Another Beginning

I started seeing patients today…on my own. 

I have been through many beginnings, from deciding to become a nurse, to attending community college for my prerequisites, to moving to a new city for nursing school, to deciding to become a midwife, to being a student midwife, to working as a nurse, and now, beginning my new practice. 

I am thanking all my life midwives as I transition…my mother, my teachers, my mentors, my patients. 

I hope to use this space as my professional life grows to share my journey and my own and others’ analyses and thoughts about the world of women’s health.
