Who we are
Kimberly Górskie-Garcia
My name is Kimberly Gorskie Garcia , (she/her) I'm a French mom of three, a baby nurse, and a birth doula or, as I prefer to say, a birthworker.
My values have always been at the center of everything I do. At 17 years old, I founded a nonprofit organization supporting children with cancer and their families. It was my first experience advocating alongside people during some of life's hardest moments, and it taught me that showing up with compassion, persistence, and community can truly change lives.
Since then, my path has always led me toward caregiving. I've worked in a nursing home supporting senior adults, spent nearly a decade as a baby nurse in France caring for newborns and their families in high-acuity hospital units, and after moving to the United States, built my own doula practice.
Although these roles may seem different, they've always been connected by the same purpose: making sure people feel heard, respected, and supported. Whether caring for a newborn, an aging adult, or someone giving birth, I've always believed that everyone deserves compassionate care, informed choices, and someone willing to advocate alongside them.
I've loved Art for as long as I can remember. I studied it throughout my school years in France, and today I use it to introduce conversations about history, social justice, and equity to my children. I believe Art has the power to bring people together, challenge perspectives, and inspire change.
Pílar is the community I've been searching for ,not only as a mother, but also as a birthworker, an activist, and someone who believes we all deserve spaces where we can learn, create, organize, and belong. It brings together everything I care about: art, education, advocacy, and community.
I couldn't picture myself doing anything more meaningful than trying to do my part in making the world a little more just. I hope that one day we'll all be sitting together over a cup of coffee, celebrating stronger communities and brighter futures for our children and families.
If there's one thing you should know about me, it's that I don't give up. I'm stubborn in the best possible way, and I truly believe that when people come together with care, creativity, and determination, meaningful change is possible.
"Because while I fully intend to be that fierce 90-year-old woman who still shows up to protest, I'd much rather carry a sign that says, "Look how far we've come," than one that says, "I still can't believe I'm fighting for the same shit."
Samantha Bossu
I'm Samantha Bossu (she/they) , a fiery empath, lifelong learner, and passionate advocate for equity and justice. As a birthworker and sexual health coach, I center matriarchal values to foster safer, more informed, and more joyful sexual and reproductive experiences from cradle to grave.
For as long as I can remember, I've been passionate about questioning binary thinking and the systems built around it. As a queer, neurodivergent person, I often found myself outside the narrow definition of what was considered "normal." Those experiences shaped my lifelong commitment to creating more equitable access to education, healthcare, and community resources while helping others understand how inclusive, justice-centered practices benefit us all.
I began my studies in Elementary and Special Education, focusing on Project-Based Learning and adaptive teaching practices for students with disabilities. During that time, I witnessed firsthand the overwhelming lack of resources and systemic support available to students, families, and educators. I often found myself working alongside families, helping them navigate systems that were meant to support them but too often fell short.
My own experiences with reproductive trauma and the countless stories shared by others ultimately led me to birthwork. I completed my doula training through Birthing Advocacy Doula Trainings, a Black-owned, queer-led organization rooted in reproductive justice, advocacy, and community care. There, I deepened my understanding of the inequities that disproportionately impact historically marginalized communities and strengthened my commitment to justice-centered care.
As my work evolved, so did my understanding that reproductive justice and sexual wellness are inseparable. Every person deserves access to accurate information, affirming care, bodily autonomy, and the freedom to experience pleasure without shame.
Most recently, I've had the privilege of studying under Tiffany Yelverton, founder of Entice Me. Her pleasure-positive, inclusive approach to sexuality education has profoundly shaped my coaching and strengthened my commitment to helping people cultivate confidence, connection, pleasure, and agency throughout every stage of life.
Today, I bring together birthwork, sexuality education, and reproductive justice to provide trauma-informed, inclusive, and affirming support for people navigating fertility, pregnancy, birth, postpartum, intimacy, sexual wellness, reproductive decision-making, and life's many transitions.
