Meet Beant Devi – new PSN Director
Beant Devi a.k.a. Ekaterina Cupelin is a doctor in Anthropology and a Kundalini Yoga teacher who came to birth-work after the birth of her two children. She has been working as a postnatal doula and training as a birth doula for the past few years. “I believe strongly that carrying and birthing our babies peacefully and in our full power, and that being supported and allowed to live the explosion of love and emotion that starts with birth but continues for months and years after, can make our world a better place,” shares Beant. Originally Bulgarian, for the past 20 years, she has lived – for study, work or research – in the US, Spain, China, the Netherlands, India, Switzerland, and currently, France.
Beant Devi has management experience in the corporate sector and has worked and volunteered in the non-profit world as a consultant, fundraiser, and event organizer for over 15 years.
“It is an honour and great joy to have started working as a as Managing Director at the Postnatal Support Network in the beginning of September, and to have joined such a powerful team and network of committed and inspiring people. PSN’s mission to promote postnatal health and support for the newborn mother aligns with and strengthens my personal life mission to serve newborn families, and I commit to serve the Network to the best of my abilities.”
