I’m Shelby, the founder of Sage & Soul Doula. This blog is where we will dive deeper into all things motherhood. As a doula, former labor and delivery nurse, and crunchy boy mama, I am passionate about moms supporting moms.

Motherhood is magical. But that doesn’t mean it’s easy! This is the reason I became interested in doula work to begin with. The more exposure I had to birth and mothering, the more I realized the importance of community and support. The phrase “it takes a village” isn’t exaggerating. Sadly, we have shifted away from communal parenting. This is a huge disadvantage during this critical, lifechanging transformation. As a doula, I show up as part of the village. Beyond my physical presence, this blog provides additional guidance from someone who has been there-personally and professionally. This is where I share the best wisdom I’ve learned along the way, easily accessible for when you need it the most.

On this blog, you can expect educational content, recommendations of products, personal stories, and an open dialogue on it all. If there is a specific topic you want to learn more about, let me know, and I will share the evidence-based information.

I look forward to growing with you on this motherhood journey. My hope is to facilitate a supportive village of likeminded mamas, committed to raising their babies while following their intuition.
