Epigenetics is the branch of genetics that studies the different mechanisms that influence gene expression without direct modification of the DNA sequence. An ever-increasing amount of evidence suggests that such regulatory processes may play a pivotal role both in the initiation of pregnancy and in...

When you know better, you do better. I have typically avoided ChatGPT and other AI because of the ethical concerns I knew about regarding the unauthorized use of intellectual and creative property, however I got caught up in the AI caricature wave and thought what’s the harm in doing it just once?

Well, after seeing several posts today I found out what was wrong with it - specifically that it harms Black communities through pollution exposure, widening the wealth gap between Black households and their white counterparts, and eating up land in rural Black communities.

I can’t undo what I did, but I can help spread the message and take down my AI caricature. There are many articles out there outlining the harm AI does for those who wish to become informed. I added a link to one that was published last year focusing on AI’s impact on Black families in South Carolina.

The collective costs of artificial intelligence and data centers are disproportionately harming Black households.

Hello & Welcome

My name is Meagan, and I am doula who provides birth and postpartum services to mothers and their families in southeastern Virginia. I am also a stay at home mother, sole owner of Beltane Birth Services LLC, and a proud military spouse who understands the unique challenges and hardships that military families can be faced with when having a new baby.

I began my journey as a doula in 2012 after the birth of my first child. Having struggled through years of infertility, my husband and I were thrilled to finally be in the delivery room and were filled with the excitement and anticipation at the prospect of meeting our baby. Unfortunately, despite my best efforts to educate myself as much as possible for my labor and delivery, this first birth was not the joyful experience I had played out in my head over, and over during the many years we fought to get pregnant. Our child's birthday ended with her being rushed to the local Children's Hospital NICU where she remained on a high frequency ventilator for three weeks while I was left with substantial birth injuries to recover from.

After our daughter was returned home healthy, I began dealing with my emotional and physical trauma. I took it upon myself to research and study everything I could about fertility, pregnancy and the labor and delivery process. This path of healing and discovery has led me to find my true calling as a member of the birth community.

I am now the mother of three beautiful children, two of which were born in the presence of an amazing doula, and in August of 2017 I began the process of becoming a certified Birth Doula through DONA International and earned my certification through them in April 2019. In October of 2018 I started cross-training with the Madriella Doula Network and earned my Birth Doula Certification through them in November, 2018. I am currently certified through the Madriella Doula Network as a Professional Doula as well as a certified Madriella Childbirth Educator. I feel truly blessed and honored to be on this path. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your story.
