“When I was pregnant at 25, I knew nothing. I had no community,” she said. “I dove in blissfully unaware about birth and its mysteries.”

After gaining 10 years worth of experience as a doula, Kirke now treasures her birth community and what she has continued to learn about pregnancies.

She also addressed her future child, saying, “You’re already teaching us how to stay in the day in a way we’ve never had to, little one.”
