As a midwife, I am immersed in Oxytocin day and night.

Birthing is the most profound initiation to spirituality a woman can have.

Every baby's first breath on Earth could be one of peace and love. Every mother should be healthy and strong. Every birth could be safe and loving. But our world is not there yet

I imagine a world in which all humans are born with an intact capacity to love, and I am willing to devote my life to making it happen.

I am just one of many many thousands of midwives, who are devoted to saving lives gently.

Women will always pay the price for love, that is why God makes us so much stronger than men.

I came to the conclusion that bringing Humans to earth with an intact ability to LOVE is essential if we are to survive as a species.

Oxytocin is the hormone of love. We share it when we have a good conversation, we share it when we make love, and when we hug, and BIRTH is the biggest brightest time of rich oxytocin-sharing.

Gentle birth, protecting mother and baby, is a solution that I believe will result in positive change for our society.

Childbirth being one's most significant life passage, those close to us when we open to birth a baby will never be forgotten.

I became a fierce advocate for gentle birth as a solution for the most pressing problems of our times - a solution that begins at the source.

Nothing is more important than you, so don't fear or feel stress, whatever you do.

When life knocks you to your knees and it will why get up! If it knocks you to your knees again as it will well isn't that the best position from which to pray?

Prayer is the voice of faith.

I think I gravitate towards people who express themselves in a simple and funny way.

Now I see it clearly. My whole life has pointed in one direction. I see that now. There never has been any choice for me.

Two lives met across death and centuries. To ask what it meant is meaningless. There is no destiny. But sometimes there is bravery

I definitely wouldn't shy away from doing another action based project, but I feel like my forte is more like playing real, ordinary people. I'm a girl's girl.

Mystics are all a bit funny in the head anyway," the priest added cynically, "which is why the church locks them all up in mental hospitals and euphemistically calls these institutions monasteries.

I am learning every day to allow the space between where I am and where I want to be to inspire me and not terrify me.

Maybe the one I enjoyed playing most was A Month in the Country.
