It’s about time I make a post and start this doula engine. Let me introduce myself. My name is Katie and I’m a birth nerd. A friend introduced me to the film, The Business if Being Born and that propelled me into the birth world. I was captivated by the strength of the birthing people in the film and I couldn’t get enough. I started reading and watching anything birth related that I could get my hands on. I innately knew that through birthing my children, I too would be born. I continue to be reborn every day I spend with them, as parenting is the greatest and most rewarding challenge.
I birthed my children on my terms with the support of amazing midwives and doulas and my badass husband. The strength I learned I had in making these decisions surrounding my births carries me through life’s challenges and I call on those memories to guide me. I listen to my intuition as I did in birth. I surround myself with people who love me and support me as I did in birth. I was transformed and I hope I’ll always be evolving and changing. This was the gift my births gave me and the gift my family gives me every day. The opportunity to grow, to learn, to be strong, to ask for support, to be reflective, to move forward in life as consciously as possible.
I am so excited to support birthing people and their families as a doula in Austin, TX. I want to help you create a conscious path to birth and beyond!
