Womb Wisdom: Fertility, Food, and the First 40 Days with Heng Ou
Episode 63
Thursday, 15 January, 2026
In this nourishing conversation, Tonya sits down with Heng Ou - founder of MotherBees and author of The First Forty Days, Awakening Fertility, and The Nine Golden Months - to explore fertility, pregnancy, and postpartum as sacred portals rather than purely medical events. Together, they unpack how nourishment, ritual, emotional care, and slowness create fertile ground not only for conception and birth, but for creativity, healing, and rebirth across every stage of a woman’s life. Drawing from Traditional Chinese Medicine, ancestral wisdom, and lived experience, Heng invites us to remember that food, warmth, rest, and community are not luxuries - they are essential medicine.In this episode, we explore:Fertility as an energetic, emotional, and spiritual state - not just a biological oneHow stress, modern pace, and disconnection impact conception and vitalityThe wisdom of the first 40 days postpartum as a sacred healing and bonding portalWhy warming, nourishing foods and ritual protect mothers from depletion and burnoutHow the “40-day portal” applies to creativity, grief, rebirth, and major life transitionsConnect with Heng Ou:Instagram: instagram.com/motherbeesFacebook: facebook.com/motherbeesWebsite: motherbees.com/Books: motherbees.com/collections/motherbees-libraryConnect with Tonya:Follow Tonya on Instagram: @tonyapapanikoloveSign up for Tonya’s NewsletterRainbo.com@rainbomushroomsInstructions to Win a Bundle of Rainbo Products - Leave us Ratings and Reviews: (Or watch the video instructions here) Go to Spotify and search “The Rainbo Podcast” Follow the Show and Rate the Show on Spotify, and take a screenshot Go to Apple Podcasts Search “The Rainbo Podcast” Scroll down past a few episodes until you get to the “Write a Review” section Write your review and screenshot before you hit Submit, as Apple’s system can take a while to publish Send the Spotify screenshot and Apple review screenshot to info@rainbo.com Be sure to go back to Apple Podcasts and hit submit on your review We’ll pull a winner at the end of the month once we verify that your ratings/review went through to win a bundle of tinctures!
