I’ve been obsessed with birth since I was ten years old. Fast forward a couple of decades, and that fascination turned into a full-fledged career: birth doula, private childbirth educator, and now — creator of a digital course that’s been years in the making.

Part 2 of a series on using the BRAINS acronym and these are all about you because while the clinical side of decision-making is important, so is what feels right to you.

A free preview from my online course featuring a decision-making tool that helps you slow down, ask the right questions, and feel damn good about the choices you make.

Trusting the process of birth can feel daunting, especially when surrounded by narratives of fear, risk, and medicalized urgency. But your body was designed for this.

More reflections on the discussion I had with Vanessa on the Breath & Birth Co. Podcast.

Birth is unpredictable, and no one wants to feel like they failed if things don’t go as expected. Whether you write out preferences or not, the choices you make—or don’t —will shape your birth experience.

I got to be on the podcast, Birth and Breath Co. recently! The conversation was rich and I walked away feeling even more passionate about and grateful for this work.

This course was born (pun absolutely intended) out of years of listening to birthing people say, “I wish someone had told me that.” Well, now someone is—and it’s me.

Too often, parents enter labor without the information they need to make choices that align with their values and preferences. This is why childbirth education is crucial.
