About
Birth, Baby, Breastfeeding ConsultantHelping you create the birth you want
Hi, I’m Karen! I’ve spent 35 years studying human presence, trust and the art of surrender.
My Story
Before i became a mother to four and grandmother, i studied acting at Studio 58 in Vancouver and under Uta Hagen in New York. I learned how human beings hold tension, how breath creates power and how presence overrides fear.
Then i met my ex-husband skydiving. We ran a parachute center together where i taught students how to manage absolute terror, trust their equipment and surrender to the freefall.
When i became pregnant with my first son i realized something profound,
Birth is the ultimate freefall.
My Philosophy
Rewire the Mind
Fear tightens the body. We work on your mental framing so labour feels like a journey, not a thread.
Filter the noise
Medical opinions, family stories, and online forums create static. I teach you how to quiet the outside world so you can hear your own voice.
Trust the Gut
Your body was designed for this. We hone your intuitive decision making for labour choices and early parenting.
My Approach
Birth isn’t just a physiological event-it’s 80% psychological. Over three decades as a certified childbirth educator, doula , breastfeeding counsellor and business owner I’ve seen thousands of mothers get overwhelmed by external noise, medical opinions and internet panic. Your mind might need rewiring but your gut is always right. I’m here to help you shut out the noise during the biggest transition of your life.
