95 Awakened Womanhood, Conscious Birth & Body Trust with Suraj Bryson.

95 Awakened Womanhood, Conscious Birth & Body Trust with Suraj Bryson.

Birthing used to be one of my biggest fears. For most of my life, I carried the same stories many women do — that birth is dangerous, traumatic, painful, and something our bodies can’t truly handle without intervention. And when I started feeling the call to conceive, I knew I had to face that fear head on.

That journey led me to someone very special — Suraj Bryson — a woman who has spent more than 40 years teaching meditation, healing, and empowering women to reconnect with the wisdom of their bodies.

So with Birth Trauma Awareness Week approaching, I decided to share a deeply moving conversation I had with Suraj, here in I Love Me The Podcast.

In this hour-long chat, we explore:

✨ Why giving birth can be one of the most powerful initiations in a woman’s life ✨ How fear and cultural conditioning around pregnancy and birth can disconnect women from their natural wisdom ✨ The ways our childhood experiences and emotional wounds can influence our pregnancy and birthing journeys ✨ The often-unspoken pleasure and sensuality available to women during birth ✨ A woman’s innate capacity for natural, intervention-free birthing when she feels safe and supported ✨ How challenging relationships with our mothers can become powerful opportunities for healing and growth ✨ The importance of vulnerability, surrender, and trusting the intelligence of the body ✨ And why body love is such an essential foundation for empowered womanhood.

Whether you’re planning to have a child, healing from a previous birth experience, or simply feeling the call to reconnect with your feminine power, this timeless conversation will open your heart and remind you of what’s possible when women feel safe in their bodies again.

About me…

Hi, I’m Tamra Mercieca, a Self-Love Therapist, Women’s Pelvic Health Guide, and host of I Love Me The Podcast. For 20+ years I’ve been teaching people worldwide how to heal depression and anxiety naturally, strengthen pelvic health, and cultivate radical self-love.

In 2011, I founded Getting Naked, an online school offering resources and programs that help people strip away limiting beliefs and childhood conditioning so they can feel confident, connected, free in their bodies and able to love and accept themselves unconditionally.

Alongside being a mum, wife, tea lover, and drummer, I’m qualified in more than a dozen holistic healing modalities. I’ve written two books, been published worldwide (print, TV, radio, etc), and often share my passion for self-love, mental health and pelvic wellbeing at yoga and spirituality festivals.

My own journey began when I learned how to overcome suicidal depression and anxiety without medication. From that, I created a ten-session self-love therapy program that now helps others do the same.

On the podcast, I share personal stories, tools and science-backed down-to-earth practices for emotional healing, women’s health, and living with more joy and freedom. May you feel more whole and more complete, by simply tuning in!
