Redefining Postpartum Preparation and Business Creation, with Gaby Gonzalez (@LatinaDoula)

How many times were you thinking "I wish someone would have told me this"  in the early weeks after having a baby?  
In this episode, Gaby and I chat all things postpartum including how to navigate the transition into early motherhood, the importance of  rest and deep nourishment, and why we need to start raising the bar in terms of societal expectations for the mother baby dyad. I also share a bit of my own early postpartum experience and things I wish I knew/did differently.  

We go on to to reflect on some parallels between birth and business, including the mystery behind creation, navigating the desire for external validation,  and how human design fits in to this. 

Gaby and I also discuss: 

  • How to regulate and center yourself 
  • The importance of identifying and voicing your needs 
  • How to create and set boundaries 
  • Emotional regulation in motherhood 
  • Why you should stop seeking advice outside yourself

It's time to start rewriting the narrative on birth, postpartum, and business creation! 

Meet this week's guest:   
Gaby supports and walks alongside women to prepare for the most sacred transition (Birth and Postpartum) through online workshops, 1:1 virtual prenatal preparation, and in-person birth and postpartum support for NY moms.

"The best gift you can give to a child is a mother that feels supported, knows her options, and is connected with her inner power."  - Gaby

About the Podcast

REWILD + FREE
Stirring good kinda trouble. This is a podcast where conscious entrepreneurship and personal exploration meets decolonization, nervous system healing, and cyclical living
What happens when you stop trying to fit neatly into this world?
When you unbecome everything you were told to be?
When you breathe nuance into a world obsessed with the binary?
When you stop chasing linear success and remember the power of the cyclical, the seasonal—the way we were always meant to be?

This is REWILD + FREE.

Not a blueprint. But an invitation.

To unmask. To unravel. To break free—not just from survival, but from the deep conditioning that keeps us disconnected. From each other. From our bodies. From the earth.

In all facets of life—motherhood, womanhood, conscious business, spirituality.

These are the conversations social media can’t hold space for. The ones that don’t fit into bite-sized posts or neat little soundbites. The messy, layered, deeply human ones. A mix of raw personal musings and soul-stirring interviews with those willing to go beyond the surface.

I’m Nicole Pasveer—mother, truth-seeker, activator. Someone who spent years untangling herself from stories that were never hers to hold. I’ve done the people-pleasing, the perfectionism, the fitting into boxes too small for me. I know what it feels like to wake up and realize—this isn’t who I am.

So here we are.

Stirring good kinda trouble.

Having the conversations that matter—healing, liberation, decolonization, reimagining how we live, work, and lead. Not with easy answers, but with big, bold, sometimes impossible-to-answer questions.

Where nuance, reclamation, and reimagination collide

Let’s rewild and remember. Together.
