Hello there, I’m Ashley ~ apprentice midwife, mother and doula. I am here to serve and share what wisdom I have gleaned over through pregnancy, birth, parenting, divorce, marriage, dis-ease, healing, travel and more (not in that order!) so that you can be empowered to be your OWN healer. That to me, is the true role of a midwife, we don’t save you, we help you harvest the power within yourself so that you save yourself. I love bringing community together and so The Mother Well Collective was born- bridging the gaps between modern motherhood and ancestral living so that we can remember we do not have to carry it all.

 
“Every midwife knows that not until a mother’s womb
softens from the pain of labour will a way unfold
and the infant find that opening to be born.

Oh friend!
There is treasure in your heart, it is heavy with child.
Listen.
All the awakened ones, like trusted midwives are saying,
‘welcome this pain’.
It opens the dark passage of Grace.
