Maura Winkler founded Fika Midwifery in Buffalo NY,  in 2017 and is now the Director of Midwifery at The Coit House, the only midwifery-led, CABC-accredited birth center in New York State. 

 

Originally from Buffalo, New York,  Maura Winkler moved to Chicago to pursue a medical degree. She quickly discovered that the medical model of care did not match her personal values and philosophies. 

 

Maura is a certified nurse midwife who believes strongly in the midwifery model of care–namely that pregnant and birthing people and their healthcare team are shared decision-makers. As a feminist midwife, she is a strong proponent that her clients are experts in their own bodies. 

 

In this episode Maura shares: 

Why she hired Lisa in 2017 during a pivotal moment in her business-building journey from doula to midwifery practice How her path wasn’t what she thought it would be, but she kept connected to her clientele, instead of her naysayers How she built her holistic healthcare practice and birthing center in a historic house in Buffalo NY How her brand has grown over time to reflect her personal philosophies of what healthcare in America should be, and embody her clients’ personal values
