Our Team

Leah Lemelin

Through her own lived and professional experience rooted in evidence-based practice and service, Leah embodies knowledge, presence and compassion to support Self and others on their journey. She holds space for others to find resource and empowerment on their path, build resiliency, and find their breath and place of ease here and now. She believes that the best teachers, coaches, mentors and doulas point students and clients to rediscover their own inner guidance, finding comfort and nourishment in all circumstances. These principles are the foundation of BEYONDOULA.

Leah is super passionate about developing partnerships and programs in support of both care providers and care seekers at points of change. For over a decade, Leah has been envisioning broad organizations that empower and provide ease for all parts of our experience, especially the inner feminine, which has been imbalanced within modern society. This is big work for all of us, reestablishing well-being and peace from within. Leah works directly with clients, providers and is the visionary and co-founder of BEYONDOULA..
