Brave New Birth Is an innovative new book just released by Andrea Olson. In collaboration with Jaydee Azavari, this book is sure to change the world of empowered Birth! Whether you want practical guidance for an unassisted birth or simply want to deepen your understanding of natural birth in general, this book is the how-to manual you've been waiting for.

After the death of her 13 year old daughter, Liana Joy, to cancer, Kristie Ihde didn't know how she would breathe again, much less actually live.
"I heard Liana’s voice and felt her enormous presence. I’ve come to realize that she gave me instructions when she said, Mama, there's just so much JOY!”
As Kristie continues to surf waves of grief that ebb and flow - that yes, sometimes take her under - Liana continually invites us to FOLLOW JOY!
It's through following the felt experiences of joy that we will swim in the depths of grief's waters, and not only find my breath, but also receive the sacred treasures that lie in the deep.
Experience retreats and 1:1 coaching from Kristie, you will learn skills and heal your heart in ways you could only begin to imagine.
