About Me

In 1990, my mother skipped my wedding reception to attend a training from an obscure man named Richard Bandler to learn some new alternative to therapy. I didn’t fully understand her studies, but I could see its healing touch on our relationship.

As I entered the world of midwifery, I would call my mother and ask her what ideas she had to help me support the mamas I was working with. Whether the mama was struggling to relax or needed to release a past heartache, my mother always had an answer — an answer that worked.

The techniques she shared were easy to implement and gave remarkable results. Since 2020, I have been training in NLP, Hypnosis and Time Line Therapy ® techniques. I am pursuing my Master Trainer Certification and will have my first birth workers training ready to launch this summer.

I believe that as midwives and birth workers we are in a unique position to not only welcome babies, but also to mentor women into motherhood. So now, I am writing trainings for birth workers to implement the skills my mother inspired in me decades ago. I am Roxanna (Maurer) McEwen and have been serving mothers in birth in Utah since 1995.  I recently moved to the beautiful PNW in WA state where I now spend my days with my husband and writing.
