Born To Know

Thanks for joining me on the Born to Know podcast. I’m Eyla Cuenca, for over a decade I’ve been guiding women and families on their path to reclaiming their self-sovereignty through the scope of fertility, conception, birth, & postpartum. You may know me for exposing the various ways in which disempowering narratives and systems claim to be giving us choice, convenience, & freedom from suffering. And just when it seems like I'm going to pull off the culprit's villain mask, I like to reveal how you've been in the driver's seat all along. We decide when we are ready to receive, to drop the struggle, to make the change, to walk toward life. The Born To Know podcast brings you conversations with world-renowned experts & thought leaders in every field to peel back the layers of this epic world we live in, and see where choice really resides for each of us, everyday. We are all born to know, and to live as our most authentic and liberated selves.

    2: How to Touch Your Spouse, How to Be Better at Receiving & More with Whitney Lowery

    Learn to speak your needs and feel safer in your body with the signature course from Uncovering Birth, Creating Safety in the Body. Use the code BTK10 for 10% off! In this episode, Eyla sits down with Whitney Lowery, an embodiment facilitator who works with women and couples on self-awareness and personal sovereignty. Whitney shares some simple tools, like somatic exercises and grounding techniques, that will help you manage the inevitable stresses of today’s world plus enhance your relationship dynamics. Tune into this episode to learn all about balancing self-care with partnership responsibilities, breaking old patterns, and genuinely connecting with your own desires. I am Whitney Lowery, an embodiment facilitator focused on helping women feel safer and more at-ease with pleasure, rest, and doing things their own way. The women I work with are great at pushing themselves onward and enduring lots of discomfort to achieve their goals. Relaxing only makes them more tense and pleasure is just another place to perform. Just another chore to check off the list making it another goal to achieve. The self-care they choose is mostly about self-improvement rather than joy or adding to their aliveness. Even embodiment is effortful and filled with the pressure to do it right and be good at it. I use moving meditations and simple exercises so women can practice sensing their body's feedback and moving for their body's pleasure rather than mirroring me or moving to my body's rhythm. It's like choosing your own adventure so I constantly give you options for personalizing things to your body's preferences. You expand your capacity to feel yourself, release built-up tension, and come home to your body. Timestamps: 5:41 How to use different nervous system tools to manage stress. 7:09 Why grounding yourself before social interactions matters. 21:56 How to differentiate between pushing yourself to the edge and self-abuse. 24:37 Why microdosing discomfort can help you grow. 35:55 How to practice receiving in small, tangible ways. 43:51 Why recognizing entitlement dynamics can improve relationships. 52:19 How changing your behaviour can shift the dynamics in your relationship. Whitney offers 1:1 Coaching for Couples to build deeper trust and intimacy, while also taking women on their own journey of discovery and healing. Connect with Whitney through the Being With Your Body Website.  Work with Eyla 1:1 to understand your story better in an Alchemy Session. We visit from anything to birth trauma or releasing fear around conception, to birthing or postpartum. This also doesn't have to be about birth. Let's alchemize whatever block is coming up for you.  Resources Mentioned: Betty Martin’s Wheel of Consent | Website The Art of Receiving and Giving by Betty Martin | Book or Audiobook Connect with Eyla through the Uncovering Birth Website and her Instagram.   My Affiliates: Eyla loves Lotus Wei’s potent flower elixirs because they help women get into their body and “out of the story”.

Eyla critiques the conventional medical system, urging women to take back their autonomy and make informed choices. As a certified childbirth educator and doula, she shares her insights on how reclaiming birth experiences can shift them from traumatic to empowering. Learn how delving into family systems and addressing deep-rooted traumas can lead to profound healing and personal growth. Join Eyla as she unpacks societal narratives, encourages introspection, and inspires a path toward authentic and fulfilling living. Eyla Cuenca is a Childbirth Educator, Doula, health freedom advocate & birth trauma alchemist. Her work is dedicated to offering guidance that supports women and men in returning to their deepest knowing about birth, individual sovereignty, and the body’s innate intelligence. With a BA in Anthropology and Ethnographic photography from Bennington College, Eyla studied family systems and is passionate about helping change the conversation around the way women birth and initiate into the world. She brings an anthropological lens to her work, with an eye for institutional critique. Eyla trained with the AAHCC founded by Robert A. Bradley, MD, where she specialized as a Birth Educator and Doula. Her work as a Guardian Ad Litem for the 11th Judicial Circuit of Florida as well as attending over 200 births as a Doula – in both hospital and home settings – brought her into health freedom and advocacy work. Eyla thoroughly believes that it is everyone’s right to have access to empowering education from conception to parenting and that by using the tool of birth we can understand the origin of chronic illness, and access freedom, connection and the most authentic version of ourselves. Timestamps: 5:57 Understanding the core of why trauma persists. 14:51 Making different decisions that align with your instinct. 24:24 Developing a healthy permission field for others. 30:31 Taking responsibility for your own choices and healing.
