I am local to Far North Queensland and grew up on a farm near Tully. Cairns area has been my home for 22 years.
My greatest achievements ever have been home birthing and raising 3 awesome daughters, and blending a family with my amazing partner and his children. As I have mothered my children I have studied Art, Dance, Clothing design and manufacture, Women’s Health, Yoga teacher training, Doula studies and so much more over the last umpteen years.
In 2018 I graduated from the School of Shamanic Womancraft – a journey that changed my life forever. I was deeply supported during this time to step into my gifts and share them with the world.
My work and passion as a Birth Keeper and Doula see me supporting Mothers and Families emotionally, physically and lovingly through the major life-changing events of Pregnancy, Birth and Beyond.
I view life as a constant opportunity to rebirth new aspects of ourselves. This explains my passion for supporting and guiding people through these major changes and rites of passage.
My passion for facilitating events and retreats for women comes from a deep knowing that when women feel free to be themselves, they feel empowered, connected in life and to nature and their creativity. Women in their power bring a profound and positive healing effect to other people and to our planet.
