Executive Director | Maternal & End-of-Life Health Advocate | Educator | Speaker | Doula | Co-Founder, Doula Business Blueprint | @fitcurvy50plus
I spent 12 years as a birth assistant, lactation consultant, and CBE trainer in The Bradley Method and Birthing From Within, and ran LaLeche League meetings with a passion for supporting women who have become Moms.
Currently, I'm a Certified Birth Doula for all "happy" births regardless of where and how you deliver. I'm also a Bereavement Doula® helping families struggling with grief and loss, as well as an Adoption & Surrogacy Doula and Breastfeeding Counselor.
I am Mom Of 18 (yes - 18 kids!). I've written the blog - Mom’s Running It since 2011, am a published author of a self-help memoir in 2016, and host of Becoming Parents Podcast since May of 2017. I am a Speaker and have 15+ years of experience in the foster care sector as both a parent and a trainer.
I am licensed as a Transformational Coach and NLP Practitioner through the ABNLP. I have received targeted training on topics such as crisis intervention, drug & alcohol addiction, surviving trauma, and su***de prevention, which has equipped me with a solid understanding of how to serve others experiencing trauma.
I’m also married to an amazing man in Reno, NV, and am a runner, minimalist, and healthy lifestyle enthusiast.

The event today - Be Well Fest for DOULA CO-OP of Nevada was just as epic as it was last year. And I got to hang out with some pretty cool community partners as well. Including this group!

The first photo was the inspiration. The second photo I did myself by making my own bias tape out of jean scraps. Yes, it is a little heavy. But not bad for a practice run.
The great thing about having older items or things you get donated or at thrift stores is that the worst case scenario something won’t turn out well and you’ll have more extra material to use on something else.

I don’t have any photos of this one before. It was a really old blazer with shoulder pads and have some wear and tear. I paired it with a jean shirt that had been falling apart to create something a little new and fun.

An old, thrifted, blah skirt got an updated look!

Posting some thrift transformations. Jeans + shirt = new look!
I used the shirt for side panel inserts.

September is NICU Awareness Month, dedicated to honoring neonatal intensive care unit families, celebrating healthcare professionals, and raising support for premature and critically ill infants.
This special month is to acknowledge the challenges NICU patients and families face and providing them with the support and resources they need.
Cheers to my first daughter - now 34 - who made it through an intense NICU stay, made me a Mommy, and has brought light into my life for over 3 decades.

I hope women see how incredible their bodies are.
How much they go through.
The resilience and beauty.
The scars that have been earned.
Grow into your age throughout the years with strength and realize how capable you are.
