Some kind words about my book
“Every time I read it I feel relaxed. There is something about the lilting voice in your writing that soothes. And the way you distill all the STUFF we know about birth and that we yearn to teach mums down into these simple nuggets is just genius.”

"I was gifted these beautiful mindfulness cards for pregnancy and birth by my lovely friend @gowiththeflowdoula. The cards are absolutely gorgeous and great quality. Very lush!"

”I love these mindfulness cards. I use them with my doula clients. Last week one of my clients was really excited to show me her new cards and how fab they were. Little did she know I’m a massive fan of them already! A lovely and insightful way to explore emotions and ideas in pregnancy. ”

"When I received Paula's cards & book I was blown away by how gorgeous, well made & thoughtful they were. The book is completely on point & such a refreshing change to the usual birth affirmations & such that are available. It is extremely well laid & thought out. The messages are perfectly written & so apt.
I would recommend all birthing people have a set of these cards & as a birth keeper they will be invaluable to my work with clients & think anyone working in birth should have a set.
Honestly they are just lovely & I am so impressed them, I especially like the notes pages at the back to jot down anything that pops up from using the cards!
Well done Paula they are amazing"

"The cards/book combo is a lovely little package that nudges people towards introspection and to find out what their needs are, even if they hadn’t even noticed that some needs have not been met"

"Thank you so much Paula for sending me these beautiful Go With The Flow cards, little mindfulness prompts for pregnancy and birth, they are really lovely. Highly recommended addition to anyone's doula bag or antenatal class kit."

” I have been using my mindfulness cards alongside Paula’s holistic birth classes in preparation for the recent birth of my daughter. Both the classes and cards have been perfect in helping me to focus on the birth when I was easily distracted by my busy life, leaving me feeling calm and in control. This led to the most amazing and empowering homebirth of my daughter 2 weeks ago. I will definitely continue to use the cards as I journey into becoming a mother of two ”
