Energetics of Birth

A 1 day educational workshop for parents dedicated to the wisdom of an embodied birth TOGETHER

“There is no hierarchy when it comes to birth. There is no failure in birth. There is no right or wrong way to birth. Birth is not a competition, it is however our responsibility.”
— Y. Clarke

We design our birth through the choice to educate ourselves, follow our intuition and not allow others to take away our power.

This 1 day course has been years in the making. It started as I embarked on my journey as a doula/birth witness and revealed itself shortly after I gave birth to my own daughter. My sovereign, wild, free birth opened me up. The wisdom I received prior to my daughter’s emergence allowed me to experience an ecstatic, liberating, and transformational birth.

As a certified doula, intuitive healer, and medicine woman, it is my honor to walk with many parents on their journey into trusted partnership. It is with great humility and respect that I share the education, lived experience, and wisdom that my Husband and I have cultivated together to BIRTH IN TRUST. I look forward to BEing with you on February 22, 2025.
