Meet Me, Sadie
I’m Sara BhaduriHauck. I go by Sadie.
I’m a postpartum doula, educator, and Reiki practitioner supporting women and families in Pennsylvania and Maryland through the transition into motherhood.
I’m deeply interested in the work of women reclaiming their voices, agency, and intuition.
Why this work exists
Early motherhood can change a person in ways that are hard to name. This work exists because those experiences matter. They shape a woman’s relationship with herself, her family, and the world in ways that ripple through the rest of her life.
How I approach this work
I come to this work as a doula and an educator. I pay close attention, ask the right questions, and offer grounded guidance when it’s needed. Most of all, I create space for people to talk honestly about what’s scary, hard, or uncertain – without needing to filter themselves or hold it all together.
Mandala Motherhood is intentionally a small practice. I work one-on-one so the support can stay personal, attentive, and responsive to what each person actually needs.
Sessions take place in my studio in Delta, PA, virtually, and occasionally in client’s homes when schedules allow.
