Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, also known as PCOS, is a complex chronic condition that can affect up to eight to thirteen percent of adult persons with female reproductive organs.

The postpartum period can be overwhelming, filled with emotional and physical challenges. Doula care and community support play crucial roles in easing this transition. By offering emotional support, practical assistance, and guidance on infant care, we help new parents navigate this demanding and sacred time. 

Nourishing yourself during pregnancy and the postpartum period is one of the most significant ways you can support both your well-being and that of your baby. Whether you’re growing your family through pregnancy, surrogacy, or adoption, focusing on nutrition is key to ensuring you feel your best physically and emotionally during this transformative time.

I’ve sat and held someone’s hand while they’ve cried after being dismissed by healthcare providers and are struggling with wait times to see lactation professionals. I had to do something. I had to do something to prepare people. I had to do something to solve some of these problems before they happened. I had to figure out a way to be proactive.

Doula work is an incredible path of compassion, learning, unlearning, and growth. It is an incredibly fulfilling calling, but it can also feel overwhelming. Doula work in my opinion and in my life goes far beyond the journey of pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. It reaches into the depths of experiences such as abortion, loss, trauma, end-of-life, death and dying and grief, all of life’s big Transitions. For those who feel drawn to doula work—or for experienced doulas seeking to deepen their understanding—a mentor or mentorship program can be transformative. My program isn’t just about gaining knowledge; it’s about cultivating the compassion and skills needed to support individuals and families at every step of life’s journey. Whether you’re a new doula finding your footing, or a seasoned doula ready to deepen your practice, mentorship is a powerful way to grow, connect, and truly thrive.
