Marpessa Allen is a Colorado native and a mother of four. Her unique gifting in community activism and policy inform her true calling as a Doula. She joined Sacred Seeds Doula Collective because it is a blessing to journey through life with other committed birth workers. She has discovered how profound the strength of a people are when we authentically show up for one another.

Her background is a tapestry of motherhood, community organizing, and family policy initiatives. What truly makes her heart sing is ushering in a new chapter of a mother’s life. It’s her belief that we all have the same thing in common within the first minute of being born. We learned to take our first breath. She loves smiling, dreaming and thriving.
