We were lucky to catch up with Iman Boykin recently and have shared our conversation below.
Iman, appreciate you joining us today. Is there a heartwarming story from your career that you look back on?
In a cozy, dimly lit room, a pregnant woman sat in the warm embrace of an inflatable pool, surrounded by flickering candlelight. The air was filled with the sweet scent of incense and sage, creating a tranquil atmosphere for the miracle about to unfold. As a sacred birth keeper, I stood by her side, my presence a calm reassurance in this intimate moment. At this moment, I experienced an activation, and I knew I was destined to further expand in the space of birth work.
The gentle notes of meditation music played softly in the background, soothing both the mother and all those present. With each breath, the mother embraced the waves of labor, guided by a deep connection to her body and the life within her. The love and power within her resonated throughout the room, intertwining with the supportive energy of the father and I.
In a testament to trust and courage, the mother birthed her baby boy with grace and strength. As the waters cradled her, she brought forth new life into the world, a healthy and beautiful addition to their family. This birth was a celebration of the innate wisdom of a woman’s body, birthing without fear but with a deep knowing of her own strength and capability. It was a moment of pure magic, where love, faith, and the miracle of life converged in a symphony of new beginnings.
Iman, before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?
