Powerful Birth

Hello, Love ♥

(I made a couple minor but important changes, so I am reposting this)

Did I ever tell you that I had an unassisted/free birth with my baby? Yep! Just me and my dear friend and our babies in attendance... It was possibly the most empowering experience of my life. It impacted me so deeply that I am still feeling the ripples.

Birth is HUGE to me, and I am so grateful to find my niche in the birth advocacy arena :) After the roughly 1,000 hours of researching pregnancy and birth information during my pregnancy, I had synthesized the most pertinent information and compiled it into a "summary" for friends and family interested in my choice (only to plug it into Word and find out it was a light read of 32 pages of pure words - ouch!).

I have taken a lot of that information, added my own voice, supplemented it with gobs of delicious goodies and an artful background, broken it into 4 deeply satisfying chunks, sprinkled it with even more delicious goodies, and created for you...

Powerful Birth e-course!!

First session October 1st - October 28th
Registration ends October 1st

NOTE: This e-course has information for mamas interested in or planning an unassisted birth, but this e-course was designed for any birthing woman who is interested in going inward and making intentional choices about her pregnancy and birth. And this e-course is especially designed for wild sacred women, women who already live out-of-the-box, naturally, self-sufficiently -- and the women who want to!

The e-course includes:
  • The Wild Sacred Birth e-book (in pdf format) is a hand-meets-digital beauty masterpiece, paradigm kapow!, and soul comfort. Warning: it may make you laugh, cry, sing, do the "funky chicken", yell "YES!" into empty rooms, and have deep loving conversations with loved ones. I just know you are going to want to read it again and again as you deeply process the layers of your journey of childbirth.
  • the Explorations & Insplorations workbook (in pdf format) is like yoga for the pregnant heart - it will stretch, align, open you up, and re-energize you, through creative activity ideas and writing prompts galore.
  • the Many Sisters' Voices handbook (in pdf format) is my own collection of articles from a multitude of our birthing sisters' voices sharing one common message: Birth is incredible and powerful, and so are you.
  • 4 hefty soul-delicious chunks of Powerful Birth e-course, dolloped heavily with love, sweetness, and bright shining light. This course is designed to run over the course of 4 weeks, but I know sometimes that deep stuff takes time to really soak in and I am an unschooler to the core, so really it can be done at a self pace. It is dispersed via e-mail and is much much more than just the e-book broken up into pieces -- it is jam-packed with extra goodies, like videos, love letters, affirmations, activities, intention suggestions, and so much more <3
  • A fat e-binder (in pdf format), chocked full of info and natural remedies/ideas for things specific to pregnancy, early labor, active labor, birth, and postpartum. This is a scanned version of the binder I created for my own birth - it contains things you might want to be concerned about during the different stages, complete with color coding to let you know the risk/intervention level.
  • 1 year paid subscription to Wild Sacred Souls' Tribe -- think internet forum meets "at home" with deep loving connections between sister birth goddesses. I know how important these spaces are, especially during huge transitions like birth. I was made to create tribes, and I can't wait to share this one with you. Imagine a bloomin, thrivin, wild-woman-circlin', supportive, love-centered, ever-evolving, co-created space to connect deeply with mamas who will inspire you, love you, spot you while you stretch and expand, and wow you with their awesome.
  • Coming Soon: A beautiful hand/digital-hybrid Soulful Pregnancy Journal <3 This will be my warmbest gift of love to you: a keepsake of your pregnancy journey for your baby or babies. This is the journal I wish I had had when I was pregnant - a whole collection of the experience of pregnancy and birth. And because I really want it to be extra special to you and your child, I want to include 5 personalized pages for you. More details later :)
This e-course will inspire you to:
  • question what you thought you knew about pain and safety in childbirth
  • locate, process, and release your fears concerning pregnancy and birth
  • sink deeply into your inner knowing
  • connect deeper with other mamas, and people in general
  • embody a birth goddess vibe
  • relish your pregnancy journey
  • look forward to giving birth
  • make choices from a place of trust, rather than fear or anxiety
  • plan a sacred, well-prepared birth
  • start creating a birth legacy
  • become and be a self-trust master, and watch it grow into other areas of your life
  • possibly kiss your partner and other children more :)
So, at this point you are probably noticing I have poured my heart and soul into this course. Birthing women hold the warmest place in my heart (yes, I am the woman who stops dancing down the grocery store isle to get all teary at a big beautiful baby belly), and I want to share that deep sacred love with you at a time when I think you can't possibly soak enough of it in <3 I truly believe (and purposely designed) this package to prepare you as whole-ly as I could imagine would be useful. I know that you probably don't have the ability or time to do the research I did, but you deserve to know what I found, what I realized, what changed my birth legacy and, honestly-really-truly, what changed my entire life. I can't imagine having the depth of courage and self-knowing to revolutionize and redesign my life and my relationships, without the self-trust and empowerment that I finally knew through my own powerful birth.

