Would you like to gather women and lead something meaningful,
but don’t know where to start?

Would you like to gather women and lead something meaningful, but don’t know where to start?

Women have been gathering in circle and sharing wisdom for hundreds of years.

We gather to mark life transitions. We gather to celebrate and to grieve. We gather to create a lineage of wisdom that our children will inherit.

Why choose to lead a MotherBlessing instead of a baby shower?

A MotherBlessing is a gathering of women that circle around a pregnant mama to honor the profound journey of becoming a mother.

As a culture, we are used to marking the transition to motherhood with a baby shower. A MotherBlessing takes this tradition deeper and witnesses the more unseen journey- the passage from maiden to mother.

In this class, you will learn the elements of facilitating ceremonial spaces and how to plan and lead a MotherBlessing for a pregnant mama in your life.
