The Holistic Pregnancy: Empowered Birth Course

Finally take the time you deserve to turn inward and prepare for the biggest experience of your life: The upcoming birth of your new child. journey into your own healing at your own pace and give to your self a gift that the medical model will never offer you, a deeper and more meaningful experience of pregnancy. As you devote time to reconnecting to yourself, you will learn tools to release fear so that you can gain empowerment through your birthing experience and feel ready to meet your baby.

Modern Pregnancy Care over focuses on symptoms and emphasizes looking to the physical body to monitor your health and the health of your growing baby. This is helpful for assessing risk but does not put women in a good head space as they prepare for their birth. Its not uncommon to come out of a medical pregnancy appointment and feel more anxious and apprehensive about your upcoming birth than before your visit.

Meanwhile, your doctor or health care professional asks very little about how you are feeling emotionally, how you were parented as a child, or what your dreams are for this birth and the new life you are growing inside of you. You may be wondering when you will be given time and space to process the changes that are taking place within you or even feel frustrated that the care you are receiving is not helping you to feel more prepared for birth along with the the lifelong journey of parenting beyond.

It's no surprise you feel nervous and underprepared for birth as our modern culture does very little to support the experience of pregnant women as they shift roles from maiden to mother or mother of 1 to mother of multiple children.

I have also heard the stories of too many women who felt regret and remorse for the way their birth played out. Women describe wishing they felt more educated or prepared to make the decisions that were asked of them during their birthing experience which then impacted the way they felt as new parents.

As a certified professional Midwife for 10 years, I have supported countless women who felt frustrated and even traumatized by their pregnancy and birth experiences. The most common sentiment women report in pregnancy is fear and anxiety about the unknown. You are not alone in how you feel. As a midwife who support women through this time, I want to validate the frustrations you are feeling and let you know you deserve more support.

Reclaim your pregnancy and birth experience as a Sacred Rites of passage by HONORING your personal journey and taking the time to go deeper into preparing your soul for for birth and parenting.
Give to yourself a gift that no one else will offer to you during your pregnancy experience, a chance to focus on your own personal healing as you approach this major life event so that you have an easier experience integrating your birth.
Receive a complete new set of mental, emotional and spiritual tools that will help you to release fear and embrace the unknown as it arises through your labor and birth experience.

First Time Mother

“When Someone asks me for recommendations for things that really helped me in my pregnancy and birth, the first thing I mention is the Holistic Pregnancy Course. I cant even begin to articulate all the ways this course assisted me in my pregnancy, birth and postpartum experience. Perhaps the most important is that I was able to have the homebirth I dreamed of because of the Course. When my water broke early and I was faced with a deadline of when to be in active labor, I had a choice to move through fear and doubt using the tools I used in the course. I have no doubt that, without the course and Rachael’s support, I would have had a different birth experience -Melissa

You will feel connected to yourself and able to hold and support yourself through your labor and birth
You will feel less fear and anxiety towards the unknown's of birth as you come to embrace your unique unfolding and learn to trust your story
you will feel proactive as you move through pregnancy knowing that you are best utilizing this time of pregnancy to fully prepare for birth and motherhood
you will feel grounded and centered as you approach this sacred rites of passage experience having fully invested in yourself and your personal wellbeing through this healing journey. Your child will feel welcomed and loved by you as you come to more deeply embody self love through this work.

One of the biggest challenges during my pregnancy was the fear of birth and the safety of my child. The fear at times felt overwhelming and although I wanted a home birth experience I was worried that my own anxieties about my daughter's safety would create a block during my labor. I used the tools from the course daily at the end of pregnancy to help work through that fear, confronting the thoughts and focusing on redirecting my energy to the experience I wanted to have. Learning to sit with the fear instead of ignoring it and letting it fester prior to my labor helped me face the challenges that inevitably reappeared during my delivery. Throughout my daughter’s birth I revisited the positive affirmations I had formed through art and my journaling and was able to surrender and allow myself to find peace with the birthing process."

Moving through the Holistic Pregnancy: Empowered Birth Course became a deeply powerful tool for coming to terms with my previous birth and preparing the way for my new child. I believe that I was able to stand by myself in the birthing process (and since), find my voice, and deal with pain differently because of this work. When my labor became intense I was able to use air and sound to shift the pain. When I needed support I was able to connect with (for me) water to relax and have a break. Finding places where I was stuck, raw, or powerful and acknowledging those states, gave me resources to call on. When I was tired and in pain I was able to ask for help, and I was able to be with myself the whole time."

I am so passionate about women, birth, and healing families that I created this course out of a need I saw arising in the care i was providing as a midwife. I saw women wanting more from this powerful experience and I myself, having been walking the path of healing, knew I could share the tools that were helping me to live a better life with my clients. It has been my honor to share this work with all my in person clients who birth in my care as well as to open up this work to women all over the world. I love watching women awaken to their true power and fall in love with themselves as it heals their children, partners and ultimately will heal our communities. I hope this course work can continue to contribute to creating a more healed world for the future generations to inhabit, they deserve a better world than we have inherited and I know this work starts with the Self and ripples out. I have seen first hand how this work brings healing to couples and how when couples are standing in love, everyone around them feels the power of that love. I pray that you can experience that love for yourself, your life, and your births. I would be honored to walk besides you in this journey and share what has helped me along the way.

The Holistic Pregnancy Course will reconnect you to yourself, it will create the space needed to heal and come to terms with how you were parented so that you can learn to reparent yourself and gain the necessary tools needed to be a fully resourced and mature loving parent to your child.

Second time mother

“"I knew with my second baby on the way, that I needed to do some deep work within myself before welcoming this child earth side. I wanted to be mentally and spiritually prepared this time. The Holistic pregnancy: Empowered Birth Course was exactly what I was looking for. Each module left me with powerful tools for labor, birth, and really everyday life. I was opened up to a new awareness of self that I wasn’t tuned into before. This awareness and presence for myself was the biggest gift during labor. With each intense surge, I stayed present in my body. Feeling it all, cheering myself on, loving myself through the birth portal. As I pulled my son to my chest, I could feel the traumas from my ancestors’ births shatter. I felt so powerful, so proud. I felt truly held by each element I had worked with in this course and I am forever grateful to Rachael for facilitating such magic and healing to take place."
