I gave birth to two babies, 2 placentas in two different countries.
One barely old enough to be in college, the other over 40. Attended by midwives and both at home, 20 years apart. I spoke two languages and held an untold number of prayers in my heart. One country they came prepared with hospital protocol. In the other, they trusted my voice entirely, my choice as sacred. I had a doula, that matched my pitch and held my hair.
It is my wish to help other mothers navigate motherhood with grace, peace and power. We are here to change the conversation, decenter the patriarchy, remove them from our wombs and the way we birth and parent our children.
The Mother Meridian
is named for the invisible energetic lines that carry life.
In Chinese medicine, meridians are pathways of energy, communication, and vitality in the body. The Ren Channel, often called the Sea of Yin, runs through the womb, abdomen, chest, and heart. It governs conception, pregnancy, birth, and postpartum recovery. It is quite literally a mother’s central line.
Modern systems controlling the birth process disrupt this energy pathway as c-sections literally sever this line.
Many women giving birth today are separated from their bodies, their instincts, and their babies through systems that prioritize control, efficiency, and intervention (and profit) over trust and continuity. When birth is interrupted unnecessarily, when mothers are cut open, rushed, overridden, silenced, and gaslighted, the effects don’t stop at the intervention. They don’t stop at the incision and they don’t stop after leaving the hospital. Bonding is disrupted. Healing is delayed.
Stress patterns imprint early in the baby’s brain and body. Mothers are abandoned by this system at the very moment they need the most support, reverence, and rest.
The Mother Meridian exists to name and repair that rupture.
Mother Meridian is a bridge to the innate medicine woman within each mother, to the protector, the healer, the life-giver. Through breath and quite literally, the vagus nerve we reconnect and weave our truths and stories of becoming women, mothers and knowers.
Mother Meridian speaks to restoring trust in the maternal body, honoring the energetic and spiritual dimensions of pregnancy and childbirth, and supports mothers in reclaiming their voice -especially when we are seen as being most vulnerable and treated most horribly. There in lies our secret superpower.
This work is not about rejecting medicine rather it is about reclaiming our power from it, integrating choice with our intuition, remembering our metaphysical wisdom and divine sovereignty.
The Mother Meridian is that sacred line that draws us back; to center, to truth to ourselves. SoulPath Collective is the way we walk together, supporting each other in moving through and rising up.
