I started my journey to motherhood as a teen mom, and like most first time moms, I was naive, dis-empowered, and didn't know how to trust my body. This resulted in my first two births starting with pitocin induction and receiving epidurals towards the end of labor (literally after the epidural both times I was holding my baby in my arms within the hour). It wasn't until my third pregnancy where things began to change, for the better of my children and myself! This 2013 pregnancy was a catalyst for so many things including: the truth of vaccines, circumcision, and physiological birth (aka your God given ability as a woman to CREATE & BIRTH LIFE). I began to recall my power, to remember I am the authority of my body, and little by little regained my voice and strength to stand up in what I believed was best for me and this baby. While it's different for each mom, for me at this time it meant: limiting ultrasound use and risky run of the mill tests and procedures, even with push back from my OB. It meant that when the nurses yelled at me not to touch my crowning baby (like they did in my first two births too. a story for another time) I did it anyway. It meant not giving into the pressure to give my child the vitamin k shot after birth, even when the on call pediatrician said they wouldn't release us until I obliged. It meant keeping my newborn at all times, no matter what, even if it was an “inconvenience” to the staff. It meant refusing to mutilate my son by circumcision even when family members told us how gross, unclean, and unsafe of a choice it was. It meant nursing my baby anywhere any time and being present with them even if I was tired.

Overall it meant so many things, but with a common theme of: I was no longer creating, birthing, or raising LIFE for anyone outside of me and God. I wasn’t allowing myself to be under the false authority of anyone, because no one knows me or my body better than me. And the same goes for you mama! The journey to uncovering the powerful woman you are is so rewarding and you don't have to walk it alone.

That pregnancy brought so much change to where I decided I didn't ever want to have to “fight” for the right to do what I know is best for my baby. I didn't want to endure any more birth trauma, threats, or scare tactics during the most radical transitions in my life at the hands of those sworn to do no harm. And that lead me to the home births of my next 3 babies. Which came with its own challenges too, thankfully, that helped strengthen and fortify me. New fears came up for myself (like, can I really have another healthy baby? Am I that lucky? as if birth is up to luck, ha!) SO. MANY. OPINIONS. of others fled out of mouths when they found out I was having my baby at home, I became a master at my birth mindset to where nothing anyone said was ever going to cause me to doubt myself. My belief in myself, my body, and my baby to birth became rock solid.

I continued in educating myself in all things pregnancy and birth. I then became a Doula and Certified Health Coach, at the same time in 2019, to help myself and my family and to be better serve my clients. Everything I learned becoming a health coach at HMI Wellness is based off the last 50+ years of nutrition science and drastically elevated my 6th pregnancy. My energy sky rocketed in pregnancy and postpartum, I felt SO GOOD throughout my whole pregnancy - working out daily up until birth! (something that felt impossible before because I was always so tired), had another wonderful home birth surrounded by my husband and children, and a peaceful blissful postpartum.

Now, it’s 2025, I’ve just finished my schooling as a Quantum Mind Body Therapist and able to provide my clients with even more tailored in depth support with neuroscience, bioenergetics, and quantum physics practices.

Since becoming a mom 16 years ago, SO much has changed in my life as I’ve learned who I really am at the core and have uncovered my passion and commitment to supporting moms in this miraculous time in their life. It’s so beyond just educating moms on different birth choices they have because while you do have many many choices to make throughout pregnancy, birth, and postpartum the magic is the internal transformation that takes place. It’s your daily thoughts in pregnancy and beyond, its your daily actions, how you nourish your mind body and soul. It’s identifying and releasing the internal conflicts that have kept you from living and birthing as you truly desire in your heart. That's what I am so passionate about, seeing the moms I work with REMEMBER their own power and act on it, seeing them believe in themselves and their body again, hearing how “I didn't know I could feel this good” or “this postpartum is so much different, I have so much more peace now” or “I really feel confident to do this”. The external choices do matter and DO need to be made, but if you make them without ever uncovering your heart and motherly knowing you’ll never feel the full magnitude of how magnificently you are designed.
