about me
I’m an Intuitive Doula who specializes in Holistic Fertility and Postpartum services. My journey toward this work started with my own healing through reiki, yoga, and somatic work. These modalities serve as a framework for how I support the collective.
I do this work to support community, and to improve health and birth outcomes. Doing this work I affirm my ancestors and their lineage as midwives and doulas. Birth work is healing work for womb holders and us birth workers too.
