8: Doing social media the sovereign way with Eyla Cuenca of Uncovering Birth

Eyla Cuenca has built a following on Instagram by being a bit of a rebel in the birth space. A thought leader to the core, Eyla is a holistic birth guide, Childbirth Educator, Doula, health freedom advocate and birth trauma alchemist. Eyla creates polarizing posts that really help to grow her following... all in service of creating more conversation, connection, and sovereignty for everyone involved in the birth experience. Eyla gave us the inside scoop on how she creates a strong container to hold herself with love, especially when what she posts is divisive and polarizing. Plus how she grew her business from in person to online, and her manifestation process when it comes to growing an audience. Eyla's social media strategy is proof that if you're not afraid of ruffling feathers, you can build a strongly successful business online... in a way that works for YOU.

Eyla's work is dedicated to offering guidance that supports women and men in returning to their deepest knowing about birth, individual sovereignty, and the body’s innate intelligence.

With a BA in Anthropology and Ethnographic photography from Bennington College… Eyla studied family systems and is passionate about helping change the conversion around the way women birth. She brings an anthropological lens to her work, with an eye for institutional critique. Eyla trained with the AAHCC founded by Robert A. Bradley, MD, where she specialized as a Birth Educator and Doula. Her work as a Guardian Ad Litem for the 11th Judicial Circuit of Florida as well as attending over 200 births as a Doula – in both hospital and home settings – brought her into health freedom and advocacy work. Eyla thoroughly believes that it is everyone’s right to have access to empowering education from conception to parenting.
