🍂 Stride Tribe: Where Every Step Brings Us Closer 🍂

The air is cool, the leaves are turning, and it’s the perfect season to slow down and walk together. 🌬️✨

Our Stride Tribe gathers to move, breathe, and reconnect: with ourselves, our little ones, and the community around us. There’s something special about walking side by side, sharing stories, laughter, and that cozy autumn energy that reminds us how good it feels to belong.

These walks aren’t about speed or distance, they’re about connection. About showing up just as you are, bundled in layers, pushing strollers, chasing giggles, and finding joy in the simple rhythm of moving together. 🍁

So grab your scarf, your favorite warm drink, and come walk with us.

No rush. No expectations. Just good company, crisp air, and open hearts. 💛

🌿 Stride Tribe — a family walking group for all seasons of parenthood.

📆 Wednesdays @ 10:30am

🌿 The Power of a Partner’s Touch 🌿

Sometimes, the most powerful support in birth comes from the simplest thing, your hands. 🤲🏽

A gentle hand on the shoulder, firm counter-pressure on the hips, or simply holding hands can do more than words ever could. Your touch reminds your partner: I’m here, you’re safe, and we’re in this together.

Touch helps release oxytocin, the “love hormone” that fuels labor progress, softens tension, and brings comfort. You don’t need to know all the techniques. What matters most is your presence, your love, and your willingness to connect through touch.

As a doula, I guide partners in finding the ways their touch can comfort and empower, so they feel confident and included in the birth experience too.

👉🏾 Want to learn hands-on ways to support your partner in labor? Let’s connect! I’ll show you simple techniques that make a big difference when the moment arrives. 💜

🌿 Did you know that sometimes, during labor, a simple breast pump can be an incredible ally?

When a birthing person uses a pump or even gentle hand expression, the body responds by releasing oxytocin; the very same hormone that strengthens contractions, softens the cervix, and helps labor unfold. It’s like the body’s natural rhythm being gently nudged along. ✨

For some families, pumping in labor can mean contractions finding a steadier pattern, progress moving forward without extra interventions, and baby’s very first nourishment beginning even before birth. 💜

I’ve seen this tool work beautifully in moments when birth feels like it needs a little encouragement—a reminder that our bodies often carry the answers within them. Pumping in labor isn’t just about milk, it’s about connection, hormones, and trusting the natural wisdom of the birthing body.

Every birth has its own story, and sometimes the smallest tools, like a breast pump, become part of that powerful unfolding. 🌸

If you’re curious about natural ways to support your labor and want a compassionate guide by your side, I’d love to walk that journey with you. 💜✨

“We absolutely LOVE Demacy!! She has encapsulated for both of my pregnancies. My first time working with her I had di-di twins which she encapsulated both of their placentas. She was so patient and understanding of my indecisive pregnant brain. My second pregnancy I gave birth during hurricane helene and not only did she travel through unsafe conditions to meet me to get my daughters placenta, but she went out of town to a relatives home to complete her work where there was power. Not even a HURRICANE stopped Demacy’s determination to get the job done. Don’t walk, but RUN to request ANY of her amazing services.”

🌿✨ Did you know that your placenta – the very organ that nourished your baby – can also nurture you in your postpartum journey? Through placenta encapsulation, many mothers may experience a smoother transition into the fourth trimester with more energy, emotional balance, and a deeper sense of grounding.

The placenta is said to hold iron, hormones, and nutrients that your body naturally uses to restore itself. When encapsulated into easy-to-take capsules, it becomes a gentle form of support that can:
💜 Encourage emotional stability
💜 Support healthy milk supply
💜 Boost energy levels
💜 Aid in physical healing

Postpartum is a tender, powerful time – but it can also feel overwhelming and depleting. Placenta encapsulation offers a way to give back to yourself, to replenish what has been given, and to nurture your body so you can show up more fully for your baby and yourself.

🌸 Spots are limited each month so I can give each family the care and attention they deserve. If you’re curious about how this sacred process can be a part of your healing, I’d love to walk you through it.

📩 Send me a message to learn more and reserve your encapsulation today. Your placenta has already worked wonders – let it continue to support you. 💫

🌿 Birth Choices: This or That 🌿

Every birth is a unique journey, and the choices you make along the way shape not only the physical experience but also your emotional and spiritual connection to the moment. There’s no single “right” way to give birth— only what feels safest, most empowering, and aligned with your body and heart. 💜

Take a moment to reflect on these common birth choices. Linger on each option, notice what resonates with you, and remember: your decisions are valid, your preferences matter, and you are supported every step of the way.

✨ Save this post to revisit while planning your birth, or share it with someone who might need reassurance that their choices are valid too.

💜 Ready to feel supported, empowered, and confident in your birth and postpartum journey? I’m here to guide you every step of the way.

✨ Call me today to discuss personalized doula support or mindset coaching designed to help you navigate birth, postpartum, and parenting with calm and confidence.

🌸 Whether it’s birth planning, emotional support, or nurturing your mindset, together we can create a path that feels fully yours.

🖤✨ Black Breastfeeding Week is more than a celebration—it’s a movement.

For generations, Black women have faced systemic barriers to breastfeeding: lack of culturally competent support, the lingering impact of historical trauma, and fewer opportunities to see themselves represented in nursing spaces. These challenges contribute to lower breastfeeding rates, even though the desire and ability to breastfeed are just as strong.

🤎 But here’s the truth: Black parents are reclaiming their power, their history, and their stories through breastfeeding. Every time a Black mother latches her baby, she’s not just nourishing with milk; she’s nourishing with resilience, love, and legacy.

💜 To every Black parent breastfeeding today:
✨ You are enough.
✨ Your body was designed to provide.
✨ You carry the strength of generations within you.
✨ You are creating change with every feeding.

Representation matters. Support matters. Visibility matters. By uplifting Black breastfeeding families, we create healthier communities, stronger bonds, and brighter futures.

This week—and every week—let’s honor, affirm, and stand with Black breastfeeding parents. I am grateful to have nursed both of my babies. The journey is not easy, but it is worth it.
