In this episode, I am returning briefly behind the mic to share a personal update and to honor the season I am in.
Recorded on the Cancer full moon in the depths of winter, this episode speaks to why Soul Evolution has been quiet, what has been unfolding behind the scenes, and why this pause was not a choice, but a necessity.
I share openly about navigating family crisis, entering the court system, and the decisions I have had to make to clear my plate and focus on my son’s stability. I reflect on the profound births I witnessed this past year, including free births, first-time home births, VBACs, and complex clinical scenarios that have deeply shaped my discernment and next steps.
This episode also marks a moment of vocational honesty, as I speak to a growing call toward Certified Professional Midwife licensure, and what it would mean to step more fully into responsibility, accountability, and skilled care for women seeking physiological birth.
Finally, I reflect on winter as a lived experience, not just a metaphor. A season of contraction, grief, uncertainty, and trust. A reminder that women are cyclical beings, and that honoring the pause is part of the path.
Soul Evolution is currently on hiatus, but this is not an ending. It is a turning inward, a listening, and a preparation for what will be born when the time is right.
Thank you to this community for your continued support, your listening, your sharing, and your trust.
