About Lina

From engineering to birth companionship

I'm Lina Nowak โ€” a doula, health coach, and mother, based in Luxembourg.

Before this, I spent years in engineering and corporate project management. These days I bring that same steadiness to something far more personal: walking alongside women through pregnancy, birth, and the fourth trimester.

My story

Why I do this work

I moved to Luxembourg like so many of the mothers I now support โ€” building a life and a family in a country that wasn't my own, without the village that usually shows up around a new baby. I know what it's like to navigate a system in a language that isn't yours, to feel far from your own mother and sisters when you need them most.

My background is in engineering and corporate project management โ€” a world of plans, timelines, and problem-solving. Birth taught me that the most important plans are the ones that stay flexible, and the best support is steady, present, and genuinely listens.

Founding New Diversity ASBL, a neurodiversity-focused non-profit, shaped how I show up in this work too. Every family is different, every nervous system is different, and good care adapts โ€” it doesn't ask you to fit a mould.

Today I split my time between doula support, 1:1 health coaching, and building spaces โ€” like the Birth Circle โ€” where mothers can be fully themselves.

โ€” Lina
