Summary

In this episode, Alec sits down with Eyla Cuenca to discuss Islam, culture, art, and all things birth!

Eyla Cuenca is a holistic birth guide, Childbirth Educator, Lactation Counselor, health freedom advocate and mother. She holds a BA in Anthropology from Bennington College, and trained with AAHCC founded by Robert A. Bradley, MD where she became specialized as a Birth Educator. Her work as a Guardian Ad Litem and attending births as a Doula in both hospital and home settings brought her into health freedom and advocacy work.

She stands behind the idea that it is everyone's right to have access to empowering education from conception to parenting. She is the founder of the Uncovering Birth Doula Training where she brings other women into the fold of holding space for life transitions whether it's birth, loss or any nuance within the human lifescape.

Her work is dedicated to offering guidance that supports women and men in the process that is a return to their deepest knowing about birth, individual sovereignty, and the body's innate intelligence. 

She offers 1-1 guidance sessions to assist women and couples at any point in their journey, from conscious conception to processing births years later.

She also offers her signature childbirth education program, Uncovering Birth, as well as Doula trainings, and Placenta Encapsulation.
