Angie gave birth to her first child in October 1988 and experienced for the first time in her adult life someone outside herself disconnecting her from her inner wisdom, also known as intuition.
In 2003, a little more than a year after the birth of her fifth child, she became a La Leche League (LLL) Leader and began her journey into the darkness that plagues women around the world. It was as a LLL Leader that she discovered the breastfeeding challenges being experienced by women all had their foundation in the type of birth experienced. She served her community as a LLL Leader for 9 years before becoming an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant in 2011. She retired from LLL in 2012 when her family moved to Mexico for an extended work assignment for her husband.
In 2005, eight months after giving birth to her sixth child, Angie became a Bradley Method instructor and birth doula. She began holding childbirth classes in her home and offering her birth doula services to her students. Her childbirth education and birth doula business grew rapidly as word spread there was someone teaching and supporting women in birth who had "lots of personal experience."
Angie supported 40 couples during the birth process in her first year as a birth doula with her seventh baby and a mother's helper by her side. Her students learned more than they expected to learn while they also watched her breastfeed and lovingly tend to older children while teaching and supporting them through the birth process. One expectant father shared how her class was "college level material."
By 2009, Angie and her family had moved to another state where she also taught childbirth education and offered her birth doula services. It was at this time that she discovered she could no longer be complicit in another woman's traumatizing experience and walked away from childbirth education and birth doula work with the desire to become a home birth midwife. She believed it would be the only way for her to guarantee that women - at least the women and families she would serve - would experience birth as the uplifting and relationship strengthening process she knew it to be. At this time, she started writing her own childbirth education course.
During this time she became a Certified Life Coach while also completing two degrees in Natural Health. One a Bachelor's in Natural Health Studies and the other credentials her as a Doctor of Natural Health. Her studies taught her much about nutrition and how government entities were blocking life giving information because it interfered with the financial bottom line of large pharmaceutical companies.
Angie served women as a traditional and independent home birth midwife from 2014 to 2019. During this time, she discovered that birth wasn't being taught in any formal midwifery training program. She coined the phrase "man-made baby delivery system" as she discovered that birth was being blamed when things went "wrong" because no one really knew or understood birth anymore. The separation of woman from intuition had created a dependence in women as they searched for the one person who would "make" her birth a safe experience.
Angie's clients sought her out because they had an innate knowing that they (1) didn't "need" anyone to "make" birth a safe experience, and (2) had the desire to learn the truth about birth from an experienced birther. As a midwife, Angie offers truly autonomous, trauma-informed and woman directed care.
