In her case, the body has taught the mind how to receive faith. She has had 5 different home birth experiences, some with midwives and some without.  Because of the faith training built in these experiences, she found Him calling her to write a book in 2019. Her family lives in Richmond, Virginia and cultivates 5 agricultural acres in the middle of a suburban neighborhood, with a large garden, some dairy sheep, chickens and other such creatures.

I am a believer, wife, mother to a toddler, birth doula, and social worker living in North Carolina. I have been a birth doula for 7 years and had my own planned home birth in 2021. I have spanned the spectrum in the birth worker world, primarily attending hospital and birth center births for several years until my own planned home birth. God has placed a deep desire in my heart to see the home birth community grow within my local community as we have limited options and access. Part of my story, through my own planned home birth, has been God showing me the innate design He has placed on pregnancy, birth, womanhood, and mothering. I have a deep respect for God's design and trust in a Woman's body. God revealed much of this to me through my own planned home birth that resulted in a cesarean, also known as a home birth cesarean. I'm excited to share and connect with other like-minded women. IG: @morganjene We are called as women and mothers to boldly proclaim the truth.
