"Ysha has my highest respect for the important work she is doing in empowering women through childbearing and mothering. This engenders much needed culture in holistic community and professional care for women.
Mainstream health services should take note of what Ysha, her colleagues and students are doing for women. There is a lot of knowledge and wisdom here."
