The words “failed” do not belong anywhere in conversation about pregnancy, birth or postpartum 🙅🏽‍♀️

We have midwives, hospitals, birth centers, OBGYN’s and MFMs for good reason! In a percentage of cases, they are all very much needed 🧑🏼‍⚕️👩🏽‍⚕️👨🏾‍⚕️ we as birth workers and families are GRATEFUL for these resources being readily available to families when they are truly needed.

The #1 cause of home birth transfers is maternal exhaustion. This is why it is essential to rest, hydrate and nourish your body during early labor. A hospital transfer from a homebirth is by no means a failure. It is the responsible, proper use of the resources that are available to keep families safe. Please don’t place this in a negative light.💜💡

If you've got an hour to spare in the evenings jump on to this! 💜

I’ve been feeling the itch to get back into teaching — and this felt like the right place to start.

Birth Power Hour is a free one-hour online session to help you feel more prepared, more confident, and more in control heading into birth.

Whether you’re planning a physiological birth, open to pain relief, or not sure yet — this session will give you tools and mindset shifts that actually make a difference.

It’s the kind of prep I wish everyone had.
