Empowering Journeys
How My Personal Experience Qualifies Me to Be Your Mentor
Life is a series of journeys, and throughout mine, I’ve discovered a passion for helping others navigate some of the most transformative and beautiful experiences life has to offer. As a healthcare professional, mentor, and lactation consultant, I have had the privilege of playing a significant role in the lives of countless individuals and families. Today, I want to share my story and explain why my unique blend of personal experiences and professional expertise makes me well-qualified to be a coach in surrogacy, breastfeeding/breast pumping, and nursing.
Surrogacy: A Journey of Love and Fulfillment
My own surrogacy experience began over a decade ago when the seed of becoming a surrogate was planted while interacting with surrogates during prenatal care. Inspired by the desire to help another couple on their journey to parenthood, I embarked on my own surrogacy journey in 2021. The process was not without its challenges, but with the support of experienced mentors, I successfully connected with intended parents and gave birth to a healthy baby in 2023. As a surrogacy coach and mentor, I bring compassion and empathy, offering guidance and support to individuals on their surrogacy journeys. Drawing from my personal experiences and the wisdom of my mentors, I am dedicated to helping intended parents and prospective surrogates navigate the complexities of surrogacy with confidence, clarity, and peace of mind.
Breastfeeding: A Journey of Bonding and Empowerment
My breastfeeding journey also began over a decade ago with my first child, and it ignited a deep passion within me to support and educate other parents on their breastfeeding journeys. With a background in healthcare and a specialization in the mother-baby unit, I furthered my expertise by becoming an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC). Through Mentoring Our Moments, I strive to create a nurturing and supportive environment where parents can confidently navigate the joys and challenges of breastfeeding. Drawing from my personal experiences and professional expertise, I offer evidence-based care, personalized solutions, and unwavering support to families seeking assistance with breastfeeding.
Nursing: A Journey of Compassion and Lifelong Learning
My journey in nursing began as a medical assistant, where I first started mentoring, and quickly realized my desire for further education and growth. The decision to pursue a BSN program at a wonderful university became the cornerstone of my professional development. While juggling the demands of academics and motherhood, I not only excelled in my studies but also initiated the first student-led mentor program at my campus, emphasizing my commitment to fostering support and mentorship within the nursing community. Graduating with honors from the BSN program and a perfect 4.0 GPA from the master’s programs, I delved into various clinical experiences, ultimately excelling as an OB educator and Quality Management specialist. As a nurse career coach, I am uniquely equipped to provide guidance, support, and mentorship to nurses at all stages of their careers.
Life has taken me on remarkable journeys through nursing, surrogacy, and breastfeeding, and these experiences have shaped me into a dedicated and compassionate coach. My commitment to lifelong learning and my passion for empowering others allow me to provide guidance, support, and mentorship to individuals at different stages of their lives. As a nurse career coach, surrogacy mentor, and lactation consultant, I am honored to be a part of the transformative journeys of countless individuals and families, and I am excited to continue making a positive impact in their lives.
