my mission
Finding peace & power while realigning with the intended design
It's my mission to walk with women as they rediscover how to have an intuitively aligned, genuinely powerful human experience during their pregnancy and birth. I believe an experience like this requires the mother to make all her decisions in full confidence- owning her choices & outcomes, with a deep understanding that the experience is a co-creation between her & God.
I guide pregnant women to strategically shift out of fear & doubt, and confidently step into their role as MOTHER, just as God intended it. I’m here for mothers who desire an unmedicated, physiologic birth, who are ready to take responsibility & intentional action toward resolving their subconscious fear & doubt. I’m here for the mothers who know, deep down, that there is an incongruency between what they say they want for their birth experience and what they believe is actually possible for them. I’m here for the mother who is rocked with fear of the unknown, fear that this birth might end up like her last one. She’s trying to break through the years of societal conditioning around birth being labeled as an innately terrible life event… but something inside is telling her that being fully present (mentally and physically) is God’s intended design. She knows if He created it, then there is something special in it for her to discover. I’m here for the first-time-mother & for the mother who has birthed before, but her experience was disempowering or down right traumatic. Just like many other women, this was what I experienced with my first two births, despite intellectually knowing how birth worked (as a registered nurse & a natural birth nerd).
My first two births were planned homebirths. My first ended in a transfer to the hospital where I had a non-emergent C-section. The second ended in a non-emergent transfer to the hospital for pain control, where I had a heavily medicated vaginal birth. My third birth is the one where I finally got it. I got my undisturbed, powerful homebirth. However, I came to discover that what I really “got” wasn’t just a birth at home…what I “got” was a complete shift in my conscious & subconscious mind through the work I did during my pregnancy. I went into that birth with a deep knowing that it was going to go exceptionally well, before it ever started. That birth experience was the most empowering, meaningful experience of my life. This massive mind shift happened when I combined my years of studying & attending physiological births with a deeper understanding of neuroscience and psychology. This allowed me to understand how closely connected my subconscious beliefs and my birth experiences were. And deeper so, I came to discover what it truly means to be a daughter of God, and how pivotal this belief is as you labor and birth your baby. He is for us. We are BLESSED to be women who are able to birth life into this world. Thank you Jesus!
My in-person birth education classes, prenatal birth mentorship program, blog, & birth doula services (serving South/ Central IN) are designed to walk you through a gentle, but vastly deep shift in your mindset as you prepare for birth. I’m here to bridge the gap between what you say you want and what you actually believe is possible for you, on a subconscious level. This belief will always shine through during your prenatal and birthing experience…and these experiences are the precursors to your motherhood journey. It all matters! Let’s give this season the care and attention it deserves.
MY VISION
Merging informed decision making with intuitive, Holy Spirit-led decision making
I visualize this space (in person & online) as a hub where pregnant women come together to rediscover the joy & power that is ALWAYS available to them. I welcome women into my space who know an unmedicated, physiological birth is for them, but they have some mental obstacles that need to be addressed. I am a woman who has walked in your shoes. I’ve battled the fear & doubt (for years), but then I humbly faced it head on with intentional, strategic effort. I want to walk with women through the same process I went through & watch them find their confidence & joy. I envision a community of humble, yet boldly confident women who do the work. Who own their experiences, and who then go out and share it with other pregnant women- with their niece, their friend, or their daughter. The culture around birth needs to change. As Ina May Gaskins once said, “We are the only mammals on Earth who doubt our ability to give birth.” Changing what birth means within ourselves on a subconscious level is the first, foundational piece that must transform for better births to happen. I pray that through my work, I can help women make this transformation within their own minds, and then let it spread like wild fire.
