Hi, I am a birth doula located near Columbia, TN. I believe that women are beautifully designed to give birth, and I structure everything I do around supporting and equipping you to have the birth that YOU are looking for. I am a farm girl at heart, former EMS, and now a physiological birth nerd. My priority is to find out what is most important you you, support you in whatever ways you need, and prepare you with the education, resources, and companionship you need to have a great birth experience. Although I serve women in all walks of life, I myself am a Christian and I love supporting and encouraging other sisters in Christ in the spiritual aspects of pregnancy and birth if they so desire. I have experience supporting women both in and out of the hospital, virtually and in person, and I have supported two VBACs as well, both successful.

I am a birth doula and herbalist who supports women and families through pregnancy, labor and early motherhood with steady, hands-on care.

Hi, I'm Corina - midwife, mother, and matrescence facilitator. For over 30 years, I’ve held sacred space for women at their most raw and powerful moments—guiding them through the threshold of childbirth and into the postpartum period as a midwife. As a single mother of three and a purpose-driven entrepreneur, I know intimately the ache of trying to hold it all together while slowly losing touch with myself. After the birth of my third daughter, I was brought to my knees by the depths of postpartum depression and anxiety. I turned to the very tools I now teach—embodiment, feminine power, and the transformational map of matrescence—to reclaim my life from burnout and disconnection. Today, as a midwife and transformational facilitator, I support mothers in doing the same: coming home to themselves, reigniting their passion, and stepping fully into the powerful, integrated women they were born to be—at home, in business, and in the world.

Hi friends! Tara Frigaard here as a new doula, fresh out of her training at the HBI academy. I am continuing to work as an L&D nurse while I slowly work towards completing my certification.

My name is De’ Asia Ford, and I am a passionate mother, postpartum doula, and healthcare professional with a deep commitment to supporting women and families through some of life’s most transformative moments.

Through Sacred Steps Doula Care, my goal is to help families transition into parenthood with greater peace, confidence, and a sense of connection, reminding every mother that she does not have to take this sacred step alone.
