I'm Dasia, a birth worker, maternal health advocate, and speaker based in Middle Georgia.
I've been supporting families through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum since 2019. I'm a Black mother who experienced birth trauma while serving in the military and later achieved an empowering home birth. That transformation shaped everything about how I show up for families and how I advocate for change.
I've worked with first-time moms, VBACs, high-risk pregnancies, and postpartum families navigating some of the hardest weeks of their lives. I've also built a birth business from the ground up, learning the hard way what it takes to sustain this work without burning out.
I bring lived experience, professional expertise, and a commitment to telling the truth, even when it's uncomfortable.
