    Doula Birth Support - with Clementine

    In this episode, we are joined by Clementine, a doula, yoga teacher, and founder of Mama Magia BCN, a space dedicated to supporting women through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum in a deeply holistic and nurturing way. We talk about what being a doula actually means, how doulas support mothers emotionally and physically throughout pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period, and why so many women today feel like they are missing the village and support they truly need. Clementine shares her own journey into this work, how Mama Magia BCN was born, and the importance of bringing intention, rituals, and connection back into motherhood. We also explore practices like Blessing Way ceremonies, placenta encapsulation, pregnancy yoga, and birth story integration, creating safe spaces for mothers to process and heal after birth. We also have an honest conversation about the realities of modern motherhood, the things new mums struggle with that nobody talks about, and how women can feel more supported during one of the biggest transitions of their lives. A really open, grounding, and insightful conversation for anyone expecting a baby, navigating postpartum, or simply curious about holistic motherhood support. 📍Find Clementine & Mama Magia BCN: https://mamamagia-bcn.com https://www.instagram.com/mamamagiabcn 💬 We’d love to hear your stories too - comment below or send us a DM! 📲 Follow us: https://www.instagram.com/unfilteredmumiverse https://www.tiktok.com/@unfilteredmums https://www.facebook.com/profile.php? id=61578247024900https://open.spotify.com/show/0b23Y6fG8wQhmNTvsBsIRB https://podcasts.apple.com/de/podcast/we-are-mumiverse/id1829937566?i=1000719774947

    Beyond words - with Monika Varela

    We are back with Monika Varela, but this time, we are skipping the formal interview and just having a real, honest conversation about communication. Because let’s be real… we all think we are good at communicating, until emotions get involved. In this episode, we dive into the reality of everyday communication - how emotions, misunderstandings, and the way we listen can completely shape our conversations. We also touch on ideas from Nonviolent Communication by Marshall Rosenberg and The 5 Love Languages by Gary Chapman - but in a very real life, practical way. This episode is not about being perfect at communication, it’s about being honest about how hard it actually is. If you have ever said something you didn’t mean, felt misunderstood, or struggled to express yourself clearly… this conversation is for you. Let us know in the comments: What is the hardest part of communication for you? 📍Find Monika: https://monikavarela.com https://www.instagram.com/monikavarela.psico 💬 We’d love to hear your stories too - comment below or send us a DM! 🔔 Don’t forget to subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@UnfilteredMumiverse?sub_confirmation=1 and hit the bell so you never miss an episode. 📲 Follow us: https://www.instagram.com/unfilteredmumiverse https://www.tiktok.com/@unfilteredmums https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61578247024900 https://open.spotify.com/show/0b23Y6fG8wQhmNTvsBsIRB https://podcasts.apple.com/de/podcast/we-are-mumiverse/id1829937566?i=1000719774947

    Let's talk lactation- with Katie James

    In this episode, we are joined by Katie James, an experienced midwife and International Board Certified Lactation Consultant with over 20 years of supporting families through pregnancy, birth, and lactation. We talk about what breastfeeding is really like in the early days, especially for first time mums. From wondering if there is enough milk, to dealing with pain, cracked nipples, or a baby struggling to latch, Katie reassures us on what is normal and when to seek support. We also touch on things like pumping early on, nipple shields, and what to do when feeding doesn’t go as planned. We get into some of the common advice mums hear, like being careful about what you eat while breastfeeding, and whether certain foods actually make a difference. There is also an honest conversation about feeding in public, returning to work, and finding what works for you without feeling judged. A really open and down to earth conversation for anyone expecting a baby or already navigating life with one. 📍Find Katie https://www.katiejames.site https://www.instagram.com/katiejameslactation https://www.katiejames.site/assets-page 💬 We’d love to hear your stories too - comment below or send us a DM! 🔔 Don’t forget to subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@UnfilteredMumiverse?sub_confirmation=1 and hit the bell so you never miss an episode. 📲 Follow us: https://www.instagram.com/unfilteredmumiverse https://www.tiktok.com/@unfilteredmums https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61578247024900 https://open.spotify.com/show/0b23Y6fG8wQhmNTvsBsIRB https://podcasts.apple.com/de/podcast/we-are-mumiverse/id1829937566?i=1000719774947

    The mom brain shift - with Dr. Jodi Pawluski

    In this episode, we sat down with Dr. Jodi Pawluski, a neuroscientist, psychotherapist, and leading expert on the maternal brain. She is the author of Mommy Brain: Discover the Amazing Power of the Maternal Brain and host of the podcast Mommy Brain Revisited. We had an honest, science grounded conversation about how pregnancy and parenthood reshape the brain, why “mom brain” is so often misunderstood, and how these changes can bring both new strengths and new challenges. Dr. Pawluski helps us make sense of stress sensitivity, guilt, emotional overload, and the very real push and pull many parents feel between deep love and the need for space. We also explore maternal mental health, including what’s happening in the brain during postpartum depression and anxiety, how to recognize when support is needed, and what might help protect mental wellbeing during pregnancy and beyond. From lifestyle factors to emerging research on the gut - brain connection, this episode offers reassurance, clarity, and a new way of understanding your brain during one of life’s biggest transitions. This is a grounding, eye opening conversation for anyone who has ever questioned themselves as a parent and wondered what their brain is really doing behind the scenes. 📍Find Dr. Pawluski https://www.jodipawluski.com https://www.instagram.com/dr.jodi_pawluski https://www.jodipawluski.com/mommybrainrevisitedpodcast 💬 We’d love to hear your stories too - comment below or send us a DM! 🔔 Don’t forget to subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@UnfilteredMumiverse?sub_confirmation=1 and hit the bell so you never miss an episode. 📲 Follow us: https://www.instagram.com/unfilteredmumiverse https://www.tiktok.com/@unfilteredmums https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61578247024900 https://open.spotify.com/show/0b23Y6fG8wQhmNTvsBsIRB https://podcasts.apple.com/de/podcast/we-are-mumiverse/id1829937566?i=1000719774947

    Perimenopause explained - with Dr. Mondona S. Goodwin

    In this episode, we’re joined by Dr. Mondona Goodwin, board-certified Internal Medicine physician, mother of two, and founder of CYRA Wellness, to have an honest and much needed conversation about perimenopause. We talk about how it can start earlier than many women expect, even in your late 30s and why you can still have regular cycles while experiencing symptoms. From irritability, anxiety, brain fog and overwhelm, to the symptoms that are often misdiagnosed, we unpack what’s really happening during this hormonal shift. We also dive into Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT), whether it’s safe, when it’s appropriate, and what options women actually have. Plus, practical lifestyle changes, how perimenopause impacts relationships and parenting, and how to advocate for yourself if your concerns are dismissed. If you’ve been feeling like you’re losing yourself, this conversation is for you. Unfiltered, honest, and evidence-based, just how we like it. 📍Find Dr. Mondona https://www.cyrawellness.com https://www.instagram.com/drmondona 💬 We’d love to hear your stories too - comment below or send us a DM! 🔔 Don’t forget to subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@UnfilteredMumiverse?sub_confirmation=1 and hit the bell so you never miss an episode. 📲 Follow us: https://www.instagram.com/unfilteredmumiverse https://www.tiktok.com/@unfilteredmums https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61578247024900 https://open.spotify.com/show/0b23Y6fG8wQhmNTvsBsIRB https://podcasts.apple.com/de/podcast/we-are-mumiverse/id1829937566?i=1000719774947
