Happy Mother’s Day to those celebrating today 🤍🦋 I always ask my expecting mothers and moms this question: What kind of Mother do you want to BE? When I answer this question for myself, the answer always seems to elaborate!i want to BE my children’s EVERYTHING as they are my everything. I am learning that BEing a Mother is FAR from easy. It’s been a Journey of REDISCOVERING myself. Undoing and redoing. RECREATING. REDEFINING. Some days are easier than others and other days are so challenging that I wonder if Im doing the right things. YET, amidst it ALL, whats fuelling me everyday is the responsibility that I am raising the future and knowing that all this growth will is nurtured with unweaving LOVE. I use to think that I was the teacher but they show me that they too are teaching me so much. About LIFE, about whats truly important. I look at my kids and always give thanks that they choose me to BE the most important woman in their life and God who BELIEVES in me to raise them good. As the years pass and WE GROW TOGETHER, I AM forever grateful and honoured to celebrate this special day, with them for them 🤍🦋 ❤️

🤍🦋This is your calling and I’m so glad you answered🦋🤍All journeys come to an end and continue forward in a different direction and each journey, I take with my moms is a journey of growth, not only for them, but also for me. 🤍 I’m truly going to miss spending this time with the girls and their mom, but I know in my heart that this Momma Bear is ready to go off on her own with her girls and shes gonna BE great.

OLIVIA, words cannot express just how grateful I am to have had you by my side these past six months. Your guidance, energy, honesty, intuition, and love have been so invaluable in my postpartum journey. I appreciate how in tune you are with my needs as a new mom. I truly don’t know how I would have managed without you. You are a breath of fresh air that I needed when my chest felt tight. Thank you for being an amazing support to me and guiding me on how to be the mom I want to be. The girls and I will miss you so much. It’s not a goodbye, but I’d rather see you later. Your future clients are in the absolute best of hands. This is your calling and I’m so glad you answered. Wishing you all the love and light in your journey.🦋🤍

My heart is filled with gratitude and fulfilment after reading such a heartfelt thank you. This reaffirms to me that I AM on the right path of service 🤍

The path of entrepreneurship is far from easy and many entrepreneurs grapple with this thought and question “when do you know when its time to let go, when its time to move on and explore another path?” The answer can vary for each individual however, at the end of our conversation, my Mentee responded “Based on everything we’ve discussed, I think when the passion fades, that’s probably my time.”
Entrepreneurship demands a profound understanding of how although failure may be bitter it gifts us appreciation for the sweetness of our successes.
Believing in yourself
Practicing self-awareness
Valuing your worth
Listening to your inner voice
Discovering innovative ways to progress
Avoiding constant comparisons with others and focusing on your own path
Celebrating every win, no matter how small
And perhaps the most challenging aspect of all:
Showing up each day, regardless of circumstances, to embrace what ignites your passion.
Circling back to the question, the novel “The Death of a Salesman” came to mind. This story delves into themes of failure, shattered dreams, self-doubt, and a waning passion: a reality that some entrepreneurs experience. HOWEVER UNLIKE the novel, this post WANTS to remind you how important it is to keep your passion ALIVE. Ask yourself, Would you rather succeed at doing something you hate, thats leave you unfulfilled, unhappy or would you rather fall, learn and grow from doing something that yes, isn’t easy but sets your soul on fire?
Times are not easy I know. And maybe we need to do the mundane work to sustain our lives. However, if there is a piece of you that can cultivate your passion, then I encourage you to keep it burning. 🔥

“Love is wholeness, wholeness is balance, balance is well-being. Well-being is freedom from disease” Dr Mikao Usui..

What greater gift is there then the gift of LOVE. The gift to SHARE with you this gift of wellBEing.

I am 🤍
I am carrying LOVE within me
I am gifting LOVE to the world

Was a mantra that I heard in my mind as I practised Reiki on an expecting mother. Such a powerful yet gentle affirmation for the anticipation of a new life.

There IS such a profound connection in each treatment when we listen closely, feel deeply and honour ourselves wholehearted. 🤍 connect for more information and to schedule a treatment with me 🦋

SHEDDING 🤍🦋You don’t realize how much you need to shed until you look back at what you’re holding onto. Be a beautiful or not, Be it people.. memories.. objects.. beliefs.. stories… beat it Whatever .. let it BE where it belongs. It’s true, you can’t look forward if you’re looking backwards. The past is in the past. I am in the present looking forward. Thank them for that moment in time, and then move on. 🤍🦋

Postnatal Support🤍🦋 Some tasks for some may BE so simple but overwhelming for others. 🦋 asking for support is not a sign of weakness, its a symbol of strength. It takes A LOT for a person to teach out for help. Women always joke about how men never stop and ask for directions. Well many expecting mothers and mothers never stop and ask for help. “ Guilt: Well if I’m home all day with a baby then I should be able to do things all by myself. Comparison: I see so many other women do it then I should be able to do it as well. Self-sufficient: I don’t need to invest in help. It’s a waste. Selfless: as long as everyone else is OK then that means I’m doing a good job. In a society where we are expected to do all and be all for everyone. Something that is UNATTAINABLE for anyone. Yes, we all have different circumstances, however I encourage that whatever your circumstances may be always seek to be supported.

