Redeeming Birth, Oklahoma City, OK (2026)

There comes a point in pregnancy & birth where preparation reaches its limit. You can study, plan, pray, gather wisdom from those who have gone before you, surround yourself with support and still find yourself standing at the edge of the unknown.

That moment is not failure or a sign you haven’t “done enough”. It is the invitation. God’s promises were never meant to replace preparation, but to sustain us past the point where preparation is no longer enough. They steady us when the voice of fear tries to rise, and reminds us that we are never accomplishing this birth or motherhood journey by ourselves.

In labor, surrender is not “giving up”. I believe it’s actually the whole point! It’s releasing the need to control what was never ours to manage in the first place. It’s trusting that the same God who formed your baby knit wisdom into your body as well.

His promises will always meet us right there in the intensity. In the waiting. In the stretching. In the moment you realize your strength has run out and something deeper must carry you through.

Pregnancy and birth are sustained not by certainty, but by faithfulness. What God begins, He completes. What He promises, He keeps. And that truth becomes the light guiding you & grounding you to take that one next step when everything else feels unsteady.

Here with you ♥️

Pain has never been meaningless in God’s story.

From the very beginning, new life has come through surrender & sacrifice. The pain of birth is not random or cruel, and it is not something to rush past, dismiss, or escape from. It is purposeful. It is the stretching that makes room for life & transformation.

In the same way, every moment of the suffering of Jesus was not wasted. His pain was not the end of the story, but the doorway to redemption. What looked like defeat became the greatest act of love the world has ever known!

Birth carries that same rhythm. The pain does not stand alone, it leads somewhere beautiful. It brings forth new life, not just in the baby being born, but in the mother who is being formed through the process. In the family that is born to bring God’s Kingdom to Earth.

Pain & discomfort in birth does not mean something has gone wrong. Often, it means something holy is unfolding. Redemption has always come through surrender, and life has always followed where sacrificial, unconditional, selfless, nurturing love was poured out. This is the sacred pattern we are invited to partner with when we bring our baby into our arms.

I’m so excited to announce that I’ll be offering childbirth education classes in TWO locations in March! 🎉 Monday nights in OKC and Tuesday nights in Edmond.

This is less like a business move and more like an answered prayer. I had so many clients driving long distances to be a part of the OKC classes. Hopefully, this gives me a chance to reach more families in other areas, meet them closer to home, and create space for birth/postpartum preparation that feels steady, intentional, and deeply supportive.

These classes are for the mama who wants to walk into birth feeling at peace instead of overwhelmed. Grounded instead of rushed. Supported instead of alone. Whether this is your first baby or not, my heart is to help you prepare with clarity, confidence, and peace. My heart is that you would fully know ALL your options, trust your body, and feel held and cared for along the way. March will be here before we know it, and I’d love to prepare together 🤍 Spots are very limited to keep class sizes small!

Mental and emotional preparation for your birth matter deeply… but if dad isn’t leaning in, staying present, and showing up with his whole heart, the atmosphere of birth can shift entirely. His steady presence, his voice, his supportive hands… they carry more weight than he may ever realize in the moment.

Birth is never just about welcoming a baby... it’s about a family being born. When dads engage fully, they help shape the beginning of the story into one marked by safety, connection, and love. As a doula, I often remind dads that nobody expects them to have all the answers or know exactly what to do in every moment. It doesn’t take perfection!! At the end of the day, it takes presence. It takes love. It takes steady support, even when we're in discomfort or having a challenging moment emotionally. What matters is showing up: encouraging, protecting, advocating, and reminding us that we're never ever alone.

Pregnancy has a way of slowing us down whether we ask for it or not. It interrupts our momentum, strips back what we thought defined us, and asks us to sit with uncertainty longer than we’d prefer. In a world obsessed with productivity and control, that can feel uncomfortable. It's unsettling to our spirit. But just because it’s quiet doesn’t mean nothing is happening. Some of the most important work happens beneath the surface, where no one else can see.

I’m deeply grateful for the way this season was designed to teach us to loosen our grip and remember what actually holds us. Growth doesn’t always announce itself loudly. Sometimes it looks like waiting. Sometimes it looks like endurance. Sometimes it looks like trusting that your steps are being steadied even when the path forward feels unclear.

If you’re meeting your baby in 2026, I hope you know this isn’t a throwaway season or something to rush through. It wasn't designed to make you feel anxious or fearful. Every moment matters. You matter. And even here, you are being led with care. I’m cheering for you (really!) and praying that what’s unfolding is being made firm beneath your feet.

Here to serve you when you're ready. ❤️

I’ve been loving all the end-of-year birth stats floating around lately, and while numbers can be meaningful, what stays with me most isn’t how many babies were born or how they arrived. It’s the mothers.

The preparation. The transformation. The courage it takes to step into birth informed, supported, and willing to trust the process in a world that so often shouts control and fear.

