A self-paced & holistic course for pregnant women
Preparing for Motherhood
Birth welcomes a mother
This on-demand course guides you through pregnancy, birth, feeding, sleep, and the early postpartum days with grounded education, practical tools, and support for trusting yourself as a mother.
Helping you make decisions from clarity instead of fear.
Why this course exists
Preparing For Motherhood - Less Stuff, More Instinctual Parenting
Most prenatal education focuses on getting through birth.
This course focuses on preparing you for the early days, where decisions come fast and shape everything that follows.
This course gives you what traditional prenatal classes miss:
how your body actually works in labor
how birth impacts feeding, bonding, sleep, and development
how to support your nervous system now and in motherhood
how bonding and attachment begin and why its foundational for the rest
what postpartum really can look like- blissful, supported, connected
This isn’t about being perfect.
It’s about feeling prepared, steady, and confident in your choices.
Because your choices shape everything that follows.
Root into confidence not fear
Feel steady and prepared as you step into motherhood.
You’ll learn what early motherhood asks of you, so your decisions feel clear instead of overwhelming.
Connection over checklists
You’ll learn how to stay connected to your baby and yourself in real time, across changing situations, environments, and stages.
Trust your inner wisdom
You’ll strengthen your ability to make decisions from your own values and desire.
When you know what matters to you, choices feel easier and more natural.
Emotional wellbeing at the core
We center maternal wellbeing because your presence creates safety.
You’ll learn how regulation, rest, and support shape both you and your baby.
Build your village
Preparation includes people. This course supports you in thinking through the support you’ll want and need around you before your baby arrives.
Who is this Course For
This course is designed for women who want to feel prepared, confident, and calm as a mother
It’s especially for mothers who:
want to make decisions from trust instead of fear
feel drawn to connection-based, ancestrally informed care
know that there is an alternative to rigid rules and one-size-fits-all advice
want to feel steady in decisions
Why prepare now?
After birth, decisions come quickly, often when you’re tired, vulnerable, and flooded with opinions of others
Preparing now helps you:
stay present in the early days
recognize what’s normal
feel confident responding to your baby
reduce anxiety and overwhelm
trust yourself
When questions come up in the middle of the night, you’ll already have a reference point to decide from.
