ZURI SNOW

I’ve always been someone who beats to the dance of my own drum, even as a child. I have a natural tendency of questioning the norm and seeking truth. In 2016, I began learning about the divine feminine path of the priestess while traveling the county in my van. Shortly after, I was formally initiated as a Priestess of the Red Tent, and began facilitating women’s circles and rituals revolved around the sacredness of the womb. A couple of years later, I found myself pregnant and leaning into the mystery of childbirth. After a beautiful home birth, I decided to dive into deeper education around undisturbed birth and got certified as a holistic doula. This helped me prepare for my second birth, where I midwifed myself through an undisturbed, pain-free home birth after just 2.5 hours of labor. After that, I dove further into midwifery  studies and graduated from The Matrona as a certified holistic family advocate and childbirth educator. I have now been attending births for a 2 years and remain a humble student while also claiming my role as community leader and educator. My greatest teachers are the mothers and babies I work with as an assistant midwife and free birth attendant. Second are the wise council of midwifes around me. In addition to my experience in birth, I also have nearly 8 years of ceremonial experiences facilitating group rituals of all kinds, somatic dance experiences, weddings, blessing ways, birthday rituals, retreats, and more.
