Today we are remembering who laboured, birthed, healed, and help families and communities together long before their work was ever named, protected, or respected.
As a fertility doula I want to honour the lineage of Black women who understood the body, the menstrual cycle, pregnancy, birth and healing - often without access to safe care or informed choice.
Our history lives in our wombs.
Our resilience lives in our cycles.
Our healing is an act of remembrance.
This month, we don't just reflect on history - we tend to it.
We rest where our ancestors could not.
We choose car where it was once denied.
We reclaim knowledge that has always belonged to us.
Stay tuned this month as we continue sharing stories, education and holistic practices rooted in care, healing, and legacy.