Are you ready to talk price?

I'm not really feeling drawn toward dividing this whole package into parts, so I am not going to give you a breakdown of costs, but I know how valuable this information is to the world, and I have faith that you will give what you feel in your heart is right price for you based on what you have to give. So, just sit for a moment with all of the information you will receive from this package and ask yourself what is the right price for you, and when you feel good with a number, there is your answer. If you don't have the means right now to pay what you feel is right, feel free to come back and make payments when you can. Yes, this is your first exercise in "How to become a self-trust master AND birth goddess in one e-adventure" :)

So, are you ready? :)))




Once I receive your financial blessings, you will receive a confirmation love letter from me touching base with you on your personal journey and our shared work. Once I have connected with you, you will receieve the soul-inspiring course work, which is perfect for those lone wolf birth goddesses who are feeling drawn toward delving into their own solo birth quest with just the hardy materials (no Tribe dessert with e-course sprinkles) -- that is fun-talk for: you can simply take the materials to work on alone without the Tribe or the e-course-specific extra stuff.

We will be in touch :))

OMGosh, I love you,

p.s. - I am not positive I will be offering this product as a "pay with your heart" forever. So, if this changes, I will let you know (and hopefully give advance warning) :))

Morning Motivation

Hello, My Love ♥

I'm really realllllly excited to tell you about something I want to do with you! (Can you see me doing the excited dance in my seat? :))

Okay, but first, I have a question (or more) for you...

Do mornings feel heavy for you? Do you feel like you could be gearing up your engines for the day, but for whatever reason just aren't? Would you like a boost?

Alright, here is my big huge idea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Morning Motivation is a 10-15 minute phone call from me to you every morning for 1 week (5 days)!! It would probably go something like this:
You (groggy): Hello?
Me (amped up and jumping up and down as I talk): Good beautiful morning full of possibilities!!!!!!!!!!!
You: Haha. Good morning.
Me: I am so excited about your new project that you are starting today!!! When you told me about it in your e-mail, I was like "THAT IS SO COOL!!! I am so excited to help get you all inspired every morning this week so you can make it happen!"
You: Thank you! Me, too!
Me: Yay!!!!! Let's do the happy dance together before we get started!
You: Yay! Way better than coffee!!!
Me: Yipppeeeeeeeee! (doing the cabbage patch) Oh yeah! Oh yeah!

Okay, it will maybe go something like that :D It will probably be way uncooler :))



I am really good at infecting people with my joyfulness, and I am so stankin giddy about spreading the morning joy with people!!!!!!!! Mornings are such a beautiful way to start the day! So full of infinite possibilities, like a gift you get to open for roughly 16 hours!!!! How cool is that?!

I am thinking this kind of thing would be SO perfect for someone who is implimenting something new into their life and could use a bit of remembering, clarity, inspiration to get the gears moving in that direction for the day. Like someone who is quitting smoking, starting a new healthy eating lifestyle, getting into the swing of gentle parenting or homeschooling, or just generally wanting to stay mindful of something throughout the day. I believe in you! I want to tell you every morning :))

Someone who is starting a new project might appreciate some extra enthusiasm... like a business or some crafty gift-giving, or anything that could use some extra pep for a week. Or what about finals week? Yikes! Been there, done that! Morning Motivation: possibly more tastey than green tea or energy drinks -- definitely less crash on the other end LOL Absolutely more addictive! :)))

Or what about someone who just wants to be a morning person and just can't muster the energy to be one, so wants to get into the habit of feeling full of insight and energy to start off their day. Someone who wants to start their day off with a certain intention and could really soak up my nourishing bountiful energy :) I would love to help you get used to starting off your day like that!




So, here is the thing...

