Advocacy has always been part of me, but the depth of this work and my purpose in it didn’t fully land until I became a parent. Suddenly, I understood, viscerally, why support and healing matter. When you’re the one in need, everything changes; what once seemed optional becomes essential. I do this work because I know what it feels like to crave understanding, guidance, and belonging. I never want another mother, parent, or family to feel unseen or alone.

My vision is a world where mothers are carried through pregnancy, birth, and beyond. I see a healed village as a place where every mother has someone to call, a hand to steady her, and a community that says, “We’ve got you.” Where the wisdom of generations is shared, not hoarded; where mothers and families are lifted up, not left behind. If we don’t make this vision real, we risk losing even more. More joy, more connection, more possibility for our children and ourselves.

This work has led me to:

• Found a nonprofit dedicated to ensuring mothers and families have access to the support they need to thrive

• Walk alongside families across different systems of care, helping them navigate challenges while strengthening connection and resilience

• Build partnerships with professionals and organizations who share a commitment to supporting families in meaningful, lasting ways

• Create programs that focus on maternal mental health, early relationships, and conscious, connected parenting
