🌍💙 Today is World Diabetes Day — a global reminder to take charge of our health, raise awareness, and support the millions of people living with diabetes.

💡 Did you know?

Over 500 million adults worldwide live with diabetes — and many don’t even know it.

Type 2 diabetes can often be prevented or delayed with healthy eating, regular exercise, and early screening.

Type 1 diabetes isn’t preventable, but with proper care and support, people can live full, healthy lives.

🩸 This year’s theme: Access to Diabetes Care.
No matter where you live, everyone deserves the knowledge, tools, and treatment to manage diabetes effectively.

💙 Let’s spread awareness, fight stigma, and encourage regular checkups.
Your health matters — today and every day.

❤️ November is Native American Heritage Month — a time to honor the history, culture, and ongoing contributions of Indigenous peoples across the United States.

This month and every month, let’s celebrate the resilience, creativity, and wisdom of Native communities — and recognize the importance of preserving their stories and traditions for future generations.

✨ Take time to learn, listen, and uplift Indigenous voices.

Breast cancer screening is an important part of your health care. Screening recommendations vary based on your risk factors, age, and if you identify as trans or non-binary. The U.S. Preventative Services Task Force (USPSTF) recommends mammograms every other year for ages 40-74. The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) recommends anyone with an average risk has a mammogram done starting at age 40 and yearly or every other year based on an informed, shared decision-making process between your and your provider.

As a Licensed Midwife, I can provide holistic, well-person care and referrals for mammograms, labs and ultrasounds. Our visits are at least an hour long and discuss any concerns you have about your physical and emotional health.

Midwives are holistic providers, focusing on the whole person. Learn more with Mum's the Word and happy Midwifery Week!

Hello folks! As many of you know, the transfer from Health Net Services to TriWest has been a train wreck for providers as well as for beneficiaries. They should have been prepared for this changeover, but they were not.

On that note, my in-network provider entry is no longer under my name but under my business name instead. (Link is in the Linktr.ee in my bio)

If you are a Tricare beneficiary and want to utilize your doula benefits under the Childbirth and Breastfeeding Support Demonstration, please ask your provider for a GENERAL REFERRAL for doula services (have them attach the waiver of approval letter) OR you can request a doula referral under my business name (Mum's the Word). My NPI and my name are not in the system for some reason, but you can still work with me as long as we have one of these referrals. If you need an example, contact me, and I will email it to you.

I am currently the only Tricare-approved, in-network doula in Monterey County. Others are coming, but it will be a while. I am also a midwife serving our community. Please be patient with me as I navigate the influx of beneficiaries wanting support as well as supporting my clients already on the books.

Always happy to bring my Midwife bags to career fairs! After attending the Los Arboles - - Career Day, I was invited to attend Pajaro Middle School's Career Day. I love sharing what I do.

By the way, students are always fascinated by the birth stool. The reactions I get when sharing what it's used for always cracks me up. I had one brave soul sit on it at the last Career Day. Let's see what happens today!
