This is 40.
The feeling of becoming more yourself. Of caring less about the noise around you and more about what feels right for you. I have a loving husband, kids who are growing more independent, and I'm probably the healthiest I've ever been. I'm content. Happy. Finding myself again in a way I didn't expect. What's surprised me most is how much I've changed. The woman I am today isn't the same woman I was 10 years ago or even a year ago. It feels like I've lived so many different lives already.
Part of that evolution has been stepping back from supporting births after more than a decade in the birth space. It wasn't an easy decision. Being a doula became such a huge part of my identity, and I will always be grateful for the privilege of being invited into so many births. To witness, support and hold space for thousands of women and families has shaped me in ways I can't put into words.
But this year I realised that growth sometimes means letting go of what once defined you. I've stepped into a new role that brings more stability and structure, and to my surprise, I absolutely love it.
What hasn't changed is my love for women, birth, and the magic of this work. I'm still very much a placenta nerd 🤍 Placenta encapsulation remains a huge passion of mine, and I'm honoured to continue supporting families in that way.
For now, I'm embracing the unknown. Maybe this is a pause, maybe it's a new direction. Either way, I'm learning to trust it.
And honestly, that feels like true sovereigntyto keep evolving, to not have all the answers, and to simply be yourself.
Thank you for being here and for continuing to support my little business. It means more than you know.
