"We are vibrant beings,
holding seeds of new life
It is time to return,
to gather together
To feel whole again."
Life is full of Lullabies, Labyrinths and Laments.
I help to prepare, support and celebrate the thresholds of life,
the beginning, middle and at the end.
I am Su,
Please talk to me about what you wish for...
I work as a Gatherer of Women in particular and people in general. A creative being who likes to connect, meander, be in the place of not knowing and return safely.
I am a mother of two amazing beings, a mother for more than a decade now, arriving late and breathless on the scene of Motherhood, after running scared for many a moon! After the birth of my son, I wanted to re-train and be able to share with others this wierd and wonderful place of Motherhood, revisiting that other magical and turbulent land of Childhood, and charting the choppy waters of Parenthood!
The Lullaby

I am also co-director of CanDo Doulas CIC, a wonderful group of doulas across the West Midlands working with pregnant women with complex needs. Interested in joining us, supporting us or referring someone to us, please visit our website.
The Labyrinth
The amazing creative symbol of the labyrinth - ancient and enduring method of calming down and tapping into your own intuition and other hidden levels of knowing. During my training as a Birthing From Within Mentor I was inspired by Pam England to look at Labyrinths and Narrative Medicine and feel the power of the story and our words.
Both of these elements feed into all my other work, one way or another. To find out more please go to my Patreon - some of the elements are available to see for free, but if inspired to know more do join in with others who support my work or as a way of staggering any costs of my other services, if that helps.. For more basic info on what a labyrinth is and how it can help.
Workshops coming up - just being finalised.....
I am also part of the Silver Spoons Collective and I am Witch Exhibition, more news on that soon too...
The Lament
