Before bassinets and blankets…
There is you.
Your heart beat, your skin, your breath.

This is their safety.
Skin-to-skin isn’t just bonding, it’s biology.

Your body knows your baby.
And your baby knows you.
Keep them close. Let your warmth do what it was made to do. ✨

A place to pause.
To ask, to feel, to remember.
The Journey to Motherhood Journals aren’t about filling pages.

They’re about returning to yourself.
✨ Inside each one:
— Gentle questions to meet you where you are
— Spacious prompts for birth preparation
— Pages for fears, for hopes, for what no one else sees

These aren’t checklists.
They’re companions.
Soft guides, written to be lived with.
So you can walk your journey your way—
with trust, reflection, and deep inner knowing.

💛 Included with the course
The Journey to Motherhood
Out soon.

How do we reclaim birth in a system that was never designed with our wisdom in mind?
When institutions are rooted in fear, it’s no wonder so many of us enter labour carrying tension, doubt, and silence in our bodies.
But here’s what I’ve seen, time and again…
Physiology speaks.
Even when the room forgets how to listen.
Even when the system resists it.
Even when the path home to your body feels far away.
This post isn’t here to demonise care providers, many are doing their best within rigid frameworks.

But it is here to ask:
✨ What would it take to rebuild birth spaces that trust the intelligence of the body?
✨ What if evidence-based care began with reverence for the evidence within us?

Your Body Was Never Broken.
a love note to the wisdom already within you
Not everything needs to be taught.

Some truths live in the marrow.
The remembering is quiet.
It happens in goosebumps… in tears we can’t explain.
It’s the breath we take when someone says,

You were made for this.
This post isn’t about biology.
It’s about trust.
The kind that can’t be measured, but moves mountains.
Or births them.

🤍 Trust your body. Trust your baby.
The blueprint is already within you.

Dear Partners,

Words carry weight in labour.
Even the most well-meaning ones can land in a way that pulls her out of herself.
Each of these can stir doubt.
And doubt is loud when you’re deep in labour.
But your presence , calm, grounded, unwavering
can speak volumes without saying much at all.

She needs your belief more than your worry.
Your trust more than your timeline.
🤍 Steady eyes. Gentle touch. Breath beside her.
That’s the language she understands.

Share this with your partner, your doula, your birth team.

Let’s prepare not just for the birth…
but for how we hold the space around it.
