Birth is not the trauma, the system is.
This week on Honey Toast, Danielle and Briana sit down with birth worker, somatic trauma coach, and best-selling author Emmy Robbin to talk about birth as initiation, power, lineage, and the remembering of what women have always known.

From fear-based systems and disassociation to sovereign birth and nervous-system trust, this episode explores how trauma is often systemic, not personal, and how true healing begins when we restore faith in our bodies.

A must-listen for anyone navigating pregnancy, postpartum, or the lifelong relationship with the feminine body.

What if the very thing women are taught to hide holds the key to their deepest power

In this conversation with Marieke Bodyn artist philosopher midwife and cyclical living guide we unravel the centuries of shame that have buried the feminine body under patriarchy’s logic and the medical system’s quick fixes. Together we trace the lineage of womanhood through blood and soil from red tents and ancient priestesses to the modern woman’s quiet rebellion of tracking bleeding resting and listening

This episode explores:
• The lost initiations of the first bleed and how their absence shapes generational disconnection
• The ancient practice of returning menstrual blood to the earth as nourishment and ceremony
• The emotional and energetic language of cramps PMS and cyclical pain what your body is actually trying to say
• How the patriarchy rebranded the sacred feminine into something messy and how women are rewriting that story through ritual
• The biological poetry of maternal lineage how your grandmother’s eggs live within you
• Why reclaiming cyclical living is not regression but the most radical form of evolution

This is not a conversation about periods It is a conversation about power The kind that cannot be sterilized outsourced or systematized

Listen if you have ever felt at war with your own body and are ready to remember that she has been on your side all along

Your gut isn’t just about digestion, it’s where stress, burnout, and imbalance first take root. In this conversation with Clinical Specialist Devin Eliason, we explore how the principles of Ayurveda reveal the hidden links between your gut, your emotions, and the way you move through the world.

Devin shares how living out of rhythm with your body shows up as inflammation, anxiety, hormone swings, and chronic fatigue, and how simple shifts in food, routine, and daily awareness can transform survival mode into grounded vitality.

If you’ve ever wondered why your “gut feelings” are so often ignored in Western medicine, why your symptoms feel scattered but connected, or how to bring ancient practices into a modern lifestyle, this episode will leave you seeing your body in an entirely new way.

Tune in to this week’s Honey Toast episode on Spotify or Apple Podcasts or wherever you listen, and join us in re-imagining what gut health really means.
