This is for anyone who wants to engage reproductive justice in a way that is touching, thought-provoking, and embodied.

Let’s be real: life has been hectic. 🌪️ Between the endless to-do lists, the mental load, and just "frantic lifin’" in general, it’s easy to feel like you’re running on empty.

Most of us are navigating so much right now, but your emotional well-being shouldn’t have to take a back seat. It’s time to trade the noise for some intentional calm. 🧘🏾‍♀️✨

1️⃣ Slay Your Anxiety: Calm & Confident From Pregnancy to Postpartum

We recently learned of a potential hurdle some of our amazing Birthing the Magic Collaborative supporters have experienced, so we wanted to clear things up!

On our donation platform, you might see an optional tip amount automatically added to your total. Seeing that unexpected number can be off-putting, but here is the scoop:

Most fundraising sites take a 3-5% fee directly out of every donation we receive. But the platform we use, Zeffy, does things differently. Zeffy’s mission is to support nonprofits, so they cover 100% of fundraising fees for Birthing the Magic Collaborative. This means every dollar of your donation goes straight to our work—Zeffy doesn't charge BTM a dime. If you give $85, we get $85.

To maintain this free model for nonprofits like ours, Zeffy asks for an optional tip, which is the extra amount you see. It is truly an option, and you are not required to give one. Even if you choose not to tip, Zeffy will not charge BTM a fee.

You have complete control! You can adjust that tip amount to whatever works for you, or even to $0, and still fully support BTM. To bypass, just click the 'Other' dropdown menu and type '0' in the 'Contribution' field.

If you prefer to send a check instead, please DM me for my mailing address.

Thank you so much for your support of Birthing the Magic Collaborative. You are so appreciated!
