  • Building a Sustainable Birth Centre Partnership with Petra Prostrednik and Desiree LaFave
    Nov 6 2024

    In this heartfelt episode, we dive into the enduring partnership of Desiree LeFave and Petra Prostrednik, the co-founders of Bella Vie Gentle Birth Center, as they reflect on 17 years of working together to create and nurture their dream of a peaceful, natural birth center.

    Through candid conversation, Desiree and Petra share the secrets to making their midwifery partnership not only last but thrive. From navigating the challenges of building a birth center to maintaining a deep, trusting professional relationship, they explore what has kept their collaboration strong over nearly two decades.

    Petra’s journey to midwifery began with her own transformative birth experiences, while Desiree’s path was sparked by the powerful experience of birthing her first child at home. Together, they laid the foundation for Bella Vie in 2007, creating a space that has supported hundreds of families in the serene beauty of Oregon’s countryside.

    If you’ve ever wondered how long-lasting professional partnerships succeed, this episode offers a blueprint from two women who have made it work with love, respect, and shared vision for nearly two decades.
