I don’t usually jump on social media trends, but this one had me curious.

Looking back, 2016 seems like a whole other lifetime. I was deep in the thick of parenting littles, working full time as a massage therapist and doula and networking my business as much as possible.

I hosted the Great Cloth Diaper Change event, and met Randy Patterson from ProDoula. I went to Scandia for the first time that year and last year found myself back in that small village for work.

I had sleepless nights with a toddler, and rarely had space in the bed. I was bad sharing and breastfeeding.

What a whirlwind that decade was.

December Dump.

In 2025 I made an intentional effort to take 2
Months off from birthwork and boy did it pay off!

It’s something that most folks don’t understand about always being on call and available-how your nervous system almost can’t regulate when you have to be ready to go at the drop of a hat, never knowing when you’ll be called away or how long you’ll be gone from your family.

December was a dream! Holiday parties, travelling to see family, kids meeting heroes, visits with friends, amazing food and loads of laughter.

I’m ready for 2026!

From my family to yours, we wish you a Happy New Year filled with of Joy, Happiness and adventures!Here’s to 2026!  #202...

The stats are coming, but here are few highlights from the year!

🥰Supporting a client in postpartum recovery was a big win for cesarean families.

🥰Seeing a vaginal breech birth attended by the most calm, skilled midwives was incredible.

🥰Immense gratitude for my backup doulas .services



I needed them more than every before and my clients were in the best of hands

🥰A “near miss”! The most Hollywood birth I have ever been present for! Red lights! Running down hallways! It was something to remember!
-5 prenatal classes! The best group of families!

So many amazing memories with such lovely folks. I couldn’t be more thankful for the trust you all place with me.

Stay tuned for birth stats to come!

I don’t have too many photos of myself working.

At a birth recently with someone snapped this shot.

It doesn’t look like much, but this is what holding space for someone looks like. Holding a hand, quiet encouragement, and simple presence.

I’m so thankful for the privilege to be in this space.

Recently, I’ve been having all sorts of conversations about letting go.

Certainly, it’s not an uncommon thing to be told that surrender and letting go are required for birth, but that’s easier said than done.

If you are someone who has watched birth videos in preparation for your own birth, it may have caused worry at the sight of someone “losing control.” But that isn’t what is happening.

What comes with surrender is an ability to cope with the waves and intensity of labour.

The other part is when folks force it when their bodies aren’t telling them they need it. Vocalizing through rather than allowing their voice to groan as a primal urge.

Labour is most certainly a time to be IN your body.

The beautiful part about it is that in that specific circumstance, it is a private moment if you want it to be. While some folks do share their births publicly, it’s okay to keep It private.

You are the only one who will cope through birth the way you do-quietly or roaring through each wave.
