vernacular_life | I'm pretty open to 'crunchiness', but still.......

I'm researching hypnobirthing instructors, and, before sending them an email, Googling the ones in my area.

Check out this bio. She sounds wayyyy too wacky for me. And I'm into the crunchy-yoga scene

I'm leaning towards the woman who's an associate professor at Hopkins's School of Public Health....or the yoga instructor....
