About

In this episode I'm sharing my own spiritual experience of my rite of passage from Maiden to Mother during my first pregnancy and birth. I have created a program to guide women through profound and deep Maiden to Mother rite of passage. The program is open now>>therisecollective.org/passage My first pregnancy & birth was a beautiful, challenging, and transformative rite of passage & spiritual experience. At times I felt frustrated + alone searching for advice. But not just any run-of-the-mill unsolicited advice or projections people so freely give to pregnant women….ick.  So I became my own Wise Woman teacher. I recorded everything that I learned as a doula, mother, & Wise Woman. I discerned what distortions I wanted to leave behind from my indoctrination and conditioning. I created my new identity as a mother and grieved the death of my maiden identity. I chose a home birth (you can read about it here) and requested the support that I wanted, how I wanted it. I approached my pregnancy of birth as a spiritual rite of passage vision quest experience. I made hundreds of tangible prayers over 9 months, gathered my supporters, and felt connected with the spirit of my baby. If you’re a pregnant mama or you know a pregnant mama, this might be for you…or your friend (share with her!) I created a Maiden to Mother class for pregnant women approaching pregnancy & birth as a spiritual rite of passage. You can join the wait list here (I offer Maiden to Mother every 3 months)
