On the 14th of April Pania and I mutually agreed that I would leave The Reclaiming Womanhood Podcast and no longer host or contribute to the podcast in any way. I was logged out of all accounts. We had pre recorded some episodes that came out after this date.

Whilst pulling back from the podcast, I was and am going through a lot personally and also decided at the time to pull back from instagram and all social media. I needed to distance myself from the dystopian world of constant sharing and practice being present with my kids and myself. My followers may have noticed a sharp decline in my online activity which is only slowly picking up now, when and where I can

During this time some clips from the podcast blew up on instagram with hundreds of comments, some of these comments were perceived as racist and ill admit, I was not keeping up to date by checking or reading them, by this time I wasn't checking my phone much and not a part of running the podcast.

I want to officially denounce myself from any racist comments made by the podcast. I was not involved in this episode, the comments, nor would I EVER make or condone these kinds of comments.

I am very 'politically correct' when it comes to racism and generally defensive of all minorities. I have previously done advocacy work in this area, consistently call out racism if I see it, and outwardly condemn racism.

I admit and take full responsibility that I have been complacent in regards to these comments on the podcasts instagram.

I know complacency is complicity. This is not my intention whatsoever.

My intention is to protect my own mental wellbeing and that of my kids, at some points of my life this means fighting for minorities but at this current point in my life it means completely detaching.

My intention for the podcast was always in good faith. I can not (and should not) be held accountable for any actions from the podcast after I was removed from all accounts.

These allegations have caused a lot of distress to me and my family and I hope everyone can see that this argument is not mine to have

Your birth environment can either support or disrupt that hormonal flow.
That’s why I included a whole section on each hormone needed for birth and how to optimize them in my Sacred Birth Workbook — to help you create a space that encourages safety, softness and surrender.

Using your 5 senses we explore how you want to feel in labour – and what to surround yourself with to activate that feeling.

✨ Candles or crystals?
✨ Silence or music?
✨ A note from your child or a blessing from your doula?

This is your reminder that your environment shapes your hormones — and your hormones shape your birth.

This section alone is worth its weight in gold 💫
It’s in the full workbook on Etsy — link in bio.

For the mumma planning her birth with intention and soul.

A guide that doesn’t tell you what to do, but reminds you that you already know.

✨ This is for the woman who wants to birth in trust, not fear.
✨ For the one tuning out the noise and tuning in to her body and baby.
✨ For the one who knows birth is sacred.

You can find it in my Etsy shop (linked in bio) 💫

✨ Your birth space matters. Not for the aesthetics — but for how it allows your body to open, your heart to feel safe, and your mind to let go.

When I think of what makes a space right for birth, I always come back to these three feelings:

💫 Safe
💫 Private
💫 Sacred

Whether you’re birthing at home or creating a little sanctuary within a hospital room — you deserve this kind of environment.

It’s not about perfection. It’s about intention.
