Episode Synopsis

Nicole is a mother, a wife and a daughter of the Earth. Originally from South Africa, she now calls Bristol, England home. Nicole has been on a journey of coming back to her innate feminine wisdom for some years now, a journey which she believes prepared her for the transformational rite of passage that is pregnancy, birth and motherhood. Nicole gave birth to her beautiful son Oakley in November 2023 and knew right from the start that they would be co-sleeping. She was so sure in this knowing that she didn't even buy a crib or next-to-me cot. Despite having a blissful start to their co-sleeping journey, Nicole and Oakley encountered some challenges when he was close to 1 years old. Nicole tuned into her own body - listening to her intuition and honouring both her and Oakley's needs - and decided to make some gentle changes around their sleep which benefitted both her and her son. Despite the way her path unfolded, Nicole is still a huge advocate for co-sleeping and struggles to see how mothers do it any other way, especially in those early days. She believes that co-sleeping is such a natural and beautiful bonding experience between mother and child, one that offers a child a safe space for years to come.Nicole's work is rooted in supporting women to come back home to themselves by reminding them that they are daughters of the Earth. She is known as The Grounded Mama on Instagram. Nicole offers a safe space for women to step into their intuitive power and come back home to the wisdom of their hearts and wombs. She believes that it is from this place of grounded connection that women can tap into their authentic power, as well as into their ability to surrender, trust and lead with love. Nicole is a holistic birth & postpartum doula, walking alongside women as they navigate the journey of pregnancy, birth and motherhood. She also holds sacred women's circles and facilitates embodied yoga and pregnancy yoga. Her greatest act of service, however, is being the river banks which hold her son's flowing [email protected] me on instagram @rewilding.mamas and all of my offerings on my website⁠⁠ ⁠www.rewildingmamas.co.ukYou can support this podcast by donating ⁠HERETo book a FREE discovery call for my Doula services click hereTo interview on the show, or to join my Mother’s Circle click⁠⁠ ⁠here⁠⁠⁠.You can email me [email protected] me on Instagram ⁠@rewilding.mamasPlease leave me a positive reviewDisclaimer:The information and resources provided by me are not intended to constitute or replace medical advice or a Mother’s intuition.
