Birth Doula
BIO
Aaliyah is a queer, Black, nonbinary person who is a chef, herbalist, full-spectrum doula, educator, and reproductive justice advocate. They center their work around reconnecting to ancestral knowledge of wellbeing, supporting folx in their journeys of healing, and decolonizing their minds, bodies, and spirits. They currently work with queer, trans, and BIPOC folx online and in Nashville and the surrounding areas. They identify as a nerd and a “word-weaving witchy wood nymph” who spends most of their time playing with yarn or out in nature, and basically lives in their kitchen being yelled at by their cat.
