"Being an artist and a social entrepreneur, I found in my motherhood journey the inspiration to contribute to the higher cause of women's well-being. I created Birth As You Please because I sense the urgency of adding ideas and research to the dialogue around how birth can be more humane and how birthing people all around the world, in many different cultures. can inspire each other to rediscover their life giving capabilities. I grew up in Athens, Greece. I started painting at the age of 23, when I was living in Mexico City. I am now living in the city of La Paz, in Bolivia. The last three years I have been painting pregnancy portraits in my limited time while raising my little three year-old son and working at a women's rights organization. Birth as You Please is my passion. There has always been a deeper need inside me to create something that is meaningful and connected to a deeper cause." - Amancaya Xristina
