Companion Courtney

I wrote a piece on the blog about what being a full-spectrum means to me. I'm so honored to have my work and words out in the world in this way.

“Here’s what I’ve quickly come to learn and feel in my bones:

Birth work is community work. It is care work. It is advocacy work. It is anti-oppression work. It is disruptor work.

It is witnessing. It is caring for the humanity of all people. It is learning and unlearning. It is beyond the systems. It is trauma-aware. It honors the individual AND the collective. It is a full-body experience. It is q***ring it all up.

Birth work seeks to create a reality that aligns with our highest visions for our Earth and all of the beings we cohabitate with.”
