About this listen
In this episode of Podcast Portugal, we sit down with Iliona Wolfowicz, PhD, a scientist turned doula, educator, and founder of Birth in Portugal. Iliona shares her personal journey from a career in cell biology to supporting women and families navigating pregnancy, birth, and parenting—especially as foreigners or multicultural families in Portugal.
We explore her positive birth experience, the unique aspects of Portugal’s maternity care system, and the challenges parents face when moving to a new country. Iliona explains the role of a doula, the importance of informed birth choices, and how mindfulness, body literacy, and natural family planning can empower women and families.
Whether you're expecting, parenting, or simply curious about the birth experience in Portugal, this episode is packed with valuable insights, practical advice, and inspiring stories.
