Nourish•Rejuvenate•Thrive Abdominal Massage, Womb Care, Ayurvedic Postpartum Doula, retreats Congratulations on your pregnancy!

I am honored to share a bit about myself with you. My name is Lynsey and I am a professional birth and postpartum doula. My first exposure to a doula was at the age of fourteen. My aunt in California had studied to become a doula in the 90’s and offered me her study guides. Ten years later, I was able to have a doula at the birth of my first baby. My doulas were my vital support during my long challenging labors. I don’t know what I would’ve done without them. They empowered me, supported me, honored my choices and cheered me on. They were my rocks to lean on during the intense parts of labor and offered loving continuous support even after the birth. After experiencing the benefits of having a doula, I decided to finally pursue becoming a doula myself! I am a DONA trained doula, and have been deeply connected with the Madison birth community for almost a decade, and working with mothers to be, infants and children for almost 20 years! As a mother of three and a licensed Massage Therapist I feel I bring a dynamic energy of knowledge, experience and passion to my work. I approach the process of birth with compassion, gentleness and a strong desire to support your family in creating a safe and loving birth space that feels special to you. Wether you are planning a birth in the hospital or at home, a cesarean, VBAC or unmedicated, you can have an empowering birth. Understanding your choices, your preferences and your needs is integral to having an empowering birth experience. As your Doula, I am here to support you and help you advocate for your needs to be met during your labor, birth and postpartum. From our first prenatal visit until after you are settled in with your new baby, I will provide valuable resources, information and support while you navigate through the experience of birth and the new family dynamic. I offer birth & postpartum doula services, prenatal & postpartum massage, infant massage education, as well as herbal education and support. If you are a first time mom, or this is your fourth child each birthing experience is unique, and each time a mother deserves the support she needs. I look forward to sharing my passion for birth and motherhood with you!

✨ IT’S OFFICIAL. ✨
THE FALL WILD GRACE RETREAT IS HERE. 🤎

WILD GRACE | RESTORATIVE WOMEN’S DAY RETREAT | Nov 8 11am-5pm | WORLD CENTER EQUESTRIAN & Organic Farm RIO, WI

This retreat was created for women who spend so much of their lives leading, facilitating, creating, caring, and holding space for others.

A day to tend to your nervous system, restore your capacity, reconnect with your wholeness, and experience what it feels like to be deeply supported and nourished.

To reconnect with your body and breath.

To spend time on the land and in relationship with ourselves, each other, and the horses.

To be deeply nourished.

To notice what restores you, what depletes you, and what you’re ready to let go of.

You’ll leave with greater clarity around what you need to feel resourced, embodied practices you can return to in everyday life, and a deeper connection to yourself, others, and the way you want to live and lead.

And you’ll explore real, tangible ways to restore your capacity and nourish your life beyond the work, so you can create a more sustainable way of living and leading without sacrificing your wholeness in the process.

✨ THROUGHOUT OUR DAY WE’LL EXPERIENCE:

🍵 Tea meditation + guided reflection

🌿 Somatic equine breathwork with Lynsey Genevieve of wildgraceretreat + Matriterra tending the hearth of Womb, Relationship & Community

🐴 Equine leadership + team building with Rachel Holscher, Equine Specialist + Natural Horsemanship Trainer

🥕 A nourishing seasonal Ayurvedic lunch + refreshments lovingly prepared by our private Ayurvedic chef, Stephanie Rose Sacred Rose Ayurveda

🎨 Community mandala + equine art

📸 Professional photography + your own personal headshot with the incredibly talented Andrea Alvarez of Sweet Near East Photography Andrea | Madison WI Photographer

And perhaps most importantly, the opportunity to be in meaningful connection with an intimate circle of women who understand what it means to care, create, hold, and lead.

This isn’t about escaping your life for a day and then returning to the same patterns of depletion.

It’s about experiencing what it feels like to be supported, nourished, connected, and resourced, and leaving with something tangible to carry into the life and work waiting for you beyond the retreat.

Because the work you do matters.

And so does the woman behind the work. YOU. 🤎

Wild Grace Retreats
An experiential retreat offering by Lynsey Genevieve of MatriTerra

✨ KINFOLK LOCAL SPOTLIGHT ✨

This week’s Local Spotlight is extra special because I’m sharing the beautiful place that will be home to our upcoming Wild Grace Retreat. 💗

I’ve also found a home away from home here...for me, my family, and my dear equine partner, my horse DreamWeaver as I continue deepening my journey into the healing work of equine-assisted learning through breathwork, somatic practices, relationship-based horsemanship, and more.

Just outside Madison in Rio, Wisconsin, World Center Equestrian is an equestrian facility and organic farm surrounded by horses, open land, gardens, and that unmistakable feeling of getting out of the city and back into the natural world.

They offer horse boarding, training, and riding lessons and have created a beautiful community centered around horses, natural horsemanship, and a holistic approach to health and wellness for horse and human alike.

🌿 And there’s an opportunity to experience it for yourself!

On September 20 at 1 PM, World Center Equestrian is hosting Skills Day, with opportunities to make your own herbal remedies, tour the gardens, farm, and pastures, and connect with others in the community.

It’s a beautiful opportunity to spend time on the land, meet the community, and get a feel for this special place and perhaps get a excited about what we’re creating here this fall. ✨

On November 8, we’ll gather here for an intimate Wild Grace day retreat for women who lead, weaving together rest, nourishment, connection, nature, horses, and the practices at the heart of @matriterra + @wildgraceretreat

.....But who tends to the women tending to the world?

Women leaders, founders, practitioners, creatives, changemakers, and community builders are often exceptionally good at tending to what needs tending!

That brings me to the thing I keep coming back to over and over...

I’ve been thinking deeply about what happens when self-care becomes one more thing we’re responsible for fitting into the margins of our lives that are already asking too much of us.

What if the conversation isn’t only about recovering from depletion but about creating lives, relationships, ways of leading, and communities that actually sustain us?

I wrote about this today in my new blog:

Beyond Self-Care | Restorative Retreats for Women Leaders

And about how this question is shaping the work we’re building through Wild Grace.

If you’ve ever found yourself wondering how to keep tending to what matters without losing yourself in the process, this one’s for you.

Read the full piece at the link in my bio. 💖

Tending ourselves. Tending relationships. Tending communities.
