Frequently asked questions

Answered by Pura Vida Eastern Wellness

• How much experience do you have in your field?

  I have been supporting families as a birth and postpartum doula since 2016, providing care through pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period with a focus on physical, emotional, and mindful support.

  In addition to my professional training, my work as a Soul Midwife and Death Doula is deeply informed by both experience and lived perspective. My time in the military, including a personal near-death experience, profoundly shaped how I understand presence, resilience, and the human transition process.

  Through my work at The Bohemian Farmstead, I also experience the full cycle of life firsthand—welcoming new life into the world and navigating loss within my own herd. These experiences have strengthened my ability to hold space with compassion, steadiness, and respect for both joy and grief.

  Altogether, I bring nearly a decade of hands-on experience, combined with a deeply grounded, intuitive approach to supporting individuals and families through life’s most significant transitions.

• What can families expect when working with you?

  Families can expect a calm, compassionate, and deeply present space where they feel supported, informed, and never alone. I meet each family exactly where they are—emotionally, spiritually, and practically—offering guidance without judgment and support without pressure.

  As a Soul Midwife and Death Doula, I help create an environment of peace and dignity, whether that means sitting quietly at the bedside, guiding gentle breathwork, explaining what to expect during the dying process, or simply holding space for emotions as they arise.

  I support both the individual and their loved ones—helping families feel more confident, connected, and at ease during a time that can otherwise feel overwhelming. Together, we focus on presence, comfort, and honoring the unique journey of each person.

  Above all, families can expect to feel held, respected, and supported through every step of the transition, with care that is intuitive, grounded, and deeply human.

• What services do you specialize in?

  As a Soul Midwife and Death Doula, I specialize in providing compassionate, non-medical support to individuals and families navigating the end-of-life journey. My work focuses on creating a calm, meaningful, and supported transition—honoring both the physical and emotional-spiritual aspects of this sacred time.

  I offer:

  End-of-life planning support (emotional preparation, legacy work, intention setting)
  Vigil and bedside presence for comfort, reassurance, and grounding energy
  Guided mindfulness and breathwork to ease fear, anxiety, and discomfort
  Support for families and loved ones, helping them understand what to expect and how to be present
  Grief support and integration, both before and after passing
  Rituals and sacred space creation, personalized to each individual’s beliefs and wishes

  As a “Soul Midwife,” I hold space for the full transition—not just the physical passing, but the emotional, energetic, and deeply human experience of letting go. This work is gently informed by my own near-death experience during military service, allowing me to support others with presence, empathy, and a deep respect for the process.

  My approach is calm, intuitive, and grounded—focused on ensuring that no one feels alone during one of life’s most profound transitions.
