A 3-Month Sacred Space for Birth Workers
Because nobody holds space for the people who hold space for everyone else.
Held: A Space for Birth Workers
You hold space for other people's most vulnerable moments.
You show up at 3am. You stay for 30 hours. You carry the weight of someone else's experience in your body long after you leave.
And right now, this is what your life probably looks like:
You replay decisions at 2am and have nobody to call. You're burning out but feel guilty admitting it because this work is a calling. You have a client pushing your boundaries and you keep letting it slide. You had a difficult birth last month and you're still carrying it. Your partner asks how your day was and you say "fine" because where would you even start. You love this work but something has to give and you're terrified it's going to be you.
Now imagine this:
You have a circle of birth workers who understand without you having to explain. You debrief that difficult case with a midwife who's had 30 years of her own and she says "you did the right thing, here's what I'd consider next time." You finally set the boundary you've been avoiding and you don't feel guilty because someone showed you how. You stop carrying it all alone and for the first time in years, this work feels sustainable again.
That's Held:
A Space for Birth Workers.
This is not a course.
This is not a mastermind.
This is a sacred container.
Held: A Space for Birth Workers is a 3-month space for midwives, doulas, and birth workers to come together, share the parts of this work that aren't rainbows and unicorns, and be held by someone who has been doing this for over 30 years.
I'm Anne Margolis. I've attended over a thousand births. I've had my own emergencies. I've been reported to the state. I've been through lawsuits. I've had clients who didn't pay me after nine months of care. I've cried after births. I've questioned myself. I've burned out.
And I kept going. Because this work is sacred. But it is not easy. And you should not be doing it alone.
WHAT YOU GET
Inside the 3-Month Container (Mid-June through Mid-September):
3 Monthly Group Calls with Anne
Each call opens with breathwork and grounding. Then we hold space. You share what you're carrying. You ask what you need to ask. You hear from other birth workers who understand. I offer my perspective from 30+ years of experience. This is a red tent, not a lecture.
1 Private One-on-One Call with Anne
This is your time. Case review. Business questions. Boundary struggles. Processing a difficult birth. Whatever you need to unpack in a confidential, one-on-one space with someone who has been through it. This call alone is valued at $450 on my website.
Access to My Complete Birth Professional Document Library
Nearly 200 documents I've created over 30 years of practice. Templates, protocols, handouts, research summaries, and resources you can use in your own practice immediately. This library is not available anywhere else.
WHO THIS IS FOR
You're a midwife, doula, or birth worker who loves this work but is carrying more than you can hold alone.
You've had a difficult birth, an emergency, or a case you can't stop replaying and you need to debrief it in a safe, confidential space.
You're burning out. The nights, the on-call schedule, the emotional weight. Something has to give but you don't want it to be the work you love.
You're struggling with boundaries. Clients who push, clients who don't pay, clients who need more than you can give.
You want mentorship from someone who has been in it for 30+ years and isn't going to sugarcoat it.
You need community with people who understand what it's like to hold lives in your hands and then go home and make dinner like nothing happened.
Held: A Space for Birth Workers is for you if:
YOU MIGHT BE THINKING
"I can process this stuff on my own."
You've been trying. How's that going?
If you're still replaying cases at 2am and carrying tension in your body from births that happened months ago, doing it alone isn't working. It's not a weakness to need a space for this. It's the smartest professional decision you can make.
"$777 is a lot right now."
It's $260 a month.
Less than most birth workers lose to a single boundary they didn't hold. Less than the cost of burnout forcing you to take a month off.
And it's a tax-deductible business expense.
The question isn't whether you can afford it. It's whether you can afford to keep going without it.
"I don't have time for another commitment."
Three calls in three months. One private session on your schedule. That's it.
You spend more time than that worrying about the things we'd actually resolve in this container. This isn't adding to your plate. It's the thing that makes everything else on your plate manageable.
WHAT WE TALK ABOUT
The things nobody else creates space for:
Burnout and how to sustain this work without destroying yourself.
Case review. Processing emergencies, difficult births, unexpected outcomes.
Boundaries. Setting them, enforcing them, and not feeling guilty about it.
Running a business nobody taught you how to run. Marketing, pricing, getting paid.
Navigating state laws, licensing restrictions, and hostile providers.
Dealing with lawsuits, bad reviews, and being reported.
Balancing your practice with your marriage, your children, your health.
The emotional toll of holding space for trauma that isn't yours but lives in your body.
Finding your way back to the sacredness of this work when it starts to feel heavy.
$777
for the full 3-month container
You might be thinking: "That's a lot right now."
Let me put it in perspective.
A single one-on-one call with me is $450. You're getting that plus three monthly group calls plus nearly 200 practice documents. That's roughly $260 a month for the only space that exists specifically for what you're going through.
It's a tax-deductible business expense. Payment plans are available. And it costs less than what most birth workers lose to a single client who doesn't pay them.
This isn't another training. You don't need more certifications. You need someone in your corner. That's what this is.
**This is a tax-deductible business expense for birth professionals.
ABOUT ANNE
I'm Anne Margolis, CNM, LM, MSN, BSN, RN. I've been a holistic midwife since 1995. I've attended over a thousand births in homes, birth centers, and hospitals. I've written two #1 international bestselling books. I've been featured on TLC, in the documentary Orgasmic Birth, and The Human Longevity Project.
But none of that matters as much as this: I've been where you are. I know what it feels like to cry after a birth and have nobody to call. I know what it feels like to question whether you made the right decision. I know what it feels like to love this work so deeply that you let it consume you.
This space exists because I needed it once and it didn't exist for me.
You hold space for everyone else.
Let someone hold space for you.
