Doulas and Birthkeepers you already do incredible work with women to challenge, explore and release their fears as they approach the birth portal.

But are you applying that same wise philosophy to yourself when deciding to support women as they choose to birth outside the medical system?

Of course, it’s never about being absent of fear, that’s not the human experience (or the existence we would want).

But have you had support to tend to those deep and nagging fears that keep reappearing in your mind, holding you back from giving the type of support you want to be ready to give?

- What if I get in trouble?
- What if something goes wrong?
- How do I protect myself and my client?
- What if I make a mistake?

Leaving no stone unturned when it comes to our fears as birthworkers IS the preparation and self-responsibility required to serve women choosing to birth autonomously.

And like birthing women, I promise you, the exploration will set you free ❤️‍🔥

✨SUPPORT FREEBIRTH WITHOUT FEAR✨ the 7 week program for birthworkers ready to tend to their fears and gain confidence and real-world knowledge in how to support women choosing to birth outside the system ❤️‍🔥

You’ve noticed that it’s not just midwives in the system that have become de-skilled in supporting the natural birth of the placenta…

In the whirlwind of fighting and advocacy, after your client has worked their absolute butt off to birth their baby vaginally, you’ve notice that your confidence and conviction seem to falter - just for a moment.

“When was the last time I saw a placenta born naturally again?”, you think to yourself.

Unfortunately, that moment of uncertainty sometimes is the difference between anchoring a woman in her oxytocin, or watching a scene unravel into medicalisation that had been so skilfully side stepped… until now.

Holistic birth workers and Doulas like you are perhaps the only people in the birth world that have the willingness and conviction to rediscover and relearn the fundamental knowledge of how to support women to release their placentas as their bodies were designed to.

Without pharmaceuticals and without other peoples hands on them or in them.

To get to a place where you have such confidence in how to support the process, that the birth of the placenta is never a bonus to your client, simply part of her COMPLETE physiological experience.

✨♥️ NEW EPISODE of The Sovereign Pregnancy Podcast!

What is the real, lived experience of pregnant women who enter the system, consciously leave it and the re-enter it again? What does this process feel like? What does it do to our instincts? Is it possible to remain sovereign going in and out of interactions with maternity care?

Emel shares her story of realizing the rat race of western society she has subscribed to had distracted her from years of opportunity to make the family she and her husband had always wanted.

She talks with us about what it was like automatically entering the maternity system, deciding to intentionally leave it and then re-entering it again during her third trimester and psychedelic attempted freebirth.

Can we have it all? Taking what we want from a system and leaving the rest? Or as she shares so beautifully, does that come at a cost?

Thank you Emel for being so open and honest with us about your deeply personal experience and what’s it like to now be experiencing wild pregnancy in total freedom despite cultural “high risk” labels.

F**k the system right?

It hurt you, it hurt your babies, it hurt the clients you work with, it burnt you a crisp and it continues to hurt women, every day.

Be angry. Feel hate for the system because of it.

But what happens when you choose or choose to support freebirth from this place of anger, hate, fear, trauma? What does that mean for you IF you did decide or need to use that system that you hate so much?

Will you feel failure? Will you feel even more trauma? More anger? A deep depression? What if your intuition told you to access help - but your hate and fear stopped you?
Will you have any idea how to process a birth that went against a plan that you were so sure of?

What if, instead of anger and hate, you made decisions with a deep understanding of what the system IS. What it can do, what it can’t do, what it’s meant to do. Knowing what situations you are willing to enter it and in what situations you are not?

Choosing to make decisions for your birth, from peace.

Decisions that will allow you to do what it is you really want to do at the end of the day - enjoy and focus in on the connection between you, your unborn baby and your growing family.

Gauri has come back to tell us her incredible story ✨🧡

The second ever revisit episode of The Sovereign Pregnancy Podcast is here!

What does it look and feel like to birth alone out of choice?

What does it require to experience an ecstatic, pleasurable birth instead of a painful one?

What does it look like to use your wild pregnancy cultivated intuition to self manage unexpected scenarios and emergencies at home?

What does it look like when you use that intuition to decide when to seek medical care?

Gauri shares all of this and more about her birth experience with her precious daughter.

Before you listen in, I highly recommend listening to her wild pregnancy episode first AND watching her captivating birth video via her bio in

As always, stay curious, open hearted and take what story medicine there is for you here.

