My Powerful Birth

My Powerful Birth I have experienced early pregnancy loss, 2 hospital births, 2 planned homebirths, one of which was a water birth. You will find I am a birth video junkie.

I empower expectant families to seek their ideal birth and postpartum by facilitating authentic conversation, challenging preconceived ideas and supporting informed decisions along the way. Join our Group

Crowning Glory came to fruition because of my love of pregnancy, birthing time and postpartum phase. Because I sadly cannot populate the world

with my own children, I have decided to help women, and families through the immense changes that happen when welcoming a baby. A huge change in my thinking came after the birth of my last baby where I (finally) fully accepted help from others. I was able to nurse my newborn undisturbed many times because someone was there to pick up my kids, my mess and my spirit. I am interested natural health, fitness, nutrition, breastfeeding and mental health of new and expectant moms. I love a good coffee, red wine and a great belly laugh. Enjoy my page!

📍 Pitt Meadows
🗓 April 18 + 25
🕐 1:00–6:00 PM

This is for you if you’re getting close to birth and realizing…

“I don’t actually feel as ready as I thought I would.” If you feel like most information online either overwhelms you, or leaves big gaps.

In these two days, we walk through together:
• how birth actually unfolds (physiology)
• how to move through labour without panic taking over
• how to understand what’s being offered or suggested in pregnancy, birth, or postpartum
• how to include your partner in a real, grounded way
• what matters postpartum (that people don’t usually talk about enough)

You’ll leave knowing how to think, how to decide, and how to move through your birth.

If you’ve been waiting to book a prenatal class…don't sleep on it

Are you pregnant again after a cesarean (or considering becoming pregnant again)… and quietly wondering what your actual options are?

Our My Powerful VBAC Class is a 2-hour live group class where we walk through VBAC, HBAC, CBAC + TOLAC in a way that actually makes sense, so you and your partner can make decisions you feel steady in, and that are aligned with your family's values and wants.

Inside we cover:
• what actually impacts VBAC success
• how to choose a provider who aligns with what you want
• how to navigate the VBAC vs repeat cesarean decision
• real risks + what to pay attention to
• what recovery looks like in both directions

Partners are highly encouraged to attend with you on Zoom.

✨ Last live group class: $49
(No replay available)

If this is your next perinatal chapter, don’t go into it guessing.

Thank-you Kayla & partner for having us as your childbirth educators last year 🤎 Hear what Kayla had to say about taking My Powerful Birth in prep for their little one arriving...

"We are beyond grateful for our michelle our birthday coach. From the very beginning, she made us feel deeply supported, informed, and calm. She guided us through every possibility so that when things didn’t go exactly as planned, nothing felt shocking or scary—we felt prepared and empowered. Because of her guidance, my partner knew exactly how to support me and was truly present throughout the entire experience. Our birth was beautiful, grounded, and full of trust, and a huge part of that is thanks to her. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience." - Kayla J.

There’s the part you see…
and then there’s everything you don’t.

This week is about recognizing the work that rarely gets named.

🤳The texts sent at midnight.
📆The plans quietly cancelled.
🎒The bags packed weeks in advance.
The constant “what if” thinking so you don’t have to.
😔The emotional load.
😫The physical exhaustion.
💕The witnessing of one of life’s biggest thresholds… over and over again.

Doulas don’t just show up when labour starts.

🥹They are already holding you long before that.
And often… long after.

If you’ve had a Doula walk alongside you,
you know.

Tell us about them.
Tag them.
🥰Let them be seen here.

Birth is not just something to “get through.”
It’s something you move through

physically, emotionally, mentally… and spiritually.

And most families are only prepared for one version of it:
●timelines
● protocols
● what’s “standard”

But what about:
❤️What this moment asks of you?
❤️How you want to meet it?
❤️Who you become on the other side?

That’s the part that often gets missed, and then people wonder why they feel disconnected from their own experience.

If you’re pregnant right now or supporting someone who is, I want to ask you something:
Have you actually been prepared for birth… or just informed about it?

There’s a difference.

Inside The Prenatal Academy, we don’t just talk about what happens to you in birth.
We look at how to walk into it with clarity, steadiness, and choice.
If that’s something you’ve been craving, this is your place.

Did you hear!?
Our next cohort starts April 13th 🤍

If you’ve been wanting deeper conversations, real information, and a space to process birth in a way that aligns with your values… this is your invitation

03/10/2026

Information matters in birth. But information alone isn’t always what makes the difference.

You can read the books, listen to the podcasts, and take the classes, and still feel unsure in the moment.

Because what really matters is learning how to process the information, how to understand what it means for you, and how to integrate it with your own values, instincts, and circumstances.

Birth advocacy isn’t about memorizing facts.
It’s about understanding your options, asking the right questions, and making decisions that align with what matters most to you and your family.

When information and values come together, that’s where clarity happens.

If you want deeper guidance around pregnancy, birth, and postpartum, including how to navigate information, advocacy, and decision making, Our Powerful Birth April cohort is opening soon.
