sally golightly – the family doula

---

I am Sally, a Doula, Mentor and an experienced Circle Facilitator living and working in Yorkshire.

I am passionate about creating safe spaces where people feel witnessed and held to navigate life’s transitions from birth to grief and loss, as well as the everyday challenges that life inevitably brings. I have worked in social welfare for over 20 years and am an experienced Antenatal teacher, assessor and mentor. I hold a variety of creative, educational and discussion based circles; from creative art journaling, Red Tent Doula training, moon circles to death cafe. I am proud to be a member of the Maternal Journal Advisory Group and a facilitator with Red Tent Doulas.

In 2020 I founded Creating Circles in order to support others in holding their own circles. This highly popular course provides people with the skills and confidence to facilitate circles and groups of their own. Creating Circles is ideal for those who have a pull towards holding circles, as well as those who are currently holding space and would like to deepen their practice. The course combines self-led study, with online zoom sessions, practice sessions and theory, making it perfect for busy lives. Our next intake is in Autumn 2022, further information can be found here.

I am a mother, step mum and granny. I enjoy running (a lot) and being in wild and remote places.
