I am so grateful to be able to midwife this event and witness the transformation of participants as they journey through the processes.

It gave me tools through which to explore my own womanhood, my stories, judgements and patterns. It reassured me that birth is sacred and that there are so many strong women working to hold this vision and intention for women to be able to birth how, when and where they choose without judgement or restriction. I felt profoundly held in a circle of women, in safety and love, which is how I want women to feel when they are in my care.” (Full review available here: https://search.informit.com.au/documentSummary;dn=251383120060963;res=IELHEA)2017 @homebirth_australia Conference Dinner with my Teacher @janehardwickecollings 😊 Looking forward to the 2020 version 😆
