Birth Mentorship Program: Embers ~ Birth Tending Mentorships

Women have always been the ones who tend the fire, the ones who remember when others forget, and the ones who stay when things open, break, and become. Birth is calling women home to one another again, igniting a deep connection among those who feel it in their bones—that birth is not just an event, but a sacred ceremony. This ceremony requires those who know how to tend the unseen. If you are here, you already feel that.

Embers is a mentorship space for birthworkers—both new and seasoned—who are ready to deepen into a more rooted, embodied, and relational way of walking this path. This is not a linear program; it is a living, breathing journey of birth mentorship.

The Way We Walk follows the cycles of the body, the earth, and the births we attend, as well as the ones we experience within ourselves. We move through:

- Conception, pregnancy, birth, and postpartum

- The archetypal cycles—maiden, mother, wild woman, crone

- The seasons and the moons

- The thresholds of beginning, ending, and becoming

Teachings are shared through stories, lived experience, and direct practice. We work with:

- Ceremony

- Plant medicines

- Ancestral ways of tending

- The physiology and energetics of birth

- Storykeeping and integration

- The unseen layers that shape how birth is experienced and remembered

This is not fast learning. This is remembering.

THE INVITATION

This path asks for devotion, not perfection—but a willingness. Like birth, once you say yes, you will be changed. You will be held in a strong, steady field of mentorship, where your growth is witnessed, your edges are supported, and your way of serving, whether through doulas training or holistic birth practices, begins to root deeply into something that is truly your own. This is not work you do alone. This is community work. Lineage work. Earth work. A returning.

The 10-Month Birth Mentorship Journey

You don’t have to figure this out alone.

This path is for those just stepping into birth work—who feel the call, but want to be walked with as they find their way through their doulas training.

Over 10 months, you will be supported as you begin attending your first births. Not just in knowledge—but in how to be in the space, embracing a holistic birth approach.

You will be:

- Supported in finding your own rhythm, voice, and way of holding

- Guided through the full continuum—from preconception to postpartum

- Held as you navigate the unknowns, questions, and real-time experiences of your first births

- Able to reach out before, during, and after births for grounded support

This is mentorship in real life. Not separate from the work—but walking alongside you as it unfolds.

The Seasonal Path

A return to rhythm.

This path moves with the cycles of the year—because birth does too. In our journey through the seasons, we navigate descent and emergence, exploring the layers that build over time in this holistic birth mentorship.

This is a space to:

- Tend your own fire so it does not burn out.

- Work in relationship with plant allies that support you in showing up for birth.

- Deepen your practice of spiritual hygiene—what you carry, what you release, how you clear.

- Bring ceremonial awareness to the field of birth.

- Integrate and process the stories you hold from the women you’ve witnessed.

This is where your experience is not just carried… it is alchemized.

Slow medicine. Deep medicine.

The kind that strengthens your backbone, allowing you to continue this doulas training in a sustainable, honest way.

Testimonials

A woman enjoys reading a book and sipping tea by a sunny window.

"I realized I wanted to learn in the old way. So while I studied and certified with Doula Canada, I also engaged in a 2-year apprenticeship with Treeka, focusing on birth mentorship.

We sat down and drew it into art. How could it look if we were radically honest? How could it look if we followed our hearts? How could it be so deeply in integrity that everyone involved was nourished and fed by the work we were doing? After all, this is how traditional medicines have been passed down. This is the medicine of the sacred feminine – the medicine of the dark hours of creation.

Through this process, we formed our loving cohort and made long-term commitments. I am deeply in awe of my apprenticeship, unraveling, and embracing the journey of doulas training. I am learning how to hold space in a way that is much bigger and bolder than I have before – sitting at the gate of holistic birth." ~ Erin
