Motherhood has been the most transformative, exhausting, beautiful, healing, chaotic, and love filled journey of my life.

As Mother’s Day comes to an end, I can’t help but sit back and think about how lucky I am to be the mom to five incredible daughters. From almost 21 to my very last baby turning 6 tomorrow, every single one of them has shaped me into the woman I am today.

There were so many moments in life where I had to learn how to become the kind of mother I wished for. The kind of mother I wanted my girls to always feel safe with, loved by, and unconditionally supported through every stage of life.

While losing my mom almost 21 years ago will always leave a mark on my heart, motherhood became something different for me. It became the place where I built the love, softness, connection, and family I always longed for. These girls are my greatest gift. My entire purpose.

Watching them grow has been the honor of my lifetime, even on the hardest days. From raising daughters stepping fully into adulthood to still holding onto the magic of my youngest’s little years, I feel so incredibly grateful for every chapter.

Somehow tomorrow, my baby turns 6. The final little chapters of my baby years slowly fading while I try to hold onto every last piece of the magic. Motherhood is messy, loud, emotional, exhausting, beautiful, sacred work, and I am endlessly grateful for every single moment of it.

To all the incredible mothers and families we have had the honor of supporting through Moon & Stars Doulas this past year, thank you for trusting us during some of the most vulnerable, beautiful, and transformative moments of your lives. It is truly an honor to walk alongside so many amazing mothers as they grow, heal, and step into their confidence.

Happy Mother’s Day to the women breaking cycles, healing, loving fiercely, and creating the kind of home they once needed themselves.

Since we’re all tucked away cozy on this icepocalypse weekend, I thought this would be the perfect time to softly announce…

I’m so excited to finally share that myself and my team are behind the planning and launch of Austin’s postnatal retreat, The Moonlit Nest! Along with my incredible team at Moon & Stars Doulas, we’ve been dreaming, planning, and designing a truly special experience for families navigating the early weeks of parenthood.

We’re thrilled to launch a pilot retreat this spring (April), with hopes to continue into summer sessions and eventually create a long-term residency where new parents can rest, learn, and connect in a supportive, nurturing space.

Behind the scenes, we’re collaborating with some of the most talented Austin professionals, OBs, IBCLCs, massage therapists, chefs, postpartum self-care experts, and more to create a retreat experience that is holistic, practical, and deeply restorative. Our goal is to combine knowledge, support, and comfort so families feel fully cared for during those precious early months.
This retreat is all about community and collaboration, and we want your input!

Whether you’re a professional in the birth/postpartum field or a family expecting or recently welcoming a baby, or just want to share your feedback, we’ve included a short survey so you can share your ideas and help shape what The Moonlit Nest can be.
We’re just getting started, but we can’t wait to bring this vision to life and create something truly special for Austin families.
