There is so much wisdom in moving more slowly; apprenticeship and becoming a birth attendant is no exception. We live in a high octane world where even birth attendants are “made” in minutes or months. While that is an option, I really want us to consider the way it feels. Being in a hurry or […]

Sam and I chat about the birth bag shopping list she made for me recently. We could easily have spent hours on this, but wanted to share a little taste of the perspective that we share around tools and equipment. I love that Sam has brought such wisdom to our “team” here and I miss […]

This podcast is taken from a Full Moon Circle we did all about radical prenatal care. I focused in on 3 principles and kinda went with that as a ramble. I will be offering a new Pregnancy Care Monthly Circle in 2024 that will be donation based and focused on prenatal care from ALL angles; […]

I love the women I serve and love hearing from them after the bubble of birth and early mothering has settled. There is always such wisdom, and Kirstin is a great example of choosing consciously to come into her mothering in a way that felt aligned. Not the way that was taught or modeled for […]

It’s been a few week of social media madness, and I am so glad I could let myself settle before sharing with you, as always, my transparent heart and growth through what could be seen as a “negative” experience. I am so grateful for my somatic lessons lately and for my teachers, because to be […]

This is kinda a riff on a post I wrote last month about birth being something we are called to by our Souls. I share some more thoughts, and some email responses and I hope this can remind you of why you are really here!

On this live podcast, I addressed some rumors being sent my way by instead speaking about the sister wound in birth and midwifery. What is it? Why does this deep wound mean that we can’t be secure in ourselves? How does gossip and such happen among women that are supposed to be supporting women? Take […]

Every midwife I know has a similar story but yet there is shame in admitting them. Here’s some raw truths and my own vulnerable stories woven together around the times I was “blamed” as a midwife for a less-than-ideal outcome. I share my truth with the Universe and you all as a way to mend […]
