Grateful for time to slow down, be silly, and 〰️relax〰️ with fellow birthworkers.

Bonus points for s’mores and cell service (on call life). 🍫✌️

Last class held at this special place. Lots of feels but so much more to come. Thanks for the journey  ✌️

We’re so lucky to have built this special learning space together… physiological birth, comfort and coping, medical interventions, advocacy… it’s not easy to tackle in one day but we have fun and heartfelt connection along the way. We are changing birth experiences and outcomes! Thank you, Kaitlin, for sharing your reflections.
❤️🧡💛💚🩵

Morning sickness, pregnancy pain, transition, postpartum sleep deprivation, tantrums…. I don’t have to like this part. It’s not super positive or uplifting necessarily. But it’s an affirmation, a reassuring thought, and something to hold. Not every part of pregnancy, birth, and parenting will be peaceful and calm. And it’s okay not to love every moment ✌️

It’s the little things! Having a designated work space back up and running in my home is bringing me a lot of joy and peace.

My “office” has been mostly rotating bags and boxes between my car, garage, dining room table, and bedroom these days. And the organize-obsessed Capricorn in me has not been thriving with this approach. What little things are bringing you peace in your Birth-work?

In case no one has told you recently… you’re doing such a good job! Growing and taking care of humans is the most radical work we can do in this moment. You’re doing amazing!

What’s lifting your spirits? What’s keeping you moving forward? You’ve got a community to tap into, just ask me or any other doula! We love connecting people with local resources and loving connection. ❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹

👋 Hello, and some thoughts from my five-minute walk to the hospital to visit a client.
I am deeply aware of how much privilege is wrapped up in my daily life: where I live, the work I get to do, the safety and access I move through without having to think about it. None of that is accidental, and none of it is evenly distributed.
We are not okay as a country. So many systems meant to protect life, dignity, and family are actively causing harm ! especially to Black, Indigenous, immigrant, disabled, q***r, and low-income communities! The injustice is constant, and it is exhausting.

And still…showing up to births, to families in their most tender, vulnerable moments… keeps grounding me in what this is all for. Witnessing care, resilience, and deep DEEP love in real time is a reminder that people continue to create life and community even when the world makes it unnecessarily hard.

I’m holding both gratitude and rage. Gratitude for the work, the trust, the closeness to these moments. Anger at the systems that make safety, health, and support feel like privileges instead of rights.

There is room for both. In fact, I think we need both? The tenderness that sustains us and the anger that demands SO much more and much better.

Harnessed the sun’s energy 🌅🔮 before teaching how to harness your own 💫🔥 Birth class edition.

Loved witnessing this stunning sunset before covering a pal’s birth class. Who else is on call or covering for folks? Sounds like a busy moment in the birth world.

One of my favorite affirmations to help invite clients back into a space of trust, confidence, and peace: you are not doing this alone - you and your baby are doing this ✨together✨

Pregnancy, labor, birth, breastfeeding, and the whole postpartum journey - it’s all a dance we’re doing with our babies. We can do this together, and we can often let baby lead the way.
