Midwife Life: Midwifing you through health, motherhood, and the sacred mess of life’s transformations with Diane Ortega

41: Why Rebirth Is the Opposite of Burnout


Listen Later

It’s been one year since The Midwife Life began —and what started as a podcast has become a movement.

In this special anniversary episode, host Diane Ortega, DNP, CNM shares the story behind her own burnout, the lessons that shaped this year of growth, and the next evolution of The Midwife Life: The Rebirth Journey — a 12-week coaching experience for women ready to rest, repair, and rise into their next season.

Burnout isn’t the end — it’s the beginning of something sacred.

You’ll Hear:

  • The truth about burnout as a sacred contraction before your next chapter
  • How The Midwife Life evolved into a movement of women in rebirth
  • What’s next: The Rebirth Journey — a 12-week coaching experience
  • How to know if you’re in your own season of rebirth
  • Key Quote:

    “Rebirth isn’t about starting over — it’s about starting truer. Burnout was never the end. It was the doorway to something sacred.”
