Orgasmic Birth
"I wish they would be less afraid... Instead of having health care, we have health scare. The things that make the baby usually help the baby come out.

info_outlineIn this powerful episode, Debra Pascali-Bonaro sits down with reproductive health coach and mom of three, Liya Teplitsky, to explore how mindset, nutrition, and intentional pleasure turned birth from excruciating pain into ecstatic orgasmic bliss. Liya shares her three home birth stories—from a long, painful first labor on a yoga mat to a painless second birth and finally an intentional orgasmic birth supported by a vibrator, midwife, and an unshakable belief that birth can be pleasurable.
You’ll hear how Liya:
-Discovered the concept of home and orgasmic birth from a chance encounter in Las Vegas and the film “Orgasmic Birth.”
-Used visioning, hypnobirthing, and a “no Plan B” mindset to manifest a home birth while others in her class transferred to hospital.
-Crafted a controversial but powerful nutrition approach focused on animal-based fats, protein, and bone broth to support pregnancy, birth, and postpartum.
-Experienced a pain-free, midwife-free second birth at 37 weeks where her husband caught the baby before the midwife arrived.
-Trained her body and mind for an intentional orgasmic third birth using a vibrator, spiritual work, and radical clarity about her desires.
-Shifted her beliefs around age, physiology, and “biblical” ideas of suffering in childbirth, choosing instead to pursue pleasure as a birthright.
This episode is for you if:
-You’re curious or skeptical about orgasmic birth and want to hear a detailed, grounded story.
-You’re preparing for birth and want to explore mindset, manifestation, and physiology as tools for a different experience.
-You support birthing people and want a deeper understanding of how nutrition, beliefs, and sexual energy shape labor.
