I shared a reel in my stories from a midwife content creator sharing the various stages of labour that midwives view the process of birth falling into, and it got me thinking.

So many women are misled to believe that a midwife or nurse is able to support them and give them through the experience of labour and it's simply not the case.

What happens when women carry this belief, whether it's fed to them in their prenatal care or just not brought up in conversation in their social circles, is a lot of birth trauma.

So many women reach out to me in person, in social gatherings, and in this space and say

🗨️ If only I knew you when I was pregnant
🗨️ I feel like birth just happened to me
🗨️ I want a do-over baby
🗨️ I want a do-over birth
🗨️ I wish I had a doula
🗨️ I wish I had invited more people into my birth

We need to talk about birth realistically with each other, from sister to friend to care provider, why are we leading women to believe going it solo will end well?

Bring in your village!!! You can always tell them to go home if you've got this, but you can't reallyyyy call anyone at the last minute.

What are your thoughts? Did you go it alone? Did you have a positive experience?

Signs you’re approaching ovulation 👇

As ovulation approaches, many women notice subtle but consistent shifts, not because something is happening to the body, but because the body is doing exactly what it is designed to do.

✨ A rise in energy or confidence
🔥 An increase in desire
💧 The presence of fertile cervical mucus

These are not symptoms to manage.
They are signals to observe.

Over time, noticing these patterns helps you understand your fertile window with more clarity and less guesswork.

Fertility becomes much less confusing when you stop predicting and start paying attention.

This is part of learning your body’s language, not overriding it.

What is BBT and why does it matter?
BBT stands for basal body temperature.
It’s your resting temperature first thing in the morning, before you move, speak, or scroll.

Tracking it over time shows you when ovulation has already happened, not when you might ovulate, but when your body has actually done the thing.

That matters because:

• It teaches you how your cycle truly works
• It removes guesswork from fertility
• It shifts you from prediction to understanding

BBT doesn’t control your body.
It listens to it.

When combined with other fertility signs, it becomes part of a bigger picture...one where your body isn’t mysterious or unreliable, but responsive and intelligent.

This is how many women begin to rebuild trust with themselves: Not by outsourcing knowing, but by learning to observe.

If you’ve ever felt disconnected from your cycle, overwhelmed by advice, or unsure who to trust — this is often where clarity starts.

You don’t need to be perfect.
You just need to be curious.

Most people are taught when to ovulate, not how to recognize when ovulation has actually happened.

Fertility becomes much less confusing when you stop guessing and start observing.

If you’re learning your cycle from the ground up, you’ll feel at home here.

This is the part of my cycle where my sensitivity ramps up and I feel everything.
Not in a dramatic way — in a deeply human, deeply honest way.

I don’t always get the classic PMS signs.
No huge bloating, no cramps, no chocolate cravings.
My telltale sign?
My emotions get louder than the rest of the world.

A couple days before this video, I had one of the biggest emotional sheds I’ve had in years.
Totally unexpected.
Totally necessary.
And it left me raw in a way that only the luteal phase can.

That’s how I always know my bl🩸ed is on her way.
My emotions shift first.
They crack open the things I’ve been holding.
They pull me inward.
They force me to listen — really listen — before my body moves into release.

This is why I teach women to track their internal markers, not just the external ones.
Your emotional landscape is part of your cycle.
It’s not random.
It’s not “too sensitive.”
It’s communication.

Your body always tells you what’s coming…
you just have to tune back in.

There’s something enchanted about milkweed seeds.

They crack open their pods like tiny treasure chests, and out float these impossibly soft, floofy, fairy-like threads — each one designed to ride the wind and trust it completely. No forcing. No gripping. Just releasing… and letting nature carry them exactly where they’re meant to land.

Milkweed has always felt like a reminder to soften your edges. To stop trying to control every outcome. To believe that what’s meant for you will find you — sometimes on a breeze you never expected.

Maybe that’s why I love them so much. They’re gentle, whimsical proof that the most powerful things in nature don’t push… they surrender.

Gratitude to all the families at this adorable event! Watching the little ones get their pictures with Santa was adorable!!! I loved having conversations about women's health and their natural options for pregnancy and birth, and of course, spirit babies!

I made a tea latte with my own womb-nourishing herbal blend—cocoa, green cardamom, cinnamon, vanilla bean, rose, damiana, and nettle. 🌿✨ It’s more than a drink; it’s a practice, a moment to tune in to your body, your cycle, and your feminine energy.

For women 35+ who are trying to conceive or simply working on womb health, small rituals like this can help you reconnect, slow down, and honor your body’s natural wisdom. Sip it, smell it, meditate with it—let it remind you that this is your time to nurture yourself from the inside out. 💛

This is the same work I guide in my womb healing and fertility coaching sessions. Creating space, reconnecting to your body, and building momentum for a healthy conception.
