Dear Reader, I hope that your holiday season has been peaceful, restful and reflective. Well, I mean, if you have kids I hope that you found lots of joy and a few moments here and there that were quiet and calm. December felt a little bit like floating in a fantasy. Like we're still coasting even though we know that a crash is just around the next bend. I'm constantly reminding myself, RIGHT NOW, I'm ok. Today I have what I need. And I know that in the future I'm going to need [insert need], so I am preparing for that now by [insert solution]. I can tell you that we are all going to need each other. We're going to need community and we are going to need to find ways to be together with people who might challenge us or make us uncomfortable. I want to invite you to a free circle that I'm hosting at my home to help address this need: Skills and Practices for the New Era of Motherhood
If you have attended MotherCircle in the past, I would LOVE for you to join this free class (no pressure to commit to MotherCircle again)! If you feel nervous about coming by yourself - bring a mom friend with you! I can't wait to see you! Blessings, PS: If you know you want to commit to MotherCircle, we start January 24. Register online today! Just so that you know all the ways I can support youLove what I offer? Please leave me a business review on Google or Yelp.

This weekend I went back to the beginning (a spring theme 🌱) of my Sacred Rhythms' work: I went to a doula training! You see, the birth of my first child, like the birth of every child, was an initiation. Not only into my journey as mother but into the sacred power of birth itself. And...
Dear friends, I want to invite you (or your pregnant friends) to our Embodied Birth Skills childbirth education course. You may have heard me talk about this as an evergreen online course - which it is. AND occasionally, when there is enough interest, I offer this course in person! And there has been interest lately. In person can really be amazing! You get the community aspect in addition to the course material, and there is no way that I can replicate community with an online class. Of...
Dear Reader, Do you trust your body? Do you know how to "listen to your body?" Have you ever felt betrayed by your body? I think a lot of women feel confusion about their bodies, what their bodies are "saying" or are fearful about something in their bodies. I think many of us feel like we wish our bodies could do more. Like, the brain says, "you should be able to just get up and do that thing..." or "just keep going, it will be fine!" and then later it is NOT fine! You're exhausted. And...
