Our hearts are so full 💛
Happy Black Maternal Health Week! Although it is celebrated worldwide for a week, we support and celebrate Black mamas every single day of the year so connect with us to do the same. 🤰🏽🤎
Thank you to everyone who came out to celebrate, move, and show up for Black mamas and their families at our 3rd Annual Black Maternal Health Walk. What a beautiful day of joy, connection, and community. 💛
We want to give deep gratitude to our incredible team and village:
✨ Our interns Keisha and Rikee for holding it down behind the scenes
✨ Our volunteers for creating such a welcoming and beautiful space
✨ Our stretch leader for preparing our bodies to move with intention
✨ Tarena for getting us up and celebrating through line dancing
✨Bri for Djing & watching the babies!
✨ Doula Cameron for bringing out the tribe and grounding us with breathwork
✨ The Southern Connecticut State University Public Health Department for opening its doors to us
✨ Our board member, Dr. Evans, for being our backbone
✨ Brittany, we missed you while you were out doing your midwifery thing and can’t wait to have you back
Special love to the dads who showed up to celebrate the mamas. We need more of that love 💛
To the kids for bringing the joy and the bubbles 🫧
To the Sistahs and Planned Parenthood who came through with the snacks, because y’all know community care is real care. 🍏🥭
Lastly and MOST importantly…
Thank you to every Black mama who got up, took the energy to get yourself and your kids ready, and actually showed up!
And to every Black mama who has ever trusted us to cultivate sacred spaces where you are seen, heard, honored, and celebrated!
You are why we do this.
This is the village. 💛
