My passion for maternal and child health led me to continue my studies and pursue the path of midwifery. And here I am now... still catching babies.

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.

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

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.

The Glory was entrusted to you, you weren't given permission to pass it on as you see fit.

I hate these questions - I don't like talking about this stuff [popular culture], because it's so... to me, it's so ordinary.

It's one of the reasons [professional politicians] why people's confidence in the electoral system has declined so much. They have all become shadowy political creatures

Some people seem as if they can never have been children, and others seem as if they could never be anything else.

You three have done quite enough today: all of you and your feckless, treacherous god.

I love Claw Money. They always send me stuff. I always wear their sweatpants.

If an article is attractive, or useful, or inexpensive, they'll stop making it tomorrow; if it's all three, they stopped making it yesterday.

I think probably Australians have just a little more taste than most people.

Most of all I don't want to be bored. That's why I'd rather do something that has some sort of ambition, that risks failing, rather than make safer, more comfortable choices.

Cease to think that the decrees of the gods can be changed by prayers.
