Reasons to follow, or unfollow, me 🤪🫠

I’m all for differing opinions, as long as they come with respect, curiosity, and an open mind. In fact, I think we need more conversations with people who don’t see the world exactly the way we do.

These are some of the beliefs life, watching motherhood, birth work, healthcare, heartbreak, and a whole lot of learning (and unlearning) have shaped in me

They may evolve. I hope they do.

I never want to stop being curious enough to change my mind when I learn something new.

So I’m curious and want to know yours. What are some things you have learned that have shaped you over the years?

My family has been coming to this special place for 40+ years now.

A place where I had my first birthday. Learned how to ride a bike without training wheels. Made life-long friendships. Have endless memories of building sand castles, boogie boarding, skim boarding, beach bonfires, watching the stars, playing hide and seek.

And of course, where pops taught and shared with me everything he knows about the ocean. How to free dive. How to fish. How to clean fish. How to read the water. The tides. The winds and swells. How to captain a boat. And together we now share, in my opinion, one of the best hobbies.

Some of the best times here are when it’s just me and my dad in the fish house. Or my mom and I reading books on the beach. Or playing horseshoes with my siblings and the rest of the crew that comes year after year.

I’m learning that it isn’t too common to have family traditions like this, and man, I will be forever grateful to my parents for sharing this with us.

Cheers to another year at ABC and to many, many more.

One of the things I wish more women knew during pregnancy is that more isn’t always the answer.

More water.
More supplements.
More stretching.
More pushing through.

Sometimes what our body is asking for isn’t more.
It’s asking for different.

Pregnancy asks an incredible amount of your body. Your blood volume expands, your tissues remodel, your metabolism changes, your baby grows by the second, and every organ system adapts to support new life.
That’s a remarkable amount of work.

By the end of the day, it’s not surprising that your body might be asking for a little extra care. Maybe that looks like a nourishing dinner instead of another protein bar.
Maybe it’s adding minerals and electrolytes rather than another bottle of plain water. Maybe it’s taking your shoes off and putting your feet in the grass. Maybe it’s slowing your breathing before bed. Or maybe it’s ten quiet minutes where no one needs anything from you.

One of my favorite reminders is that our bodies don’t just need calories, they need information.

The food we eat, the water we drink, the minerals we consume, the way we move, the light we expose ourselves to, the people we surround ourselves with, and the moments we create for rest all become part of the environment our cells experience.

Pregnancy isn’t just about growing a baby.
It’s also about learning how to care for the person growing that baby. You deserve that care, too. 🤍

A little over a year ago, I partially tore my left soleus (a muscle that sits under your gastrocs).

At first, I couldn’t believe it happened. All my years of being an athlete and I was fortunate enough to never truly injure myself and now, I couldn’t walk.

Movement has always been one of the ways I process life. It’s where I release stress, clear my mind, reconnect with myself, and remember what my body is capable of. Weight training. Running. Dancing. Swimming. Those weren’t just hobbies, they were part of my rhythm.

And then, overnight, they were gone.

For months, I could barely walk without pain. I watched my strength change. My endurance change. My confidence change. Recovery wasn’t measured in weeks, it was measured in seasons.

One of the biggest lessons I took away from this wasn’t about the injury itself. It was realizing how important it is to have more than one way to support your nervous system.

Life will inevitably throw you curveballs. There may be seasons when you can’t move your body the way you love. Seasons when you lose a relationship, a job, a routine, or a version of yourself you’ve known for years. If all of your peace lives in one place, what happens when that place is no longer available?

So here’s the wisdom: Build a life with many roots.

Find joy in more than one place.
Find peace in more than one practice.
Find people who help regulate your nervous system.
Learn to enjoy your own company.
Cultivate hobbies that remind you you’re alive.
It’s about becoming someone our past self couldn’t have imagined.

Today I lifted weight I once wondered if I’d ever lift again. I ran after months of barely being able to walk. And somewhere along the way, I realized I wasn’t trying to become the woman I was before the injury. I was becoming someone stronger. Not because I never struggled. But because I learned that resilience isn’t about avoiding life’s hardest seasons.

It’s about allowing them to shape you without letting them define you. Maybe the version of you waiting on the other side of this season isn’t just healed. Maybe they’re wiser. More grounded. More resilient. And maybe a little more badass 😉

This is a conversation I think our birth community needs to be willing to have.

Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of supporting births in hospitals, birth centers, and homes. I’ve witnessed incredible, compassionate care in every setting. I’ve also witnessed moments where women left feeling deeply respected and honored and moments where they left completely dismissed and let down.

This post isn’t about saying one place is better than another. It’s about asking a question:
Why are more women choosing free birth?

I don’t believe the answer is as simple as “they’re anti-medicine.” For many families, I think it’s about something much deeper.

It’s about autonomy.
It’s about informed consent.
It’s about feeling like their questions matter.
It’s about wanting to be treated as an active participant in their birth instead of a passive recipient of care.

Birth is not inherently pathological. Most pregnancies and births are physiological processes. And when complications arise, I am incredibly grateful for skilled obstetricians, nurses, anesthesiologists, midwives, and hospital teams who provide life-saving care every single day.

Those two truths can exist at the same time.

We can celebrate modern medicine and ask how we can create maternity care that feels more relational, more collaborative, and more centered on the woman in front of us. Because when women feel respected, heard, and empowered, everyone benefits.

My hope is that we spend less time debating and criticizing where women give birth and more time asking why so many are searching for something different.

If you’re comfortable sharing, I’d love to hear from you. What made you feel the most supported during your birth experience? What do you wish had been different?

Let’s keep this conversation thoughtful, respectful, and centered on learning from one another. 🤍

I’ve noticed something interesting.

Many people are quick to ask for evidence when chiropractic enters the breastfeeding conversation. And that’s a fair question.

But if we’re going to be evidence-based, we need to look at all of the evidence, not just the pieces that fit our professional or personal bias.

👉🏼 An IBCLC co-authored a paper discussing collaboration between lactation consultants and chiropractors.

👉🏼 One of the most widely used educational resources in lactation discusses referral to chiropractors when musculoskeletal dysfunction may be affecting feeding.

👉🏼 A published case series followed 114 infants experiencing breastfeeding difficulties and reported improvements following chiropractic care.

And beyond the literature?

Many of us working in pediatric chiropractic receive referrals from IBCLCs consistently.

As an IBCLC myself and a pediatric chiropractor, I don’t believe breastfeeding challenges belong to one profession.

I believe they belong to the baby. And babies deserve providers who are willing to collaborate, stay curious, and recognize when another set of hands may help.

The best providers I’ve worked with from IBCLCs, OTs, SLPs, PTs, dentists, midwives, to physicians, and other chiropractors aren’t asking:
“Who owns this problem?”

They’re asking:
“What does this family need?”

And they definitely are not telling families that they can do it better than another profession 🚩(lookout for those ones and 🏃🏼‍♀️💨 away)
