Are you sitting with the quiet (or not-so-quiet) question of whether parenthood is something you want β€” or can β€” choose? This workshop is a space to pause, reflect, and centre yourself in the midst of that uncertainty.

The workshop will explore what it means to care for yourself while navigating complex, tender terrain. Through gentle prompts, creative reflection, and practical tools, we’ll make space for the in-between β€” the not-knowing β€” as a valid and worthy part of your path.

You can host a D&D Satellite.
We’ll help you hold the space. You bring the people and the fire.

Because sometimes, change starts with a circle of chairs and one good question.
