Finding Your Authentic Voice: Mentoring for Birth & Holistic Practitioners


icon representing directions and crossroads in brand purple

You’ve completed another certification, invested in another training, and still that voice whispers: “Not enough. Not yet ready.”

Despite your knowledge, experience, and heart-centered dedication, perhaps what’s missing is confidence in your unique approach or permission to trust what you already know.

You’ve gathered beautiful tools and absorbed valuable wisdom, yet impostor syndrome keeps you collecting more qualifications,believing that just one more course will finally make you feel legitimate.

What if what you’re seeking isn’t another credential, but rather the courage to integrate what you already know in a way that feels authentically yours?

As someone who spent years in this same cycle of seeking external validation, I understand this journey intimately. My mentoring relationship offers a sacred space to reconnect with your inner wisdom, clarify your unique medicine, and step fully into your practice with confidence that comes from within.

Think of me as a sherpa: if you were going to climb Mount Everest, you would hire a guide who has done it several times before, who knows the mountain inside out, who knows the easy route and the scenic route, who can help cheer you on and help carry your bags.

Are you standing at the edge of transformation, yearning for guidance?

That space between who you’ve been and who you’re becoming, whether through professional evolution or life’s unexpected transitions, often feels like uncharted territory. The map you’ve relied on no longer seems to apply.

As your mentor, I offer not just a compass for these in-between spaces, but compassionate companionship for the journey. Our work together creates a sacred container where uncertainty can transform into clarity, where doubt can alchemize into knowing, and where your own inner guidance can emerge from the noise of external expectations.

You don’t have to navigate these waters alone.

I will gently challenge the limiting stories you’ve absorbed, using guided meditation, drumming and somatic awareness to help you craft a new narrative aligned with your inner wisdom.

Our work will include rituals and practices that expand your comfort zone in aligned ways, helping you connect with your deepest knowing.

About me, your mentor

For over a decade, I’ve walked alongside women during their most transformative life moments, weaving together science and sacred wisdom. My journey from research scientist to doula to spiritual mentor has given me a unique lens to understand both the physiological and soul-deep needs for calm in our chaotic world.

What sets my approach apart is the blend of scientific understanding of the nervous system, deep reverence for traditional women’s wisdom, practical tools for modern life challenges, and sacred ceremony work.

Through this work, I’ve witnessed time and again how women transform when given the right blend of practical support and sacred space to breathe, be, and become.

Words from Women Who’ve Walked This Path

Quote icon in teal

“Sophie is honest and works from lived experience rather than what she has read from the pages of a book, this really helps with not feeling judged. There is a lot of shame that goes along with feeling overwhelmed and Sophie doesn’t allow that to enter the discussion.”

User icon in teal

“A session with Sophie is totally worth its weight in gold; she is inspirational and full of ideas and thoughtful questions, and I came away motivated to make changes and find new approaches to help my own growth.”

Quote icon in teal

“In a short space of time Sophie offered me some practical solutions to problems I’ve had for years. So excited to get started with them.”
