Founder of The Embodied Birth Collective

A nurturing presence for life's most transformative beginnings.

I'm Alie—a mother of two daughters, a daughter, a sister, an aunt, and a woman who has spent much of her life supporting, encouraging, and holding space for others.

My journey into this work is rooted in both lived experience and a deep passion for personal growth, healing, and the extraordinary transitions that shape our lives. As a mother, I understand that welcoming a child is about so much more than birth itself. It is a transformation of identity, relationships, priorities, and the way we see ourselves and the world.

I believe every woman deserves to feel heard, respected, supported, and empowered as she moves through pregnancy, birth, and motherhood. Not because there is one perfect way to experience these moments, but because every woman's story, body, family, and needs are uniquely her own.

The Heart Behind the Work

Throughout my life, I've been drawn to caring for others, especially women and babies during tender, vulnerable, and life-changing seasons. I'm naturally curious about what helps people feel safe, connected, confident, and more at home within themselves.

Over time, that calling grew into a deeper exploration of holistic wellness, the mind-body connection, emotional healing, and the power of compassionate support.

My work brings together evidence-informed education, practical tools, and holistic practices that invite you to slow down, tune inward, and approach your journey with greater intention. Through guided visualization, hypnotherapy-informed relaxation, breath awareness, somatic practices, and sound-based relaxation, I aim to create experiences that nurture both body and mind.

I believe that support should honor the whole person—not just the physical experience of pregnancy and birth, but also the emotional, relational, and personal transformation unfolding alongside it.

A Blend of Training, Intuition & Compassion

My professional background brings together multiple approaches to personal development, mindset, and holistic support. My training and credentials include:

• Internationally Certified Life Coach — supporting personal growth, self-awareness, confidence, and meaningful change.

• Hypnotherapist — using appropriate guided relaxation and hypnotic techniques to support individual goals and intentions.

• Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) Practitioner — drawing on communication, language, and mindset tools to help people explore new perspectives and patterns.

• Holistic Healer — incorporating complementary wellness practices with an emphasis on relaxation, connection, and personal well-being.

• Doula — providing compassionate, nonjudgmental support as families prepare for and navigate the birth experience.

I see these modalities as complementary tools, not one-size-fits-all solutions. My approach is centered on your autonomy, your preferences, and what feels supportive to you. I also value collaboration with your medical and birth-care team, recognizing the importance of appropriate clinical guidance throughout pregnancy and birth.

My Philosophy: Your Journey, Your Way

I don't believe you need to become a different version of yourself to prepare for motherhood. I believe you deserve the space, information, and support to discover what feels right for you.

Maybe you want to feel more confident in your body. Maybe you want practical tools for navigating labor, a calmer relationship with uncertainty, or a deeper connection with your partner. Maybe you simply want someone in your corner who will listen without judgment and remind you that your voice matters.

Whatever brings you here, my intention is to meet you with warmth, curiosity, respect, and compassion.

There is room for science and spirituality, preparation and flexibility, strength and softness. There is room for different birth preferences, different family structures, and different definitions of what a supported experience looks like.

You don't have to navigate every transition alone.

Welcome to The Embodied Birth Collective

I created The Embodied Birth Collective to bring together thoughtful, personalized support for pregnancy, birth, and the transition into motherhood.

My vision is to create nurturing spaces where families can learn, connect, breathe, move, rest, and feel supported—whether through private sessions, birth preparation, holistic comfort practices, or group embodiment workshops.

At the heart of everything I offer is a simple belief: when people feel safe, informed, and genuinely supported, they have more room to connect with themselves and make choices that feel true to them.

It would be an honor to be part of your journey.

With warmth,
Alie
