Hello
My name is Shandy Cortes. I love to serve women in Central Texas who desire to take responsibility over their birth and align their will with God's.
Witnessing the power and beauty of a woman fulfilling the measure of her creation as she transitions into motherhood is one of my greatest joys!
My Why
After a birth, women often tell me "I couldn't have done this without you." And while I don't think that's entirely true--women are stronger than they know--it does bring me a lot of joy to know that I was able to impact their birth in such a way that my role was vital to the outcome. I wasn't there just to be there. I served a purpose and I served them.
My own homebirth and my incredible doula are what led me to do this work. I had such a sacred and beautiful birth and I want EVERY woman to have a joyful experience as well.
My Beliefs
It's important that your birth team shares your values. Here are a few of mine!
01
Undisturbed
Birth works best when left alone. Yes, complications can arise. However, God created the perfect design for birth and it works most of the time *if* undisturbed.
02
Spiritual
Birth is a physiological process, a physical feat and a mental game. Above all else, it is spiritual test to align our will with the Father’s and reach our potential as His Spirit Daughters.
03
Informed
To fully surrender to God’s will, a mother must be knowledgeable of all her options by seeking guidance from the Spirit and increasing wisdom through trusted sources.
04
Trust & Faith
A woman should trust the Lord to lead her through each step and only invite people into her birth space who will do the same.
Fear creates tension in the body and disturbs the natural flow of birth. Faithful and purposeful surrender empowers women to enable the atoning power of Christ.