Obviously, I only have so many 10-15 minute increments available in the morning :) I really really REALLY want to share this with you! I know you will love it! I know you will feel more peaceful and aligned and energized for your day, like a spiritual workout that keeps you going all day long. I want to see your family and home transform the way mine has when I started shifting my energy in the mornings.

So, hurry! Hurry and get signed up! Hurry and join me in the mornings, so we can share a virtual cuppa something delicious!

So, the cost is $50, which breaks down to about $10 a call -- pretty darn awesome! That is like 2 cups of something from Starbucks (but even better) delivered to your door! :)) Thank you for participating in sustaining my little family and enabling me to continue giving all of my heart to the world :)


Even if you aren't ready or interested in joining me for Morning Motivation, I hope this blog post gave you some ideas of how you can feel when starting off your day :) Here is another place you can find some delicious wisdom from fellow Morning Goddesses :)

I love you, I love you, I love youuuuuuuuu!

Eek! Eek! Eek! The Goddess Circle

Okay, I must share my newest most amazing adventures!!!!!!

I finally, finally joined Leonie's Goddess Circle! Eeep! I'm bursting with excitement and abundance!!! This was my Facebook status when I first joined:
Crying with happiness over here. Tears of sobbing joy (much to my teenager's teasing LOL). I finally did something I have been wanting to do for 2 years, something that I know will be transformative. I finally invested in myself. And I'm not even scared!!!! I am so finally ready, and I can't believe this is real... I joined the Goddess Circle at... [insert link to the GoddessGuidebook.com]
Joining the Goddess Circle has kinda been a dream of mine for a while, but what made me finally jump and do it was so I could become a Business Goddess :D Yep, I'm so finally ready and serious about this. Have you noticed? lol

And I have been thinking a lot and playing a lot with what the heck I really just want to do. I mean, I want to do about a-million-five-hundred-thousand (yep, I just channeled one of the kids there LOL) things for this world and all it's living things. But what is the essence of what I want to do? Where do I want to start growing from?

Well, I think that is why I joined the business e-course LOL I have so so much in the works! And I am so excited to share this journey with youuuuuuu! ♥

Love you!
V, Wild, Soul, Zen, or Hey You :))



p.s. - just for the beauty and brightness of it, I wanted to share my intro to the Circle ♥ :D
Namaste, my fellow goddess sisters!

I literally cried when I read "Welcome to the Goddess Circle" after my payment was processed. I have been wanting to do this for years and finally just said it was time and it would work out financially.

I am positively BURSTING with joy and excitement, like a hyper puppy, to be here :)) When I calm down a bit, I am sure I will feel totally sacred zen oneness :))

A bit about me.... My mom named me Vanessa. I have gone by many names and currently resonate most with V, Wild, Soul, Zen, or Hey You :))

Me and my kids live in an RV. We had plans to travel the US but found that, although we were fine racing out of our house, we weren't ready to leave our dearest friends and comfort zone. So, we live with panormaic views and lots of company in San Diego County :))

What fills my life is the joy of my children. We haven't always lived this way, but we are pretty comfortably grounded in and grateful for our self-designed and -directed life. A couple short-cut terms are unschooling (radical unschooling for us), whole-life/natural learning/living [--wish I had also mentioned consensual living]. Basically, I respect my children's autonomy and personal development, and just live a joyful and fun life and trust that they are learning everything they need. Living in an RV provides simplicity and flow and movement and connection and self-sufficieny that we are thriving on right now. Some days are utter chaos (gripping the handlebars of life, yelling WHEEEEEEEE, and appologizing all over the place for wheeling over people's toes), most are zen, all are beautiful joyful adventures. People often ask how I do it all -- I don't. I prioretize and only do what I love to do :)

I think I am the Goddess of Love. Love is truly my religion -- I practice it and extend it to envelope every interaction I have in my life. I just love, and when I'm not sure, I ask myself "What would love do?" Also, I picked love, because it kinda umbrellas over the other stuff I want to be a goddess of LOL Like emotional midwifery for people who want to live more freely, like supporting mamas in every phase of mamahood (conception, pregnancy, birth, babies, toddlers, all the way up!), like nourishing the world one hug at a time :)

What I am hoping to get from the Goddess Circle is tribeness, connection, inspiration, my own emotional midwifery so that I can live more free, too :) All the delicious goodies that come from joining a sacred circle of radiant women :)))
