Postpartum Liberation is where doulas, aspiring birthworkers, and conscious mothers reclaim the sacred art of postpartum care while imagining the future of how we hold one another. Hosted by Danielle Lyles Barton—doula, healer, and visionary educator—each episode turns skill into ceremony and everyday care into a radical act of liberation for us and the generations yet to come.
Here, you’ll learn the postpartum skills, stories, and rituals we should’ve all been taught—from ancestral traditions to modern, evidence-based practices.
Week after week, Danielle weaves in:
This is more than a podcast. It’s a movement, a teaching circle, and a love letter to the village.
Whether you’re a doula, midwife, birthworker, childbirth educator, or a conscious mother, this is your weekly dose of postpartum wisdom and revolutionary care.
Every episode drops on Tuesdays at 5:00am EST—designed to fuel your week and root you deeper in the work.
