What do you actually need for a newborn baby? And how much of the baby industry is just marketing?

If you’re a new mom (or expecting), you’ve probably been told you need endless baby products, gear, and “must-haves.” But the truth is you don’t need most of it.

In this episode, we break down the motherhood industry, how it profits off fear and overwhelm, and what you actually need to support your baby.

We cover:

• What newborns truly need (and what they don’t)

• Minimalist baby essentials

• Non-toxic and intentional parenting choices

• How to simplify motherhood and reduce overwhelm

This episode will help you feel more confident, grounded, and empowered as you prepare for (or navigate) motherhood.

Your nervous system controls gut health, hormones, and immune function. If you’re stuck in fight-or-flight, your body cannot fully heal.

If you’re dealing with gut issues (bloating, IBS, constipation), hormone imbalances (irregular cycles, painful periods), fatigue, anxiety, or chronic inflammation - your nervous system may be the root cause.

In this episode, we break down how being stuck in fight-or-flight impacts:

• Digestion + gut health

• Hormone balance (cortisol, thyroid, reproductive hormones)

• Immune system function + inflammation

You’ll learn why your body can’t fully heal in a stressed state and what you can start doing to support nervous system regulation.

This is the missing piece when “doing everything right” still isn’t working.

Let’s talk homeopathy - one of the most misunderstood (and most magical) forms of medicine. ✨

You’ve probably heard of remedies like Arnica for bruising or Chamomila for teething, but homeopathy is so much more than that. It’s a system of medicine built on the principle of “like cures like,” where remedies are chosen not just for the symptom, but for the person behind it — their emotions, reactions, and unique body responses.

In this episode, Dr. de Luna breaks down how homeopathy works, when to use it, and why it’s a game-changer in pregnancy, birth, and postpartum care. From back labor and breech birth to mastitis and tears, we’re covering the remedies every mama (and practitioner) should know about.

We’ll cover:

🌿 What “like cures like” really means — and how it heals

💊 How remedies are made

👩‍👧 Why homeopathy is so individualized — no one-size-fits-all dosing here

💥 Go-to remedies for birth + postpartum

NOTE: back labor remedy is actually Kali Carb, NOT Kali Bich

Let’s take a moment to be in awe of breastmilk 🍼✨

This liquid gold is so much more than food - it’s medicine, communication, and immune intelligence in one. From colostrum (that golden first milk) packed with antibodies and stem cells, to the way your body literally changes milk composition when you kiss your baby — breastmilk is the most adaptive substance on earth.

In this episode, Dr. de Luna dives into the mind-blowing science of breastfeeding and why every drop counts — whether you nurse for two weeks or two years.

We’ll cover:

💛 Colostrum - why this “first milk” is liquid gold for gut + immune health

🧬 Stem cells and immune cells: yes, they’re in your milk

💋 Why kissing your baby actually changes your breastmilk

🦠 Antibodies, microbiome seeding, and lifelong immune protection

🌿 How to use breastmilk topically for rashes, baby acne, and eye infections

Newborns are like little aliens 😅 Cone heads, swollen genitals, baby “periods,” sneezing fits, little piggy grunts, and poop that looks like lentil soup - it’s all normal.

This episode is your permission slip to stop Googling every little thing at 4AM and just breathe. 🫶

We’re diving into all the strange (but totally healthy) newborn quirks - from those jerky reflexes and flaky skin to why your baby sounds like a tiny farm animal while they sleep. You’ll leave feeling informed, grounded, and way less freaked out by your adorable little potato. 🥔

We’ll cover:

👶 Cone heads, vernix, and newborn “weird looks”

🩸 Mini “periods” in baby girls and why it happens

🍆 Why baby privates look puffy at first

💨 Baby sneezes, snorts, and boogers galore

💩 What’s up with that lentil/mustard poop

💤 Newborn sleep cycles and cluster feeding (a.k.a. why you never sleep)

🧠 Primitive reflexes - the adorable baby flails that actually mean something

Because newborns are silly, wonderful, and absolutely perfect. You just need someone to tell you what’s normal - with zero shame and a little laughter.

Today, we have on my AMAZING doula, Angelica Barrera. We're taking you inside the birth portal… because yes, I had a whole baby at home in my bathtub. No hospital gown. No IV. Just me, my birth team, my dog, some primal noises, and a perfect baby.

We’re talking all the juicy details: what went down (literally), what I learned, what shocked me, and what I wish more people knew about home birth. From managing contractions like a boss (kind of) to the moment I met my baby for the first time — it’s raw, real, and ridiculously empowering.

Whether you're into birth plans or just nosy (no judgment), this ep is packed with laughs, lessons, and a whole lotta love for the power of the human body. Let’s normalize talking about birth — the beautiful, the messy, and the “OMG is this really happening?!”
