26. Trusting Your Body Through Pregnancy, Birth, and Postpartum with Shauna Hall

Written By Emma Goff

What if pregnancy, birth, and postpartum weren’t something to “get through” — but an experience you could move through with confidence, intuition, and support?
In this episode of The Cyclical Doula Podcast, I’m joined by Shauna Hall, a spiritual energetics herbalist, postpartum doula, hypnotherapy practitioner, and host of the Align Your Glow and Soul podcast. Shauna shares how her own pregnancy, birth, and postpartum experience reshaped the way she supports women — and why education, energetic awareness, and true postpartum planning matter far more than we’re often taught.
We talk about:
Why intuition is a practice — not something you’re either born with or not
How energy, stress, and mindset influence pregnancy and birth experiences
The overlooked importance of postpartum preparation (and why the nursery can wait)
What postpartum support really looks like in the first four months
Using hypnotherapy, rituals, and routines to support emotional regulation
Reframing fear-based narratives around birth and informed consent
Simple ways to begin reconnecting with your body and inner wisdom
Why knowledge is power — even if you don’t have access to a doula or midwife
This conversation is a reminder that you don’t need to outsource your intuition — and that feeling supported, informed, and empowered can radically change how you experience motherhood.
