Spotlight on Catherine Rose-Bloom


Hot Wombs & Cool Minds feature shines a light on Catherine Rose-Bloom, a radiant doula based in Hemel Hempstead, UK, and her story of supporting women through birth and postpartum.



We asked Catherine Rose-Bloom six soulful questions for this Hot Wombs & Cool Minds September spotlight — here are her inspiring answers.


1. What inspired you to become a doula?

“To witness the glorious power women hold! I wanted to help protect and hold space for that incredible transition because it deserves to be seen and revered.”


2. What’s one birth or postpartum moment that’s stayed with you?

Catherine's own birth experience remains one of her most powerful memories, shaping her practice with depth and empathy. “There are so many facets to it. It was a huge growth moment for me as a woman and as a mother.”


3. What’s a myth about birth or postpartum you wish more people would challenge?

“That birth is linear and can be categorised on a spectrum from easy to hard. It’s not, it’s so much more complex and beautiful than that.”


4. What’s always in your doula bag (or your virtual doula toolkit)?

  • Snacks

  • Essential oils

  • Candles

  • Music

  • A notebook


5. How do you rest and reset between clients?

Currently working full-time, Catherine treasures the ability to "fully hold each birth as its own sacred container." This balance keeps her "presence intentional and grounded."


6. Being a doula is....

“A complete honour.”

Product Spotlight: TallChic Naturals Mafura Sana Range

Please note: I’m not paid to feature these products, nor do I have any affiliation. I simply believe they’re worth sharing.

Body Butter Time!

To complement this month’s Hot Wombs & Cool Minds Catherine Rose-Bloom feature, we also highlight TallChic Naturals’ Mafura Sana range - a beautiful example of gentle, pregnancy-safe care.


TallChic Naturals are serving up skin love with the nourishing power of Mafura Body Butter, think rich, silky goodness packed with essential fatty acids, vitamins, and antioxidants. Mafura is a total multitasker: it hydrates deep, calms irritation, and helps your skin stay supple while it’s stretching, shifting, and doing the most. It’s safe for external use during pregnancy (though always check in with your doctor first).






We’re especially obsessed with their Mafura Sana range. Fragrance-free (so zero risk of overpowering your senses or irritating sensitive skin), it’s a dream for pregnancy and breastfeeding. Mafura’s natural blend of oleic, linoleic, and palmitic acids feeds your skin on a cellular level, while its anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties help keep everything smooth, soothed, and glowing. Basically, it’s skin TLC in a jar - and your body will thank you for it.
