| Birth Support
•
I’m opening up two spaces for birth support in June.
•
If you’re pregnant and looking for steady, grounded support through your journey into birth and beyond, I can give you that.
•
This work is about feeling held, informed, and deeply supported as you step into your next season.
•
If this feels like something you’re needing, send me a DM and we can chat ✨
•
I cover:
✅ Wexford
✅ Wicklow
✅ Kilkenny
✅ Carlow
✅ Waterford
✅ South Dublin
✅ East Tipperary
✅ Some parts of Kildare

| For a long time...
•
I’ve wanted to create a space where birth is spoken about gently.
•
Not clinically.
Not urgently.
Just honestly.
•
This Friday, Held Through Birth begins on Community Radio Kilkenny City.
•
Episode 1 is called The Invisible Early Weeks.
•
The part of pregnancy that so many people carry quietly.
•
I’m really proud of this one. 💫

| I’m opening 5 private Birth Debrief & Emotional Reset sessions over the next 2 weeks.
•
For women who:
• Left their birth feeling confused, dismissed or shaken
• Were told things that didn’t sit right
• Never got to properly process what happened

This is not therapy.
•
It’s structured, supported debriefing with someone who understands the maternity system and the emotional weight that can linger long after discharge.
•
You will leave with:
• Clarity
• Validation
• A written summary of your story
• A steadier nervous system
• Tools to move forward

90 minutes.

Message me and I’ll send you more details. 💞

Grabbing those reigns and riding powerfully into 2026. 💫
•
More will be revealed very soon. 🤗

Some magical things are happening at Globebaby Doula. 💫

And, of course, I'm wearing one of my all-time favourite tees from

| My first baby
•
I didn’t know it at the time.
I thought this was just how it was.
That pregnancy meant fear.
That birth meant surrendering control.
That breastfeeding meant blame, if it didn’t work.
•
No one pulled me aside and said...

“You’re allowed to ask questions.”
“You’re allowed to move your body.”
“You’re allowed to understand what’s happening.”
“You’re allowed to feel safe.”
•
So I internalised it.
•
The urgency.
The pressure.
The subtle shame. The not so subtle shame.
•
But the part that really breaks my heart … I see women still being spoken to like this. Every week. Every single day!!
•
Smart, capable, intuitive women who walk into appointments with confidence and walk out doubting themselves. More and more with each appointment.
•
If you’ve ever left a scan, an induction discussion, a feeding appointment etc, with your stomach in knots telling yourself,

“They must know better…”

I see you.
•
Support isn’t about candles and hypnobirthing scripts.
•
Support is about someone steady beside you saying...

“Pause. Let’s unpack that.”
“Here’s what that actually means.”
“You have options.”
“This is not your fault.”
•
You deserved that! This time. The first time. Every time. Always!!
•
If this post feels uncomfortably familiar… you’re exactly who I work with now. 💞

| First baby?
•
Everyone keeps telling you,
“You’ll be fine.”
•
Based on what?
Vibes?
•
Birth is physiological.
It’s also unpredictable.
Both can be true at the same time.
•
If this is your first baby, you don’t need affirmations printed in pastel fonts.
•
You need to understand:
✅ What contractions are actually doing
✅ Why inductions change the rhythm
✅ What your options are if labour stalls
✅ How to give or withhold consent in real time
✅ What support actually looks like under pressure
•
Confidence doesn’t come from hoping it goes to plan. It comes from knowing what’s happening when it doesn’t.
•
My prenatal workshops are evidence-based, trauma-informed, and built for women who want comprehension over comfort.
•
We prepare for the whole room.
Not just the highlight reel.
•
There’s also a postpartum follow-up call, because debriefing matters.
•
If you’re having your first baby and you want preparation that matches your intelligence,
DM me “FIRST.” 💞

| Questions? Answers 👇🏻
•
I’ve had a few questions about Rooted in Heart, so I wanted to share a little more here.
•
It’s a 6-week circle for doulas and birth workers who’ve been feeling the heaviness of this work ~ the restrictions, the burnout, the holding, the heartbreak.
•
It’s a space to reconnect with your purpose, to feel supported, and to remember that you don’t have to carry it all alone.
•
There’s a special 11.11 offer open until Tuesday, November 18th, with flexible payment options to make joining easier.
And just a little note ~ there are only a few places left, as we’re keeping the group small and intimate so it feels deeply personal and connected.
