This Podcast explores how indigenously Birth has always unfolded, among women - our tribe, where children could see how breastfeeding was done and how birth happened. This an attempt to fetch the stories of the past as well as bring out the new India’s Birth culture to expose the defining features in both. This shall join the dots to where the increasing problems of postpartum anxiety, rising rate of surgical births and poor breastfeeding outcomes are coming from.

Birth Agni - Agni meaning Fire, the Fire that brings us alive, transforms us and has the ability to burn. Birth is designed to affect a woman’s integrity. It is the fire of awakening that makes her life experience wholesome. Deep down her body knows what Birth is supposed to feel - a euphoria of bringing a new life on Earth. The cocktail of hormones are designed to give her a high.

However, birth today has quickly swayed away from a phase of joy to the one marked by Fear, the constant questioning of a woman’s capacity to Birth naturally and the ugly calculation of the odds of a healthy baby at the expense of the mother’s health. We forget that their health is interlinked and flourish as a dyad. In India, the urban rate of Cesarean Sections on an average until 2020 is a whopping 40% which is concerning.

Birth is linked to Patriarchy, Healthcare Politics and Women’s Rights. Respect in Birth is long due to women and it affects the core of who they are.


Join me Divya Kapoor, a Certified Birth and Lactation Counselor and aspiring Traditional Birth Attendant in the quest to shine light on what we can do as parents and a community to change the narrative.

  • #145: Our Gateway into menarche and essence of childbirth the spiritual container

    #145: Our Gateway into menarche and essence of childbirth the spiritual container
    Oct 21 2025

    What if we learnt that our menstrual cycles were a tool for growth. It is something that makes us women special and powerful.

    If we are looking at helping women see the Shakti or the power in themselves, the road begins at Menarche.

    I have been meaning to have an episode on this topic and keenly follow the work of elder home birth Midwife of 30 years, Jane Hardwicke. She is a grandmother , teacher, writer and educator in the realms of menarche, childbirth and menopause.

    She offers training on the spiritual practice of menstruation, pregnancy and founded 'The School of Shamanic Womancraft' and she has created the first holistic menstrual cycle charting app – Spinning Wheels.

    Focus points:

    1. Menarche as a spiritual pathway.

    2. Role of mums in passing down the wisdom of Menarche.

    3. Are we victims of our periods or there is more power, wisdom and teachings it can unleash if we knew better.

    4. Role of fathers in setting the right protective environments for menarche.

    5. Our association of pain through Menarche and its impact on Childbirth.

    6. The significance of building rituals for Menarche , Childbirth and Postpartum.
