I know that you know exactly what you want...

You know exactly what kind of birth you want.

 

And you know exactly what kind of parent you’re going to be.

Because you’ve already done the research

You already have it all planned out....

 

You've already got everything under control....

And you're not even there yet.

To most people you appear calm, confident and ready to take it all in your stride.

 

But I know you.

Oh, if your Google search bar could talk...

...it would confirm everything I already know about you.

 

It would tell me about all of the times you researched questions you already knew the answer to.

It would reveal all of the ways that you looked for confirmation that your birth and parenting choices are the right ones.

But more than that, it would tell me that you just want to know what you should do.

It would tell me that you just want to do this journey the right way.​​​​

 

It would reveal just how important it is for you keep your grip on all of this.

 

To feel in control in the face of so many unknowns. ​​​

But what if I told you that...

...there's a way to cut through the noise in your own head and get above all of the chatter around you?

A way of finding peace in not knowing exactly how this is all going to turn out.

A way of finding calm even when you're not in complete control.

A way of truly trusting yourself.​​​​

A way of letting go a little, even when the voice in your head is telling to tighten your grip.

The birth of my 2nd child changed everything for me... 

It was fast, furious and way more intense than my first.​

It felt like there was so much less in my control.

 

Yet, during the whole experience I felt more powerful than ever before.

Even when it felt like I was pushing way passed every limit of what I thought I was capable of. Even when it felt too much. Even when I wanted to give up.

 

I knew I was safe.

 

I knew I could trust myself.

 

I knew I could let go.

 

So I did.

And I took that surrender with me as I re-entered new motherhood for a second time. I didn’t resist my experiences in the way that I did first time around and it felt like there was so much more room for joy.

In birth and life afterwards, I didn’t feel like I was having some out of body experience that I just had to get through (like I did the first time). It was all happening for me, rather than to me.

 

That was the very beginning of this work for me.​

Ways to work with me

Come along for the ride...

You probably know this about me by now but I'm so much more than a positive vibes only kinda gal. When it comes to pregnancy, birth and beyond, I'm here for all of it - the good and the hard parts. I'm no longer trying to meet my own unrealistic standards but lean right in to the full range of experiences that I get to have. And most of the time I'm doing it out loud on my Instagram. Come join me?
