The way a woman is treated during birth can echo through generations
Philosophy
You don’t need to be fixed, rushed or managed through life’s great transitions. You just need the space and environment to remain connected to yourself.
During birth, writing, grief, motherhood, or any life transformation, I am interested in what becomes possible when a person feels truly witnessed.
Birth is not only physical. It is an emotional, relational, spiritual and deeply human life experience. The atmosphere surrounding the family matters. The pace matters. Presence matters. Genuine care matters.
Hi I’m Sophia,
I beleive expression is medicine
Im a mother, writer, childbirth educator and experienced birth doula. For two decades Ive walked alongside women and families through pregnancy, birth and the tender thresholds of becoming. Having attended hundreds of births and supported thousands of pregnancies, my work is devoted to helping women return to their own inner compass.
Rooted in deep listening and reverence for the body, my approach to birth and life is both intuitive and grounded. I create spaces where women can slow down, soften, empty and begin to trust themselves again. Through my doula work, writing circles and group programs, I invite women into deeper relationship with their bodies, their stories and the unseen threads that connect us.
I explore life’s most potent themes through an honest and unconventional lens: birth, grief, love, fear, motherhood and transformation. I believe expression is medicine and that when women are given permission to feel, speak and move freely, something true and vital is restored. My workshops and circles are known for their warmth, depth and sincerity. They are places where armour loosens, authenticity surfaces and connection becomes a living, breathing experience.
I live and work in Aotearoa, New Zealand, where I am writing a book on birth.
