A propos du livre

Biographie de l'auteur

I know biographies are supposed to be written in the third person, but that just doesn't f*cking work for me. This is me, writing about me. No reason to pretend otherwise. I got caught in the hamster wheel of modern, conventional life for a few years, doing things I thought I was "supposed" to be doing. I found a nice guy, got married, bought a little condo and started a cushy 9-5 office job. That lasted a few years until BAM! I had a very powerful dream that prompted me to google "birth" and everything related to it. I knew nothing about birth and had absolutely no interest in the topic, to the extreme of not even wanting children. The whole thing seemed like a horrid, bloody pain fest that I wanted nothing to do with (thanks T.V, movies and media in general!) Shortly after the dream, I dove into birth work professionally working as a doula, childbirth educator and placenta crafter. I put in notice at my corporate job and all elements of my mainstream life continued to crumble. If I was this duped about birth - what else didn't I know? As it turns out - most things. So far I've discovered holistic living in general, alternatives to chemicals on/in my body/home, eating locally and organically, and seeing my body as a whole being - mental, physical, spiritual, emotional - for the first time. All of that led to divorce, a solo summer in Europe, and falling in love with my best friend of many years. I became so inspired by traveling and started yearning for a more mobile lifestyle. My birth work morphed from attending births and teaching locally to writing e-books, blogging, and creating a traveling placenta art show. In 2015 I created www.PostpartumConfession.com - a safe, non-judgmental space for women to share their postpartum stories. When I'm not knee deep in placentas, I enjoy throwing the frisbee, cooking, hosting couch surfers, talking about foreskin restoration, cuddling & doing naked yoga. I travel whenever I get the chance, with a particular love for European adventures. I am a native of Phoenix, AZ, aside from living in New York City for the year in 2005, and several months-long stints of travel. Connect with me @ facebook.com/diyplacenta
