There is so much weight to Mother’s Day when you’re waiting to become a mom. We know that and acknowledge the heaviness. If you’re in need of a safe space to explore the grief, we have that for you. We are making a space for you to join our call and find solidarity and encouragement as you’re wishing to have a different story. Our calls are free, open and facilitated by an empathetic and supportive mental health therapist who has known the same journey. Please share with anyone you know might need that space. RSVP and come even if it feels overwhelming. We get that.

Every month we gather women at different stages of their infertility journey. We hope to hold space for all the exhaustion, grief and overwhelm that can entail. And we also hold hope and prepare spaces for them when they step into the path of parenthood. Your stories are all unique, important and not just numbers or timelines. If you want to help us raise awareness of infertility and our support of those facing it, share your story with us (Dm or email [email protected]) or get a shirt and 20% of the profits help support our program and groups.

We may have been a little quiet on this channel- but we are here! Groups are also all virtual to help ease access and expand support during these winter months. We know how hard the holidays can feel when you’re wishing you could make an announcement of joy or even be honest about how you’re struggling through infertility. Come be honest with us- in all the grief, sadness and frustration. This is a space where you can be heard and understood.

Come out and find support from a group of people who understand the heartache of infertility. During group, you will have the opportunity to share your story, grieve struggling circumstances, and explore facets of hope. Since everyone grieves this journey differently, this group will be very informal. Let’s gather and find comfort in a room where we are surrounded by other people who “get it”.

What to expect from group? The typical group flow is to focus on a topic each month and then follow up with open discussion, journey sharing, and exploring/learning ways to find healing and support in this unique monthly cycle of grief. We explore the complexity surrounding recurrent loss and aspects of the fertility journey that are often overlooked, leaving people at risk of feeling isolated and alone. Group members will leave with tools to cope, connection to others who “get it” and a hard copy journal of resolved stories written by graduated group members.

Please RSVP and notify the host if your RSVP changes as there are limited amounts of spots and people may be on the waitlist to attend. RSVP on website or profile
