I’m going to be really busy in the coming weeks (months?) with the work that is to be done for the opening of the new Portland Midwifery and Doula Care Center. It’s such an immense joy to get up each day and work towards opening the doors for business. We will be having our painting done and the floors put in next as we shop for the decor.

Personal Improvement Goals

Work Work Work, But In A Good Way!
I feel like I have been working a lot, but there isn’t a lot to show for it. Yet!
But, I’m right on the precipice.
Tomorrow I am going to have a chat with my doula partner and pick her doula brain and then next week it’s back to work behind the scenes and lots of meetings!!
