Meet Julie
You deserve a conscious-altering, self-actualizing, and blissful experience.
If you are becoming a mother for the first time or again, I invite you to explore what this might look like for you and consider:
What can I do to prepare for my greatest personal endeavor?
How do I want to Show Up for Myself at this time of my life?
Who do I want on my Team to help me feel safe, secure, healthy, well-informed, respected, and filled with a deep sense of confidence as I prepare for the work of birthing and stepping into my mothering role ?
The shifts for new, anticipating, and expectant parents invites a creative process of change and growth, new patterns, and potential.
You have a beautiful opportunity to re-arrange old ways to make way for the new: for the first time or again and again. I call this Expanding the Mother Field©: when your body, mind, and spirit open to accommodate this new being (realized or still manifesting) and then gives birth to not only your child’s body and life force but the ongoing and self-renewing process of mothering.
As your reproductive wellness specialist, I will support your through your transformative mothering journey.
I would love to take the time to explore your unique path and vision – together.

Improving Childbirth Experiences and Maternal Health and Wellness.
In my recent interview with brand strategist and business coach Jesse May, I shared an overview on:
Why body balance over body strength allows for a more productive and efficient birth experience.
Why the first 40 days after birth sets the stage for the next 40 years.
A missing link in our modern mothering culture directly impacting maternal wellness.
