CO-CREATE YOUR PODCAST SERIES WITHIN
THE STORY WOMB
THE STORY WOMB
For wise, visionary women leaders, THE STORY WOMB is a brave space to explore and hone life defining personal stories and insights that guide your leadership.
We will co-create artful, beautifully produced episodes that humanize your potent work being done through the wild of this era.
As your Media Midwife, I am here to be fascinated by your path, to ask the questions that open you to new details and discoveries of the same story you’ve told over and over again.
Within THE STORY WOMB you will be supported to deepen into your transformational stories and wisdom which clarifies and roots the core of your WHO + WHY + WHAT. From this discovery process, a podcast series production plan will emerge.
Then, we will meticulously record based on the plan we co-create.
Once recordings are complete, I, your Media Midwife, will carefully weave these elements together with original music composition + sound design derived from relevant sounds, instruments and genres to bring your visionary leadership alive.
Each episode makes up an immersive, intimate podcast series that depicts who you are and shares the YOU behind your great work.
Together, and with your brand + marketing teams or my highly recommended collaborators, I will strategize your launch and support you every step of the way through to the final episode drop.
The work we co-create within THE STORY WOMB has the power to serve as a catalyst for your book, your talk, your one woman show, your TV series or film, and all with deeply personal, resilient and inspired medicine stories at the center.
TOGETHER WE WILL
Discover + workshop personal, transformational stories that reveal the depth, character and talent behind your leadership.
Hone universal teachings of wisdom learned from lived experiences.
Develop + co-create a compelling podcast series that guides + humanizes your purposeful work.

MM STORY
______________
In the midst of 2021, overwhelmed, I went on a long hike into the forest, deeply listening for how to serve with my passions and skills through this era, beyond my own creative investigations and expressions.
While sitting on a rock to rest, I observed a nest of baby birds chirping as their mama came back to feed her hungry young. So basic and true.
It was a miraculous, mundane moment of tending that moved me to an idea. I saw myself in that mother bird and felt human storytelling is as basic as the nourishment that sustains us.
The next day, I received a call from the chairman of my department at Southern Oregon University, where I teach the next generation of media makers. He asked if I’d like to create my dream college course.
ALIVE: YOUR VOICE, THIS MOMENT became an ecosystem of stories to test my idea, inspiring authentic connection and wisdom sharing among my students.
We honed in on one transformational story from their lives with lessons applied to meet this moment.
From there, I guided each student to produce a sound-rich, creative podcast expression of their story.
It was a hit in the department and in the lives of my students, and this experience gave me another idea.
Taking the work a step further, I believe wise, visionary women leaders like YOU are the collaborative tending force in the marketplace.
I was inspired to create a podcast series offering for YOU, centering deeply personal, wisdom stories from your life, illuminated with sound and music to serve as connective tissue with your customers, clients, colleagues and self.
And so, my work as a Media Midwife was born.
