Welcome to the Doulas Uncensored Podcast! Join hosts Sammy Griffin and Moran Liviani as they embark on this journey of exploration, education, and empowerment.

In this episode, Sammy and Moran dive into the wild, weird, and often unspoken side of pregnancy.

We’re talking about all the things that don’t make it into the baby books — the cravings, cramps, breakouts, sex dreams, mood swings, and all those “is this normal?!” moments that no one warns you about.

We share our personal stories, the most common (and strange!) symptoms our clients talk about, and why it’s totally okay to feel a little off the rails while your body does the miraculous.

Whether you're pregnant, planning for the future, or just curious about what really goes on behind the bump—this one’s for you. Tune in now! 🎧💛

So, sit back, relax, and let's uncover the untold stories, insights, and wisdom together on Doulas Uncensored.

In this episode, Sammy and Moran talk to Dr. Doug Stein, a renowned vasectomy surgeon and advocate for accessible, safe, and effective reproductive health care. With decades of experience performing vasectomies, Dr. Stein has dedicated his career to educating men about their birth control options and destigmatising vasectomy as a responsible choice for family planning.

Dr. Stein has been a leading voice in male contraception, traveling throughout Florida and beyond to provide vasectomy services to communities that may not otherwise have access. His work emphasises the simplicity, effectiveness, and benefits of vasectomy, offering a straightforward alternative to other forms of contraception.

In today’s episode, we dive deep into the world of vasectomy—what it is, the common misconceptions, the fears men have about the procedure, and the long-term impact. Dr. Stein shares insights from his years of practice, addressing concerns about pain, recovery, and reversibility. He also discusses the role of men in family planning and why more conversations about vasectomy should be happening in the birth world.
