Bringing new or reviving old ways all has the painful work of birthing. The excitement is followed by pain, deeper and intense pain, discouragement, nearly giving up and then elation as emergence becomes part of life. Doulas and midwives have deep knowledge of how to guide these stages...I wonder if your group(s) might benefit from such an individual to help with the natural, but uncomfortsble parts of birthing a vision.

I don't know that a doula or midwife is the answer so much as there are people in every community who fail to understand the world doesn't revolve around their perspective. 😏