Hello to a new Sovereign Pregnancy Podcast Episode!✨

It’s time for the next flurry of women’s stories! Women who are choosing a self-directed pregnancy journey, with themselves and their babies at the centre❤️‍🔥

Today I’m speaking with Teh an ex-nurse,

(yup medical professionals leaving the system left right and centre over here!)

who joins us in her 36th week of her second sovereign pregnancy.

- How did she go from medical nurse to hospital doula to freebirth doula?
- What are the challenges Irish women face with their obstetric system?
- I’m an Irish woman! How do I navigate our system to experience a self-directed pregnancy?
- Can and should our partners be able to do it all in our birth space?
- What would it be like if you said yes to loving, mother-like care in birth and postpartum?

And of course - what her autonomous pregnancy journey has been like so far for her 🧡

Thanks for listening in! Xx

I just held a Birth Debrief for a woman who birthed 19 years ago.

19 years.

She told me that honestly, with her life as it was, her family as it was, her health as it was - she did not have the capacity to look into the face of what she experienced - until now.

It took her 2 decades to say, yes, I’m ready to heal.

Not just for her, but for her child now grown into a woman who will one day choose to start a family…either within the same cycles of abuse, or out of them.

Spoilers - the revelations, things she learnt about herself, anger, epiphanies were no less life changing when explored all those years later.

In case you were sitting there, wondering if healing was out there for you - even now ♥️

Head to my ✨HIGHLIGHTS✨ to see how I hold Birth Debriefs. DM me if you think I might be the right space holder for you, if you’re ready x

There is a place in the birth debrief, for villainising others.

For villainising the violent patriarchal obstetrician, the failing maternity system, the homebirth midwife who pressured you and disturbed your process, the wise woman who didn’t hold you how you wanted, your partner who lost their nerve when it mattered most, even extreme freebirth ideology.

There is a place to feel furious, betrayed, livid and resentful.

Feel it all.

But when you’re ready to actually heal.

To actually move forward.

To actually feel peace.

The real work in healing our trauma is understanding deeply, why we made the decisions we did about our births and how we’ve been making decisions about our bodies all. our. lives.

It’s jarring. But it will give you the things you’ve been longing for since it all happened - long lasting healing and peace.

❤️‍🩹

The way I hold Birth Debriefs has changed.

Together, you will not only have a container to speak your story outloud and uncensored, but TIME in the weeks following to explore fully and deeply all the reveals itself to you.

Because sharing the story is nothing without integration.

Head to felicityinbirth.com to explore this offering. Or DM me to book a free clarity call to see if this is the right container for you xx

Birth Workers - find and network with your local INDEPENDENT breast feeding practitioners.

So that when your clients are put into these coercive ultimatums based in no physiological logic and are denied care as a result - it literally doesn’t matter - because you KNOW the women who are able to prioritise their baby and help.

Spoilers - the majority of independent midwives release tongues ties regardless of vitamin K administration status.

Want to know the actual research evidence basis to Vitamin K - has a user friendly book to help you support women to make informed decisions.

“…and what would happen if you believed it?” ~ Leisa Masters, Birth Business Coach.

One of my favourite take aways from the 3 day free training .masters held this week.

I haven’t spoken to a single birth worker who isn’t brimming with passion, ideas and possibilities for what they want to create and how they want to serve women.

Be yeh, putting it into practice on some days feels totally tangible and like fire in the belly. And other days, when we don’t believe this - we need to be able to turn to women who’ve been in this work, who know the skills, to pull us back to it.

Because if we don’t believe this, how will those dreams buzzing in our consciousness ever really happen?!

Leisa is running her FREE Masterclass on Confident Selling THIS Monday, March 3rd. Taking you from ick to ease with selling your services.

Again - I’m gonna be there, learning these free skills so I can keep on this path of what I WANT from this passion in me.

Link in bio to sign up!! 🔥

At the end of this Masterclass Leisa will be opening the cart for her once a year, 10 week programme Becoming a Birth Worker 🧡 this IS the course I would be doing if I was starting my birth worker journey now from the beginning.

Also exciting - if you know this course is for you and you buy through my affiliate link you will also get 3 incredible bonuses and live 1-2-1 support from me!! Head to my stories to find out more about these or DM me.

Love to you on the journey xx
