This post is for all the Mummas carrying their baby in a breech presentation. I know there’s a few of you. What do I know about breech… I’ve supported a woman as her doula who had a natural vaginal breech birth, my baby was breech till 37 weeks and I’m a certified Spinning Babies Aware Practitioner. Yes do the spinning babies exercises but try not to stress yourself out about it. Do what you can, let go of the rest xx

Farewell 2025

2025 has been a busy one. I’ve massaged many of you, heard your stories, your pregnancy news, your losses, your fears and joys. It’s such a pleasure walking this path with you. Thank you trusting me with your body, your tears and celebrations. Thank you for referring me to your family and friends.

I also learnt to play crystal singing bowls, became a Primary Ethics teacher and completed one year of teaching/facilitating stage 1 at my kids school. I attended Gypsy’s Ceremonial Cacao and Facilitator Retreat and also sat next to her lifeless body at her farewell/funeral. I held my first The Seeding ritual passed onto me by Gypsy and co hosted a day retreat with .with.liz. I massaged at retreats and held a couple of . I celebrated 19 years of massaging.

Personally, my eldest turned 18, started driving his own car and has been in his first relationship for 11 months. My youngest started kindergarten and we navigated her selecting talking with a psychologist. My middle boys turned 8 finished year 2.. Ethan went to Japan with his Dad and Oliver went on a cruise with his Mum. We celebrated my partner turning 50. We travelled to The Whitsundays with our children, swam at Whitehaven Beach and flew over the Heart Reef.

I am grateful for this year and look forward to 2026. May it be a good one for you and I and humanity.

Happy New Year xx

Birth of my second son eight years ago. My most challenging pregnancy and labour. I birthed him in the water, placing my hands down and delivering him myself. This boy shook my world up and eight years later, I’m left with this absolute lover of life, the most joyful child who I love beyond words. Happy Birthday Ethan. Thank you for choosing me ❤️

Today I visited a new Mumma I’ve massaged and supported since her first trimester. Was so lovely to meet her son! The boy I’ve been feeling inside for months.

It’s always such an honor to sit with new parents and hear their birth story.

This woman started out like most of us knowing not much but found her village and educated herself and the result was a beautiful, empowering birth.

Congratulations guys xx

Goodbye knee pain

I saw a client today I hadn’t seen in a while. Last time I saw him he was having knee issues, blaming overuse and age. After one massage, the knee pain went away and hasn’t returned. No trip to a specialist needed! Love hearing results like this. I’m a remedial massage therapist and enjoy helping clients with all kind of issues they may be having ✨ Image by

My daughter is six and already understands that her womb is magical. How does she know this? Because I tell her. She’s witness of myself, nurturing and loving my body. My womb.

If you need help returning back to your womb, my offerings include womb massage, closing the bones, The Seeding Ritual and First Moon Circle for our young girls.
