    When Everything Goes Off Script: Shira’s Two C-Section Stories

    Trigger warning: This episode includes medical coercion, birth trauma, and surgical birth. In this conversation, my friend Shira shares the two births that shaped her - an overdue induction where she was told she couldn’t leave the hospital, a C-section that left her feeling defeated, and a second birth that unfolded in a completely different emotional landscape. We talk about the pressure she felt, the parts she forgot until saying them out loud, the healing she found the second time around, and how much courage it takes to revisit a birth that didn’t go the way you hoped. A slow, honest after-bedtime conversation about expectations, shock, recovery, and the ways we process our own stories over time. Support the show

    When You Become the 1%: C-section Stories with Shaina Glick

    This is a quiet, personal conversation about being the 1% - the outcome you don’t expect, don’t plan for, and hope won’t be yours. Shaina shares her experience moving through an unexpected C-section, a postpartum infection that became life-threatening, and a second birth where everything pointed toward one outcome… until it didn’t. We talk about what it feels like to try so hard for a certain kind of birth, to carry the voices of what it “should” look like, and to slowly come to terms with a body and a story that unfolds differently. There’s no fixing or reframing here, just sitting with what happened, and holding it together. If this meets you in any way, I hope it feels like a little bit of company. Support the show

    What We Carry Through Birth: A VBAC Journey with Chana Leah

    Trigger warning: This episode includes discussion of prenatal suicidal thoughts, birth trauma, and addiction within a family. Please take care while listening. In this episode, I sit with Chana Leah Bleznik for a real and layered conversation about her VBAC journey and everything that surrounded it: the fear, the pressure, the unexpected turns, and the experiences that stayed with her long after birth. We talk about her first birth and the trauma that followed, what it was like going into future pregnancies carrying that with her, and how her relationship to her body and herself shifted over time. Chana Leah also shares about experiencing suicidal thoughts during pregnancy, growing up around addiction, and what it looked like to navigate all of that while becoming a mother. This conversation moves through a lot. Quietly, honestly, and in her own words.  Support the show

    Two Things Can Be True: Trust, Birth, and C-Section Awareness Month

    In this episode, we open C-Section Awareness Month with a real and needed conversation about the truth that two things can be true at once. A birth can be beautiful and hard. A mother can feel grateful and still hold pain. You can learn from an experience without forcing yourself to be “fine” about it. Chani joins me to share her birth story. The fear, the loss of control, the trust she had in her providers, and the trust she struggled to find within herself. We talk about judgment between “natural” and “medical” birth communities, the pressure women feel to defend their choices, and what it actually means to trust your own body when the world is loud and your intuition feels quiet. This conversation is honest, gentle, and validating for anyone who has ever felt conflicted about their birth story or unsure how to hold all the layers of it. Two things can be true: and you deserve space for all of it. Support the show

    Feeding Without Fear: A Conversation About Breastfeeding, Pumping, and Support with Tamari Jacobs

    Feeding a baby is never just feeding a baby. It’s pressure, hope, instinct, confusion, grief, and connection often all at once. In this episode, Chaya sits with lactation consultant Tamari Jacobs of One With the Pump for a grounded, honest conversation about what mothers are really navigating when it comes to breastfeeding, pumping, supplementing, or stopping. Together, they talk about the myth that breastfeeding “just comes naturally,” the loneliness of finding the right support, why understanding the why behind guidance matters, and the quiet grief that can live inside feeding decisions, even when those choices feel like the right ones. This isn’t a how-to. It’s a steady, human conversation meant to offer comfort, clarity, and permission to trust yourself and reach out when you need to. Grab a warm cup and settle in. You can find and work with Tamari on any social platform  ⁨@onewiththepump⁩   Find her Ultimate Pumping Course here - https://onewiththepump.thrivecart.com/the-ultimate-pumping-course/  Use code 'EVENINGTEA' for 20% off (Thanks Tamari!!)  Support the show

    Healing That Doesn’t Rush: A Conversation on Chinese Medicine with Miriam Pineles

    In this episode of Evening Tea, Chaya sits down with Chinese medicine practitioner Miriam Pineles for a slow, curious conversation about acupuncture, healing, and the ways women’s bodies ask us to move at a different pace. This conversation begins with a simple curiosity. Many of us have heard of acupuncture, maybe even tried it once or twice, but rarely do we hear about the deeper philosophy behind it or how it can support women through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. Together, Chaya and Miriam explore what it means to approach healing without rushing, and how the body, the mind, and our emotional histories are often more intertwined than we realize. They speak about the pressure many women feel to “bounce back” after birth, why slowing down can sometimes be the most important form of healing, and how practices like acupuncture and Chinese medicine create space for the body to restore itself in its own time. The conversation gently moves through pregnancy preparation, labor, emotional release, and the unseen work women carry in their bodies. This episode isn’t about adding another thing to your list. It’s about remembering that options exist, and that there are women quietly doing work that helps other women feel supported, listened to, and less alone in their healing.

    Emotion Code, Body Code & Motherhood: Exploring Another Kind of Support with Fruma Weiss

    In this episode of Evening Tea, we open a gentle, honest conversation about the emotional undercurrents of pregnancy, postpartum, and womanhood, and one of the many ways women seek support when big feelings stay put. Together with Fruma Weiss, we explore Emotion Code and Body Code as practices that some mothers turn to when the physical and emotional overlap in ways that are hard to name but impossible to ignore. This isn’t about offering a fix or defining a belief system. It’s about widening the landscape of what support can look like, especially in seasons where the traditional tools don’t touch what’s happening underneath. We talk about what it means to feel “off,” why emotions sometimes linger, how the body holds what the mind can’t process, and why curiosity, not certainty, is often the doorway to relief. If you’ve ever wondered why certain feelings won’t move, or if you’ve sensed that something deeper is asking for your attention, this conversation is an invitation to listen in and feel less alone.

    Tea of Trust: A Conversation on Homebirth, Safety, and Autonomy with Tania Zirulnik

    Tonight I’m sitting down with my own two-time homebirth midwife, Tania Zirulnik. This conversation is about what safety really means in birth. About autonomy. About being guided without being pushed. About holding both trust in your body and clinical responsibility in the same room. We talk through common fears around homebirth, the difference between support and control, and what it looks like for a woman to lead her own birth — within the realms of safety. We also touch on postpartum, emotional vulnerability, and the importance of building support before you need it. If you’ve ever wondered whether trusting yourself and prioritizing safety can coexist — this one is for you. Pour a cup of tea and settle in. Support the show
