I don’t think I can really put into words what Asyia has done for me. I was on the fence about hiring a doula but I know I wanted a better birth experience than what I had with my son 13 years ago. She was the first doula of 9 that I interviewed and my heart/mind kept going back to how comfortable and at peace she made me feel with just our first conversation. I needed not just a guide through physiological birth but also a friend to joke with, lean on, cry to and trust with my life and the life of my baby. Asyia was immediately with me during an emergency 33 week bleed. She continued to check in and answer any and all questions I had about the birth process. When it came time to labor she was like a pillar or strength and wisdom for me to hold onto. When I was afraid, she calmed my fears. When I was joking around, she was laughing with me. When things were intense and my doubt was strong she was speaking from my own inner voice out loud to trust my body, trust my baby and know I WAS doing this. My husband was an active participant and her guidance really helped him step into his confidence as a man helping bring his child into the world. I have walked away from this birth experience with a new found love for myself and for the body I grew up hating. I never felt good enough, strong enough, capable enough. Asyia didn’t just help me give birth in a way I wanted.. she helped guide me through a full spiritual, emotional, physical and mental transformation that has changed me for life. Thank you for believing in me, for walking with me and for helping me to complete my family
