One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was a volunteer for a small public hospital as a doula and a mother I just met and helped during her labour let me cut the baby's cord and named the little one after me!
I've seen many births before and after that magical one. But that was a bless, honour, pride and many more things for me.

Teach, Learn, Share

I really like to meet other doulas around the world to share stories, experiences.
Also eco-farming, herbal wisdom and forest love experiences are much appreciated :)

I'm working and writing about women's cycles, spirituality etc. Also interested in sacred rituals, dances and explorations. I know there are lots of stories to be heard out there.

I'm sharing my experiences, stories and wisdom I learned until today about childbirth, natural cycles etc. If you have issues or need support on these topics, feel free to ask.

Other than that, I love to have conversations about personal journeys...
