, and Paranoia (00:20:37) Emotional and Psychological Differences Between Men and Women: What Each Needs to Feel Whole and Secure (00:25:09) How Mothering and Controlling Your Partner Emasculates Him and Destroys Romance (00:27:18) The Issues with Modern Feminism and How It Creates Hard Women (00:31:12) The True Meaning of Marriage: Why 50/50 Relationships Don’t Work (00:33:41) Why Self-Love is Narcissism and How to Teach Kids the World Doesn't Revolve Around Them (00:35:38) How Modern Isolation Fuels Narcissism and Self-Centered Behaviors (00:37:58) The True Purpose of Marriage vs. the Purpose of Life (00:43:52) How to Curb Self-Indulgence in Children Without Damaging Their Confidence Connect with Rabbi Manis Friedman  Website Instagram Connect with Eyla Cuenca:  Website  Instagram YouTube Connect with Born To Know: Instagram Website Apple Podcasts Spotify Born To Know is created by: Host & Executive Producer: Eyla Cuenca Post-Producer & Editor: Victoria Rondón Simpson  Copywriter: Caty Lee  Graphic & Website Designer: Turbo Rainbow Subscribe to Eyla Cuenca’s YouTube channel for all future Born to Know episodes.

    017. The Living Language of Water: The Links Between Water, Memory & Birth w/ Veda Austin

    Water is more than just H₂O—it holds memory, responds to intention, and may be deeply intertwined with consciousness itself. In this illuminating conversation, Eyla Cuenca sits down with Veda Austin, a leading author, speaker, and researcher in water crystallography, to explore water’s role as a living intelligence and its profound connection to birth, healing, and human consciousness. Veda’s work captures water’s ability to structure itself in response to energy, music, and even human thought. It begs the question: Could your relationship with water be affecting your health and emotions more than you realize?  And taking that one step further, if water holds memory, then so does amniotic fluid. We dive into how water within the body reflects life’s deepest processes—including fertility, birth, pregnancy and even how water communicates ancestral memory. Chapters: (00:00:00) Introduction (00:01:45) How a tragic accident led Veda Austin to discover water’s hidden intelligence (00:16:17) The historical and sacred role of water (00:22:38) Gratitude as a path to healing both contaminated water and ourselves (00:30:38) How body fluids can offer insight into our body's inner workings (00:34:30) The effects of a vasectomy's restriction of bodily fluids on the overall system (00:35:58) Memory and its transmission from mother to child through amniotic fluid (00:56:59) Why the medical system's approach to pregnancy and childbirth is wrong (01:01:28) How water’s fluid intelligence forms a deep connection between mother and child (01:12:28) Why some young children retain memories of past lives Connect with Veda Austin: Website Instagram  Connect with Eyla Cuenca:  Website  Instagram YouTube Connect with Born to Know: Instagram Website Apple Podcasts Spotify Born To Know is created by: Host & Executive Producer: Eyla Cuenca Post-Producer & Editor: Victoria Rondón Simpson  Copywriter: Caty Lee  Graphic & Website Designer: Turbo Rainbow Want to dive deeper into the world of birth?

    What if the secret to vibrancy wasn’t in what you do, but in how you receive?  In this episode, Gigi Vogel shares what radical self-care looks like: bringing light to shadows, fine-tuning your inner vibration, and choosing transformation moment-by-moment. You’ll discover what it takes to create enough safety in your system to flow down, receive, and give from an overflowing well.  As the founder of De La Heart, Gigi is a powerful channeler of the art of intentional self-care. Gigi started her career in the rough-and-tumble world of fashion, finance, and international business. After years of this fast-paced and high-stress lifestyle took its toll, Gigi started looking for natural and accessible ways to restore balance to her everyday life. After years of refining her unique approach to wellness, Gigi realized her calling: to share ancestral wellness rituals and help everyone discover the transformative power of self-care.

    015. Rethinking Cancer, Birth & Chronic Illness with Dr. Melissa Sell

    Many of us are taught we need to live with disease and simply pop a pill to manage symptoms—but what if there’s another way? In this enlightening conversation, Dr. Melissa Sell dives deep into the world of German New Medicine (GNM) and explains how it shifts the paradigm of health from the external to the internal world. We explore the profound impact that emotional and traumatic conflicts have on the body — ultimately leading to physical symptoms, chronic disease, and supposedly incurable illnesses like cancer.  Dr. Sell, a leading pioneer in the field of GNM, reflects on her own evolution from holistic health expert to GNM practitioner. We discuss how holistic health measures like clean eating and detoxifying the home often overlook the underlying cause of an issue — which lies beneath the surface in the subconscious, or even preconscious, mind. Dr. Sell sheds light on how our bodies adapt to conflict and how those adaptations manifest in pregnancy, birth, and childhood. You’ll discover that the root cause of illness goes much deeper than you may expect.  Chapters: (00:00) Introduction (02:03) Understanding The Deeper Roots Of Illness (02:23) Dr. Sell’s Journey To German New Medicine (10:33) Viewing The External World As The Enemy (14:03) Holistic Measures Aren’t The Ultimate Solution: Learning A Different Way (18:33) Where Faith Meets Medicine: The Power Of Listening & Surrendering (21:23) Cancer Is Not A Punishment: Making An Allegiance With Cancer (31:13) Generational Adaptations: Passing Down Programs From Parents To Children (44:38) Self-Betrayal In Birth: Symptoms Stemming From Pregnancy & Birth (53:58) Violent Acts Against Babies Disguised As Treatments (1:00:24) What Is “Preeclampsia”? (1:06:03) The Initiation Into Motherhood (1:12:59) Considering Artificial Conception & Surrogacy  (1:19:18) The Power of Acknowledging Past Trauma (1:23:18) Initiating Your Journey Into German New Medicine Connect with Dr. Melissa Sell: Website Instagram Healing STDs Masterclass Use discount code: EYLA Connect with Eyla Cuenca:  Website  Instagram YouTube Follow Born to Know: Instagram Website Apple Podcast Spotify Born To Know is created by: Host & Executive Producer: Eyla Cuenca Post-Producer & Editor: Victoria Rondón Simpson  Copywriter: Caty Lee  Graphic & Website Designer: Turbo Rainbow
