Demi, founder of Somatic Rebirthing, shares her journey as a midwife and guide who helps people reconnect with the stories their bodies hold, while discussing her own conscious pregnancy journey in Costa Rica. She illuminates how birth is not merely a medical event but a sacred, psychedelic portal that connects us to our primal wisdom, explaining how our own birth imprints affect our development and relationships throughout life.

• Birth as psychedelic, primal, and holy – a ceremony rather than a medical procedure to be managed
• How our original birth imprints influence our development and stay with us into adulthood
• The importance of connecting with nature to access primal birthing wisdom
• Somatic approaches to healing birth trauma through the body's stored memories
• Creating safety in relationships as the foundation for healing trauma
• Conscious pregnancy as a portal for shadow work and relationship growth
• The relationship between sexual energy and birth energy
• Learning to recognize structural dissociation patterns in the body
• The integration process after transformative experiences or birth


Demi Betschart is a Somatic Practitioner, Traditional Midwife, and Pre- and Perinatal Expert with studies in Pre- and Perinatal Psychology. Her work is devoted to reclaiming birth as ceremony and supporting women in returning to their innate wisdom. With a background in both clinical and traditional midwifery, as well as extensive study in somatic and trauma healing, Demi guides individuals and families through the thresholds of preconception, pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and beyond. She weaves together nervous system regulation, trauma integration, ancestral remembrance, and body-based practices to offer pathways of healing that restore sovereignty and wholeness. Through retreats, 1:1 work, and community offerings, Demi supports mothers and families in transforming birth imprints, regulating their nervous systems, and reconnecting to the sacred intelligence of the body.

Alana Joy Newton shares her transformational journey from physical disconnection to soul remembrance, revealing how a rare genetic diagnosis became the catalyst for her spiritual awakening. Through deeply personal stories, she illuminates the powerful connection between our physical symptoms and spiritual messages, showing how learning to trust our bodies can lead to profound healing and self-discovery.

• Discovering the parallel between Alana's rare connective tissue disorder and her deeper disconnection from heart, soul, and intuition
• Transforming our relationship with physical "symptoms" by approaching them as messages rather than problems to be fixed
• Navigating the collapse of identity and relationships when we begin to awaken to our authentic selves
• Understanding the "liminal space" – the uncomfortable void between what was and what will be
• Recognizing depression and suicidal thoughts as potential messengers of misalignment rather than purely pathological conditions
• Reclaiming sovereignty over our bodies and intuitive wisdom rather than outsourcing it to external authorities
• Finding wonder in everyday existence as a pathway back to self-compassion and possibility

Jakob guides business leaders, entrepreneurs, and visionaries to overcome burnout and find alignment by working at the root cause of unhealthy patterns through ontological coaching, somatics, and various modalities.

• Jakob’s healing journey began with a severe skin condition in his early teens that led to isolation and social anxiety
• Through meditation and spiritual practice, he experienced remarkable healing that launched his path into personal development
• His work evolved from plant medicine facilitation to high-end coaching after noticing the critical importance of integration
• Virtual coaching provides accessibility while in-person work offers deeper connection—both approaches have strengths and limitations
• True transformation requires rigorous accountability that many online programs lack
• The difference between therapy and coaching: therapy often focuses on past trauma, while coaching is future-oriented
• Nervous system regulation isn't about constant calm but developing flexibility to experience all emotions
• Healing is necessarily messy—we need to process anger, grief, and other difficult emotions rather than bypass them
• Addiction (to substances, behaviors, or even personal development) is fundamentally about avoiding discomfort
• Start your healing journey by listening to the part of you that already knows something is off

Sarah offers her perspective on the intense energies currently swirling around us, likening them to a global spiritual awakening leading to fresh beginnings. Our conversation dives deep into the uncertainties of spiritual growth and the necessity of trusting the unfolding process without needing all the answers.

Personal stories of awakening take center stage as we recount our own paths from lives bound by societal expectations to ones enriched by authenticity. A personal tale of triumph begins with a traumatic car accident that led to a misaligned existence, only to be reshaped through holistic practices and the guidance of a shaman's apprentice. Emphasizing the interconnectedness of healing, we reflect on how our journeys have reshaped not only our own lives but also our relationships, underlining how internal transformations ripple outward, affecting the people around us.

The episode crescendos with a compelling discussion on the art of energetic cord cutting for emotional healing. Through vibrant dreams and spiritual practices, we reclaim our energy by identifying and releasing these cords that connect us to others. Illustrating the impact of these practices, we share personal stories and case studies, highlighting the need for a holistic and individualized approach. As we wrap up, we express our gratitude for the enriching exchange of ideas, offering our listeners a treasure trove of resources to further explore the topics that resonated most.
