There’s a beautiful story behind this photo. The first 60 seconds of me giving life in the flesh - unassisted.
This is homebirth.
This is freebirth.
This is sovereign autonomy.
This is trust.
This is what F*CK THE SYSTEM looks like.
This is freedom. Take back your power!
I love women who have character, the ones that are sassy in an endearing manner, who are confident in themselves, whose style reflects their personality, the ones that are truly the main characters in their lives and genuinely maximize each moment.

It’s precisely three (3) years today since I created the Black Fetus Illustration, and it’s been an enriching journey. I want to thank the Almighty God for his wisdom, creativity, and courage in putting this work together against all odds.
In these three years, I have created more illustrations, partnered with organizations, and travelled to different countries to speak about my passion, which can only be God, sheer hard work, and the support system.
My work is beyond myself, as I put every other person before me. Combining art and medicine for advocacy is a beautiful feeling, and I will do it repeatedly! And thank you to those who believe in me!
Lastly, keep bringing in all the illustrations deals! That’s how you support the journey! 😀

Pregnancy and birth are some of the only times we, as adult women, let other people tell us what we are “allowed” + “not allowed” to do with our own bodies.
I want to remind you of your power + your autonomy.
YOU are the one hiring your provider.
It’s time that we change our language around birth to reflect the legal + ethical reality that it is YOU who chooses to allow the provider to do something—not the other way around.
