How I Became a Midwife (And What It Means to Me)

I didn’t always know I would become a midwife.

But the seeds were planted early—when I watched the people around me care for one another, when I learned to listen more than I spoke, and when I first saw how powerful birth could be when it was supported with dignity.

Becoming a midwife wasn’t just a career choice—it was a calling. It meant training not only in clinical skills but in trust, intuition, and respect. It meant learning to witness transformation, not control it. And it meant being willing to show up again and again for people at one of the most tender and powerful moments of their lives.

What midwifery has taught me—over and over—is that each person’s experience matters. That healing happens in relationship. That the best care starts by listening.

Every time I step into a birth space or sit beside a client during a prenatal visit, I remember why I do this: because everyone deserves to feel seen, safe, and sovereign in their care.
