MYA is born from my own reflections of motherhood, birth, and the moments that have shaped my sense of purpose. 

I’m Lindsay, and would love to share with you a little about why this work feels so meaningful to me. 

I grew up between England and the US, formed by a life rich in community, creativity, and care. My biggest support and champion was my dear Mum, Carole, a prolific homeopath whose work centred on active listening, honouring the body’s wisdom, and supporting her patients through healing and change. Among a million other talents, she was also a fabulous home cook who threw the best dinner parties! Her influence continues to guide everything I do.

Like many, my path into birth work and women’s care is a personal one. In 2012 and 2015, I had two empowering home births, followed in 2024 by the unexpected and transformative loss of my spirit baby, Sonny. His passing deepened my understanding of the birth and death portal, and showed me just how important compassionate, steady support can be for both mother and family. Working with a pregnancy-loss doula during that time of grief allowed me to feel truly held and heard, and it ultimately led me to train as a doula myself.

Alongside these personal experiences, I worked in both the UK and US creating and managing events, building networks, and cultivating meaningful communities. From music and art festivals to fashion and wellness fairs, I’ve loved being part of it all. With MYA, I bring these worlds together, combining personal care with mindful connection to create nurturing spaces where women can gather, connect, and feel supported.

After nearly a decade in Nashville, Tennessee as a (mostly) stay-at-home mother of two, I’ve returned to the UK and am now based in West Yorkshire. This collective was created from a belief that we are not meant to move through life’s bigger transitions alone. At its heart, it’s about bringing people together and creating safe, welcoming spaces where women can feel supported, understood, and part of a wider community. 

Everything I offer through MYA, from doula support to movement and wellness, is rooted in listening, presence, and trust. Here, you are supported, nourished, and seen.