This year looked like women preparing deeply in their bodies, minds, and hearts for birth in so many different ways. It looked like pressing in during birth classes, being supported in labor as their bodies did sacred work, and coming back together postpartum to share stories, laughter, tears, and strength.

My prayer was that classes created clarity & peace instead of anxiety & overwhelm. That my birth support reminded mothers they were not alone. That postpartum meetups helped moms realize they didn’t have to carry this season by themselves. And I feel like maybe that’s exactly what I accomplished in partnership with all the families who trusted me enough to allow me to walk closely with them.

I’m so grateful for every mother & father who allowed me in to such tender moments this year: whether in class, at a birth, or months later holding a baby on your hip while you reflected on how far you’ve come. These are the “stats” that matter to me. And I can’t wait to see what 2026 holds!! 🤍

The more families I sit with, the more it becomes true to me that there’s a big difference between “wishing” for a peaceful birth and intentionally preparing for one.

Wishing sounds like, “I’ll just see how it goes.” Preparation sounds like, “I want to understand my body, my options, and the support I’ll need as the birth process progresses and unfolds.” Both come from a good heart, but only one tends to carry a mother through labor with steadiness even when sensations intensify or challenges arise.

Preparing doesn’t mean controlling outcomes, it means learning how birth works, knowing your choices before you’re asked to make them, and inviting your support team into the process so you’re not carrying the weight alone. It builds confidence, not because everything is going to go perfectly, but because you are grounded, informed, and supported no matter your story!

Everyone prepares for their births differently, but that’s the heart behind my childbirth education classes. My goal is to help mothers move from “wishing” for peace to walking into birth prepared for it in body, mind, and heart. March 2026 classes will be here before we know it, and if this resonates with you, I’d love to prepare together!

There is a kind of joy you can only understand after a season of hoping, waiting, more waiting. The moment you meet your baby… the first cry, the weight of them on your chest, the feeling of “there you are”! All of it carries a deep echo of fulfillment. It is the joy that only comes after hope, longing, stretching, and surrender.

Every time I have the honor of witnessing that moment, I’m reminded of another birth long ago… the moment God’s promise was fulfilled in Jesus. After generations of waiting, silence, expectation, and longing, hope finally entered the world through the beautiful, challenging, transformative process of birth. The same God who kept His promise then is the One who carries you now!

Your baby’s birth is not the same as the birth of Christ, of course, but it does whisper the same truth! God is faithful, He brings beauty & joy through the waiting, and He fulfills what He begins. He meets us in the very places where we’ve been stretched the most.

When you hold your baby for the first time, you’re holding a promise entrusted to you. A story that was forming long before you saw it with your eyes. A reminder that every laboring mother stands in a long line of anticipation, and every birth is a little reflection of the faithfulness of God.

One of the most heartbreaking things I hear from mothers is something along these lines: “I didn’t feel like I had a say.” Not because they didn’t care deeply about their birth, or take the time to make a plan they felt peace about, but because somewhere along the way, a policy was chosen more important over a laboring mother.

Birth is not a checklist. It is not a list of protocols. It is the sacred meeting place of a mother, a baby, and the holy process unfolding between them. Far too many women walk away from their feeling like their preferences didn’t matter as much as someone else’s policies, or that their intuition was dismissed in the name of protocol.

Birth was never meant to be a list of policies managed over the mother. It was meant to be walked alongside, with the family. Your body, your story, your values, your instinctual wisdom… all of these deserve to be at the center of your care!

Autonomy isn’t about control or rebellion; it’s about partnership. It’s about honoring the God-given dignity and intelligence built into your body and spirit. When a mother seen, heard, and trusted, the whole birth space shifts. Peace settles in, safety is felt, tension loosens, trust is created, oxytocin rises, and the entire atmosphere feels different.

You deserve to be respected, heard, and empowered. Always.

The first trimester has a way of stripping things back. Morning sickness, fatigue, the fog that can settle over your harder days… it all slows you down in a way you didn’t choose.

Suddenly, the version of you who had energy, productivity, a tidy space, and predictable rhythms feels out of reach. For me, it felt disorienting, even discouraging at times, to not recognize myself. Would I ever go back to “normal”? But what if even this is an invitation to remember who you REALLY are?

Friend, your identity has never rested on what you can get done in a day. It is not defined by how energized you feel, how many to-dos get checked, how clean your house is, or how perfectly you keep up with your routine. In this slowing, in this stripping back, there is an opportunity given to us to remember the truth:

You are held, chosen, and deeply loved before you lift a finger. Your identity is in Christ. Alone.

Maybe the first trimester isn’t a setback. Maybe it’s a gentle reminder that we are not sustained by our own strength, and our worth will never be measured by our productivity. Maybe it’s an opportunity right in the very beginning to start becoming the mother we were created to be.
