I love that God is saturating my business. That might mean my market is smaller and I’m not the birth support for everyone, but that’s ok. God gave me this business. He opened doors. He created divine appointments. He filled me with passion and conviction to dive into birth work. So I have to honor him. I have to put this work on the altar just like everything in my life.

I love that voice memo prayers are going out daily. I love that we’re processing trauma by grieving with God and asking Him to come in and provide inner healing. I love that we’re citing the Bible and remaining in that place of complete and total worship on the precipice of birth.

Even as the enemy tries to whisper that I need to be more likeable, that I need to have more of an online presence, that I need to be making a certain dollar amount…giving my career to God is the ultimate reminder that He is my provider and I just want to be open to letting Him work through me.

Thank you, Jesus for these mothers. Thank you for their servant hearts—willing to savor, sacrifice, and draw themselves beyond their own ability to draw closer to you. May every client I work with feel your presence on the mountain tops and in the valleys.

Surrender your expectations for birth…the phrase that pi**ed off a thousand moms 😂 I’ve heard this so many times, and I’m curious, did you? How did you do it? Asking for a friend ✌🏽

Make family shoots fun again ☀️

Okay as I type this, there is chaos ensuing around me with 3 year old boy logic destroying everything in my morning routine…so how do we make anything fun when it’s usually us moms who end up planning the annual family shoot?

Ask your photographer! This is actually something I really love doing and thrive at. Storytelling. When you’re telling the story of your family—your favorite place, your favorite activities, your favorite colors…it’s less stressful, because it’s less showing up to all face forward and force a smile.
