I have personally known Julie for 14 years and can honestly say I have never met anyone like her; in the most unique and remarkable way, she is cut from a different mold than most. When it comes to knowledge of health and holistic best practices, Julie models an attitude of thoroughness, diligent research, and evidence-based information in everything she has ever imparted to me and every woman I know that has had the blessing and fortune to have come in contact with her. She is a true advocate for women, and for all that are in need of care and support. Her experience in birth and postpartum runs the gamut of just about every scenario, and her strength in knowing how to support women is evident in every conversation and interaction you have with her. I can honestly say I had not truly seen the epitome of hospitality in action until I was on the receiving end of her love and support of my self, my family and my children. When I was post-partum, or me or my children had needs, Julie was the first to show up at my doorstep, bearing goods and gifts, as well as physical, emotional and mental support ( you will not have a sink-full of dishes or an unswept floor with her about!) . Per her character, hospitable is not strong enough a word. She is hard-working, and will go to the ends of the earth for anyone with the sweat of her brow along with an attitude of love and selflessness. She is an amazing listener, able to read people and situations unlike any other. She is keen and often sees a need and meets it before anyone else in the room had ever even noticed it. She is genuine, honest, discerning, loyal, faithful and enduring. She encourages gently and discerningly, without judgement, and always in love and good humor. Any woman would be fortunate to be in her loving care, and would secure for themselves a successful and empowering birth and postpartum experience.
