Nurture the Spirit. Heal the Heart. Empower the Family.
We provide ancestral-rooted and wellness support for postpartum and NICU families to reconnect with inherited wisdom and healing traditions as they nurture their little ones.
We are currently NOT accepting Postpartum & NICU clients. We will be offering NICU & Postpartum Education in 2026. Are you seeking resources and referrals, look below for more assistance. Herbal & Wellness Offerings are available for purchase.
Hey there!! My name is Misha Whatley Rudolph. I am a postpartum & NICU doula, a former micropreemie mom to a 24-weeker, an AUsome mom 2x, wife and practitioner of wellness. A graduate of Anniston High School and Jacksonville State University.
With over 10 years of social work experience, I’ve seen the real-time barriers families face—emotionally, financially, medically, and spiritually. My work is grounded in ensuring no parent navigates postpartum or NICU life alone.
My journey through the NICU, alongside years walking with individuals and families in vulnerable circumstances , shaped Tribal Cultivation into a space of safety, advocacy, and deep nurturing.
