Why Pregnancy is an Amazing Time to Learn to Be In Your Body

Jan 20 2025 46 mins

There is no experience like growing a baby for deciding to feel the body and tuning into her! This is a slow process, with time and space and healing cannot be rushed. I share more about how I think this work can benefit pregnant women and mamas specifically, so tune in and see what you […]

The Doppler Vs Fetoscope for Hearing the Baby’s Heartbeat

Dec 29 2024 61 mins

I’m back here with the last podcast of 2024 to blab about a real nerd topic. Whether you’re the mom or the midwife or student, which is better, the doppler or the fetoscope? There is a lot of nuance here as always and things to consider; from the why and when to the subtleties of […]

Making Birth Beautiful Again

Dec 04 2024 42 mins

Sharing my honest process here and reminiscing about the first birth I ever attended alone, 17 years ago! My sister and my nephew gave me this honor (or rather, the Universe did) and I enjoyed reflecting on this story and the relative innocence. Can we regain innocence and a naive nature for something we know […]

Sharing Some New Insights with You

Nov 15 2024 52 mins

It’s been a weird month that feels both long and short! This is primarily a personal update and also a share about three things (I tried to keep it to 3!) that I came away with during my last intense somatic training. It does tie back to birth and birth work in many many ways […]

Calling My Cervix Back to Me

Oct 27 2024 52 mins

Ah, this was so healing to share! I tell the story of having half my cervix taken many many years ago. The story defies what actually happened after (birthing 10 babies!) and I feel like it’s such a powerful testament to our bodies, beliefs and our Soul path. Our bodies know how to heal and […]

Remembering Our Divine Purpose with Donna Maria Camps

Oct 14 2024 71 mins

I am so honored to have recorded this chat with my mentor and elder, Donna Maria. I began life studies with her over 4 years ago and this glimpse into her stories and life and perspective is only a fraction of her wisdom. Her way of seeing is what people NEED at this time, in […]

Wisdom of the Womb with Felicia Sokol

Oct 10 2024 60 mins

I loved having this chat with another of our wisdom keepers from the Sacred Birth Certificate program. I love Felicia’s way of speaking about what sacred is, her varied experiences of serving women and a quick swerve into the blood mysteries and the wisdom of the womb. I think you will love this conversation and […]

Deep Rest and Our Energetic Fertility

Oct 06 2024 57 mins

Whew, it’s been a big week with so many realizations and new awareness. I share the biggest ones with you here, around the need for really resting the body INTERNALLY and seeing what fabulous things flow out of that. It’s been such a cool experience to see what those things are for me, and to […]

The Creative Impulse With Verena Borell

Sep 30 2024 76 mins

In this new podcast, I talk with another of our wisdom keepers from our Sacred Birth Certificate program. Verena is an evolutionary astrologist and shares about her own creative spark and process. It won’t come as a surprise, but life imitates birth and birth is just one of the creative forces that may be available […]
