At 22, I found myself living in a cabin on the side of a mountain surrounded by nothing but nature and a goat named Elvis.  No running water, no electricity, and no indoor shower; it was on that mountain that I fell in love the natural world.  It was during those years that I learned about the ancient art of traditional midwifery married with herbalism. 

I spent my 20's moving from place to place, learning from different midwives, herbalists, plant protectors, and nature enthusiasts. (read more about my education and experiences here)

When I gave birth to my first child in 2018, I chose to buckle down and raise her with intention. Something deep in my bones shifted. I realized the depth of responsibility that comes with the title, "mama bear". When I turned from maiden to mother, a part of my soul awakened; no longer innocent, I knew I needed to get serious in not only learning but doing.
