Our 
Story

Madeleine and Alyssa’s friendship began in high school, where they spent their early years making memories in classrooms and on the volleyball court. As life naturally carried them onto different paths—college, moving, marriage—their friendship endured, though from a distance.

Time, however, has a remarkable way of bringing people back together when they need one another most. What began as a season of reconnection and rebuilding their friendship soon revealed a deeper shared experience: both women were quietly walking through their own infertility journeys.

As they navigated this tender season, Madeleine and Alyssa began working together to support and heal their bodies through natural, clean, and intentional practices. They encouraged one another through discouraging moments, shared research and resources, and walked side by side as they prepared their bodies for the dream of motherhood they both deeply longed for.

Madeleine dove deeply into the physiological approach to healing infertility, which led to a natural conception in 2023 and ultimately a physiological, natural birth in 2024. She openly shared what she had learned with Alyssa—offering guidance, encouragement, and hope. Inspired by her friend’s experience, Alyssa expanded her own research and understanding of conception and birth, while implementing the same holistic lifestyle practices Madeleine had encouraged.

Nearly one year to the day later, Alyssa called Madeleine with joyful news—it was her turn. Their babies were born just one year and five days apart.

These two friends have always found themselves aligned in the seasons of life they walk through, and this shared timing allowed a deep love for pregnancy, birth, and maternal care to grow within them both. Their personal journeys, paired with years of shared study and intentional learning, led them to create Woven Within Birth Collective.

Their heart is to foster a nurturing, supportive environment for first-time and seasoned mothers alike—offering an extra layer of care, strength, and compassion as families walk their own unique birth journeys.
