💜 Surrogacy is an incredible journey—but that doesn’t mean you have to navigate every part of it alone.

After experiencing surrogacy from the inside, I know firsthand that there are so many emotions, decisions, transitions, and “Is this normal?” moments that come with being a surrogate.

And sometimes, you need someone who understands the journey—not as an agency employee, not as a medical professional, and not as someone simply reading from a handbook—but as someone who has actually walked this road.

That’s why I created Lotus Living. 🌿

✨ Boutique coaching for surrogates who want support beyond the logistics of their journey.

My coaching is designed to provide a safe, encouraging space to work through things like:

💜 Preparing emotionally for your journey
💜 Setting healthy boundaries with your support system
💜 Navigating the emotional ups and downs of pregnancy
💜 Communicating through challenging moments
💜 Preparing for the transition after delivery
💜 Processing the changes that can come with becoming a surrogate
💜 Reconnecting with you throughout the journey
💜 Creating a thoughtful plan for your postpartum transition
💜 Simply having someone in your corner who gets it
💜 Reset retreats and travel experiences

I’m not here to replace your agency, medical team, or mental health professionals. I’m here to offer an additional layer of personalized support, encouragement, and accountability.

And this isn’t something I created from a textbook.

In addition to being a Travel Agent, I’m a 3-time gestational surrogate, and my experiences taught me just how valuable intentional support can be throughout this journey.

🌸 Lotus Living is about helping you bloom through every season of your surrogacy journey—not just get through it.

If you’re currently a surrogate, preparing for your first journey, considering becoming a surrogate, or navigating life after your journey, I’d love to connect.

Feel free to DM me the word “LOTUS” and I’ll send you more information about what coaching looks like or if you read all this and need a vacation dm me the word “travel” 💜

💜 You’re doing something extraordinary.
You deserve support that feels extraordinary, too.
