There is a quiet longing many of us carry—a knowing that something essential has been lost in the way we support families after birth.

In this episode of the Sacred Window Podcast, Christine Eck reflects on how that longing can become lived purpose. Drawing from years of postpartum caregiving, Ayurvedic wisdom, and lived experience, this conversation explores why postpartum care has been diminished in modern culture—and how it can be reclaimed through conscious presence, community responsibility, and remembrance.

This episode speaks to those who feel called to care: postpartum caregivers, birth workers, mothers, partners, and anyone who senses that healing is not meant to happen alone. We explore the difference between awareness and action, the role of fire and determination in living our purpose, and why conscious caregiving is not limited to a profession—it is a cultural practice that begins within families and extends outward into community.

In this conversation, we explore:
– How longing becomes purpose through conscious action
– Why postpartum care is a cultural responsibility, not an individual burden
– The loss of traditional support systems and what it means to rebuild them
– How caregiving begins with presence, trust, and relationship
– Creating a culture where families are held, not left to navigate fragility alone

This episode is an invitation to remember that when care is present, the postpartum window becomes a space of integration rather than trauma—and that each of us has a role in restoring this way of caring.
