It’s been a weird month that feels both long and short! This is primarily a personal update and also a share about three things (I tried to keep it to 3!) that I came away with during my last intense somatic training. It does tie back to birth and birth work in many many ways […]
Libel and lies suck, so here’s the truth if you are a nosey person who has been wondering! If you’re on social media perhaps you’ve come across it and here is our final and only response. Sam Hypes was released from her support position with Indie Birth in May 2024 for inconsistent work effort and […]
I feel like it used to be a “thing” to want proof of something before you bought it/chose it. But nowadays, in the era of *literally anyone can “make” a midwifery school if they have the tech skills* I wonder if that is still true. Indie Birth Midwifery School as it’s known now has been […]

We’re coming down to the wire here with the last week that you can enroll in our Sacred Birth Certificate program. I don’t really think about writing these emails as a way of “selling” anyone on our stuff. My sense is that many of you feel that this program IS perhaps right for you and […]
I loved having this chat with another of our wisdom keepers from the Sacred Birth Certificate program. I love Felicia’s way of speaking about what sacred is, her varied experiences of serving women and a quick swerve into the blood mysteries and the wisdom of the womb. I think you will love this conversation and […]