I support women in their journey. Through my own life experiences and much education to support, I know and feel many of the challenges that women face. As a Doula, here I am helping a well-rounded Mom who is more than capable of doing so many things, prep meals for herself and her children. Such a simple task, but so simply powerful. What more beautiful gift than to give the gift of nourishment to a family. What more beautiful gift is it to help nourish a mother mind, body and spirit so that she can feel and be present for herself, for her children, for her family.

I’m here to support and if you would like more information or know of someone that may need to be supported, please share and connect. Namaste.🤍🦋

“Surround yourself with strong women, women more beautiful than you, smarter than you, and don’t envy them, admire them.

Surround yourself with good women who know how to listen, who know how to care, from whom you learn to relate to the world, women who teach you their power.

Surround yourself with women to weave an invisible web, a web for other women, so you don’t let them fall, so they feel the collective hug, so they don’t feel alone or crazy.

Surround yourself with women who embrace their shadow, who don’t apologize for being light, who are aware of their beauty and that they are alive.

Surround yourself with irreverent and brave women, women fighters who open the way and tear down walls, women of reference, women who do not ask for permission, who build their homes with the same hands, with which they cradle and caress.

Surround yourself with women who help you live as you are, who give you confidence and affection, who remind you that they are all one.”

Flow. Simplicity. Stillness. Purity.. all this all a feather falls on my path..

“just go with the flow, dont stress it. Keep it simple! Dont give your energy to stuff that does you no good. Have fun. Laugh. Enjoy the stillness. Life’s too short and time flies. Honour yourself and Be who you are.”

BE fluid. It’s easy to say yet a challenge to practice the art of letting go. I say it is an art because sometimes you need to get creative with what letting go and going with the flow looks for you. In a world where security and stability is measured by what’s tangible it’s truly a challenge to feel secure and stable when you are asked to go with the flow.

BE simple. Keeping things simple and not feeding into people, places or things that don’t align with you energetically can also be challenging. We don’t always get to choose who and what is around us, but we do get to choose how we react. Where you can declutter your life of thoughts, feelings, behaviors, habits whatever whoever that weighing you down. When you let go of what you can live without you make space to invite what you want to live within.

BE still. Being busy doesn’t mean you’re productive, you don’t need to be in so many places at once. Being present and enjoying the moment is one of the most productive actions that we could ever take. It’s true time flies and enjoying and savouring the moments that we are presently in is what makes all the difference in our future.

BE kind to your soul. We are not all energetically aligned. They’re going to be people and places that you enjoy being a part of, embrace them. Refrain from trying to fit into “spaces” that you’ve either outgrown or are not in alignment with. It is a disservice to your soul for you to be someone that you are not. Not honouring who you are, not BEing who you are is an act of unkindness to your soul.

I try to hold it still to capture this photo yet the breeze lifts it and laughingly I grasp it again and again in my hands.

Happy National Women’s Day 🤍 let’s acknowledge where we have been, how far we have come and our aspirations for the future.

As a women, daughter, sister, mother I celebrate the divine feminine. Today and everyday I do my best to lead by example for the women in my life , the women that I support but most importantly for my daughter Elenia. I made a promise to her that the cycle stops with me and that in me healing I will support her to BE the girl, woman, person she wants to BE. I will BE her anchor and her ally on her Journey and always encourage her to shine. To never allow her fire to dim.

Today we celebrate each other, women supporting women to BE SEEN & HEARD. SUPPORTing one another on this Journey called LIFE. Women supporting women, a community that understands and empathizes and encourages and helps each other RISE. May we celebrate EVERYDAY our infinte abilities, our uniqueness and never feel that we need to dishonour who we are mind, body & spirit in order to share and make a difference in this world, our world 🦋🤍 The light ladies that resides within me HONOURS the light and love within you. Shine your LIGHT.

Just a convo with one of my moms.

LIV: “Hey Momma, I was thinking on my way home and I wanted to thank you for your TRUST in me to support you on this journey. Motherhood is FAR from linear and however your journey twists and turns, I want you to know that you are doing great. You are a beautiful person inside and out. Thank you for your kind words today, they truly reaffirm for me that I AM DOING something worth doing. Much love and light always. If you need me you know where to find me. 🦋🤍”

Momma: “🥹🫶🏾 thank you for those beautiful words Olivia. You’re definitely fulfilling a much needed space with supporting new moms ❤️ you always give me something to look forward to on Tuesdays with your companionship”

I remember as a first time, mom how terrifying it was to go out with my newborn. Could imagine this mom that I support who has two beautiful twins! In a conversation, she and I were having she said to me that my services go over and beyond what someone would expect from a Doula.

My response to her was this “my intention is to help you navigate motherhood, and if it’s going out to Costco, getting out of the house and grabbing a coffee, going for a walk, and helping you with your baby so you could enjoy anything other than staying home in your PJs then that’s the support you need and that’s the support I will give you”🤍

No one can prepare you for life after with baby, but I sure can support you and help you enjoy it🤍🦋
