So grateful to have attended the Gina, MS, & Roxanne, CNM workshop 💜✨

Always learning, growing, and finding new ways to better support the families I serve. I’m so thankful for the knowledge, connection, and inspiration from this experience and for the beautiful community that comes with it.

Feeling refreshed, inspired, and excited to bring what I learned into my work. 💜

You can Google birth.
You can ask ChatGPT about birth.
You can scroll TikTok for six hours about birth. 😂

But there comes a point where information isn't the same thing as preparation.

You can read about counterpressure, but have you practiced it with your partner?

You can learn about different birth options, but have you talked through what matters to you if things don't go according to plan?

You can save a hundred birth videos, but have you had someone answer your questions in real time without making you feel silly for asking?

And you can join all the pregnancy Facebook groups, but have you actually met the people who might become your village?

That’s the thing about childbirth education. It isn't just about giving you more information. It's about turning information into confidence.

✨It's practicing together.
✨It's asking questions.
✨It's figuring out what support actually looks like.
✨It's learning how to advocate for yourself.
✨It's preparing your partner to be an active part of the experience.
✨And it's sitting in a room with other people who are also thinking, “Wait… are we all a little terrified?” 😂

Because birth doesn't happen on Google.
And you don't have to prepare for it alone.
💜That’s what Birth With Courage is all about.💜

✨ A GATHERING FOR MOTHERS ✨

We’re opening up our space to Jenn White & Luna Ray for a six week gathering created for mothers who are ready to pause, reflect, reconnect, and make a little more room for themselves.

Sundays from 10am to 12pm
October 11
November 1, 8, 15
December 6, 13

Motherhood changes everything, including how you see yourself and what you need. This gathering offers a chance to step outside the constant doing of motherhood and spend some time exploring who you are, what matters to you, and how you want to move through this season.

Together, they’ll explore matrescence, motherhood in our current culture, self compassion, nervous system support, identity, values, and creating a more aligned experience of motherhood.

Each week weaves together song, ritual, prayer, poetry, creative expression, reflection, and connection.

This is not a parenting course. It’s an invitation to come home to yourself, connect with other mothers, and remember that your experience matters too. 💛

✨ Scholarships are available and no one will be turned away for lack of funds.

This is an independently facilitated community offering hosted at Homegrown Families.

✨ Things We’re Normalizing at Homegrown Families✨

Changing your mind about what kind of support you need. 💙💜

Maybe you thought you’d be fine on your own. Maybe you thought you’d want lots of visitors. Maybe you thought you needed advice but what you really needed was someone to listen.

Your support needs can change. And that’s okay. 💛

There’s no prize for struggling alone. You’re allowed to ask for more help, different help, or simply a safe place to say, “I’m not sure I’m okay.”

That’s why we created Postpartum Revival a 4-week space to connect, process, and feel less alone.

💜 Thursdays | 10–11 AM
✨ Oct. 8, 15, 22 & 29
✨ Nov. 3, 10, 17 & 24

Your village can grow and change with you. 💙💜🌱

👶 A FEW THINGS NO ONE TELLS YOU ABOUT NEWBORNS…

They make WEIRD noises in their sleep. 😳
They want to be held. A lot. 🤍
They eat constantly.
Their schedule is… questionable. 😂
And sometimes you’ll stare at them and think: “Okay, but what do I do now?”

That’s exactly why we created Newborn Care With Courage. ✨

Less overwhelm.
More understanding.
More confidence for you + your partner.

Because newborns don’t come with instructions… but you don’t have to figure it all out alone.

📅 September 15 | 5pm to 8pm
📅 October 20 | 5pm to 8pm

Because knowing what’s normal changes everything. 🌿

✨Birth preparation isn't about predicting exactly how your birth will happen.✨

It's about building the knowledge, confidence, communication skills, and tools to navigate whatever your birth brings.

Because sometimes the most important thing you can bring into the birth room isn't a perfect birth plan.

It's knowing your options.

💜Birth With Courage is designed to help you and your partner feel more prepared for birth not because we can promise you'll get the birth you imagined, but because you'll have tools for the unexpected.

✨ October Dates Now Enrolling
✨ Multiple class formats available
✨ Same curriculum, different scheduling options

Ready to feel more prepared?

✨No Country for Mothers is a documentary investigation into the lies used throughout history to distract and divide American mothers.

The film opens on a simple truth: motherhood in America is impossible by design. 💔Work ends at 6, but school pickup is at 3.
💔Child care costs more than a paycheck.
💔Some moms are back at work two weeks after giving birth.

Moms aren't broken. The system is.

Please join us on October 13th for a FREE screening of No Country for Mothers, presented by Moms First. The event is from 6-9pm and will include snacks, non-alcoholic drinks and discussion.

We'll be hosting with Jenn White, a local coach who works with moms. She helps mothers detangle from the impossible expectations mothers face socially and culturally, and helps them identify who they are as moms, how they want to show up for their children and ways in which they can create more ease, joy and connection in their journey. Together we will provide a safe place for moms to connect, discuss and think about (even small!) ways to take action.

We hope you will be able to join us! Space is limited, so please RSVP to save your spot for what should be a very lively discussion! Follow this link to RSVP: https://www.mobilize.us/momsfirst/event/999692/

The film is a call to move past manufactured divides and build an American motherhood that actually works, with the child care, paid leave, and real support parents have been promised and denied for decades.
