As a mama of two, I truly understand the significance of birth and the postpartum period in a mother’s journey. I’ve experienced firsthand the highs and lows—how deeply fulfilling it can be, but also how disappointing, even traumatic, it is when things don’t go as planned. My first-born was delivered via C-section because he was breech. If i knew then what I know now I would have done things differently but at the time I was made to feel that surgery was my only option to safely get my son into my arms. I tried every technique I could find to help him turn, but he remained breech, so I reluctantly consented to surgery. The moment I was moved into the postpartum room, I had a feeling in the pit of my stomach that this wouldn’t be the story of my next birth.

That determination led me to dive headfirst into research about VBAC (vaginal birth after cesarean). By the time I discovered I was pregnant with our second child, I had my provider and doula lined up, along with a wealth of knowledge that made all the difference. That preparation and faith carried me through, and I was able to have our daughter completely unmedicated. It was such an empowering experience, one that reminded me of the beauty of birth as God intended it to be—a natural, fulfilling process when we trust the design He gave us and avoid letting the medical system dictate our care.

I know that every birth story is unique, and I want to help you feel empowered, educated, and confident as you prepare for your own experience—without the trauma that so often accompanies a first birth. I’m here to show you how beautiful birth can be when we get back to the basics and trust in the process that God outlined for us. Birth is a sacred moment, and it’s one that God designed to be a beautiful journey of strength and trust. Let’s walk this path together—one full of faith, preparation, and joy—so you can own your birth story and embrace the experience with peace and confidence. I promise, it will be worth every step!
