Maris Young on Reframing Birth into an Orgasmic Experience
Episode 180
Wednesday, 8 April, 2026
In this heartfelt episode, Debra Pascali-Bonaro welcomes author, mother, and doula Maris Young, whose third birth unfolded in the most surprising and beautiful way — as an orgasmic birth. After a breech birth with her second baby, Maris entered her third pregnancy with a clear intention: to reframe the sensations of birth and discover how pleasurable they could be. Through mindset work, daily practice, and integrating resources from Orgasmic Birth, Maris learned to welcome contractions as manifestations of her body's divine power. Her story takes us from quiet, candlelit labor at home — singing through each wave — to the moment her daughter was born and Maris felt a release so deeply joyful, she describes it as living on "cloud nine" for weeks afterward. Join Debra and Maris as they explore how preparation, presence, and curiosity can turn birth into a profoundly embodied experience of strength, connection, and pleasure. In this episode, you'll hear: How Maris shifted her mindset to welcome contractions as power. Why creating a sensory-filled environment mattered for her labor. How the words "I have full life" became her anchor through birth. What it felt like to experience orgasmic release as her daughter emerged. The ways Maris now supports others through her Young Honest Mother community and book Getting Ready for Birth.
