Orgasmic Birth Team Volunteer

Jessica-Wind Abolafia, BA, Perinatal Birth & Labor LMT, Naples, FL  I was first introduced to Debra Pascalli-Bonaro as one of her students in a DOULA certification class.  I was so inspired by Debra’s deep commitment to birth and maternity education and activism that when an opportunity arose with Orgasmic Birth I knew immediately that I wanted to participate.  My interest in Women’s Health began at an early age as the daughter of truly innovative and feminist parents who believed in informed choices and early education regarding body and health.  I solidified my decision to pursue my degree in Women’s Health after reading Robbie Davis-Floyd’s “Birth as an American Right of Passage” and received my BA in Women’s Studies at Union College.  I currently practice perinatal and birth and labor massage and look forward to completing my DOULA certification.
