We are moving into a Thriving Business Series on the podcast. I love a good theme and the next few interviews are going to be just that! Many of us find that after our training we are released into this business world feeling ill-equipped and overwhelmed. Wait, not only do I need to know how to serve my clients as a birth worker, but now I need to be an expert in marketing, finances, taxes, social media, web development and more. It’s enough to make someone throw in the towel from...

Hello! Welcome to Episode 17 and I’m thrilled to share with you today’s conversation! I had the opportunity to talk with Katy Bowman of Nutritious Movement. If you haven’t heard of her, you’re in for a treat!

I originally found Katy’s work about 8-9 years ago. I found her through one of her blog posts about squatting. The way she approached movement in a big picture way really resonated with me. But I didn’t think a lot of it, it was back when...

Hello Friends! Today I’m excited to discuss part two of how movement can be used as a tool for healing and emotional stability when it comes to stress and trauma. If you haven’t had a chance to listen to part 1, I recommend you pause this episode, listen to the last one, and then resume, it lays a solid foundation what I’m going to be sharing today.

What's in your trauma and stress tool box? I would love for people to have all the options available to them to access, in no...

Today I’m super excited because I get to talk to you about one of the things I love most in the whole world, movement for stress reduction! That’s right! Most of the time when we talk about exercise, most people associate it with a list of ‘shoulds’, something on their list they’re not doing and feel like they should be, something they’re not doing enough of or any of, something that doesn’t fit into their lives and because of that they are somehow...

I had the privilege of chatting with midwife Mirra Nerenberg from Portland, Oregon.

I loved this conversation as we got honest and real about midwifery, motherhood and the on call life, the importance of community and empowered birth! Stories shape, educate and empower us, and Mirra’s is no different!

Mirra Nerenberg started attending births as a labor doula in 2006 while she started her formal midwifery education at Birthingway College of Midwifery. During midwifery school,...

In this weeks episode I get the privilege of interviewing Jane Clapp. Jane is a mindful strength and movement coach, a trauma informed embodied resilience expert and a Jungian Analyst in training.

Her bio states: 

“You would probably agree with me that we're all healing from some past hurt or loss. That doesn’t mean we're broken. In fact, our past struggles, traumas or health issues don’t have to be a life sentence. I believe we have the power, with enough support...

In today's episode I get to interview the amazing Lisa Hendrickson-Jack about a subject that’s discussed less often and highly misunderstood  and is a a highly charged subject for women’s reproductive health. We discuss using fertility awareness for either preventing pregnancy or using it to get pregnant! There are SO many different misunderstandings and so much empowering science to back up this strategy, I don’t want to give too much away, but I love diving into the...

My journey towards healing and moving from surviving to thriving actually started in my mind. Perceived authorities and assumptions can strongly affect our beliefs and our views of reality. Over time we can become confined and limited by our unquestioned and subtle beliefs. It’s so important that we take the time to slow down to analyze and question them by looking at the “story I tell myself” about various parts of life. Join me as a share insights and anecdotes from my...

Today's interview was fascinating! I got to chat with Brandy Cummings a Functional Medicine Nutritionist! We dove into the nitty gritty of how food can be a tool during the prenatal and postnatal season, without dogma or hype! 

Brandy Cummings is a Certified Nutrition Consultant. After years of battling her own health struggles and infertility, she eventually unlocked her happy place to finally THRIVE and welcome a beautiful healthy baby girl into the world. Regaining her health...

Friends! I'm SO thrilled to present my dear friend Jen Gleeson Blue to you today! She's had a huge impact on my own healing journey and provided so much support for me personally! This conversation really felt like I just got to sit down with someone I respect and soak in all her warmth and kindness and wisdom and I'm so thrilled you get to listen in! 

A bit about Jen:
