Shamanic Midwifery – the teachings and insights of the Late Jeannine Parvati Baker (USA).

Anne Harris

I am Anne — a woman who has lived deeply, held many roles, and walked through change with her eyes open.

I grew up in Arnhem Land and the Northern Territory, and have moved between business, art, motherhood, and navigating relationship within community, family, and work. My work is shaped by real life — by navigating complexity, standing in truth, and learning to hold steady through change.

I am a trained Shamanic Womancraft practitioner and certified Beautiful You life and business coach. I work with women at thresholds — where something is no longer working, and something new is asking to emerge.

When we work together, I hold a clear, grounded space where things can be seen as they are. Rites of passage, cycles, and ancestral patterns are recognised. We slow down, name what matters, and cut through what is no longer true. I bring directness, deep listening, and practical support. You leave with clarity, awareness, and the capacity to trust your own knowing and choose what comes next.

I support women to bring that knowing into all aspects of life — how they live, work, and show up in the world.

This is not about fixing. It is about remembering, choosing, and becoming all of who you already are.

She holds these pivotal moments with warmth, reverence, compassion & care.
