The Soulcircus Podcast - Episode 3 with Maria
In this episode, we sit down with Maria Bengtsson – doula, pregnancy massage therapist, pregnancy photographer, published author of three books on pregnancy, birth and postpartum, and spiritual guide – for a raw, heartfelt, and illuminating conversation about holding space at life’s most powerful threshold. Maria shares her own awakenings, the often-unspoken truths of birthwork, and the emotional depth of guiding women through both the light and the shadow. Together, we explore themes of resistance and surrender, ancestral healing, and why birth is never just about babies – it’s about all of us. This is not your typical conversation about birth. It’s something deeper.
