Glow

Prenatal

Glow is a prenatal day retreat set in an ancient cedar rainforest, aimed at: 

- Empowering and Inspiring confidence in expectant women and couples,

- Guiding women and couples in creating personalized family plans to THRIVE into the "4th trimester"

- Reclaiming birth as a sacred ceremony and celebration; dispelling fear and embracing trust

- Celebrating life, birth, family and community.

​

We will explore everything no one tells you about having a baby, including such topics as sleep, returning to intimacy, taking maternity leave, proper self care, baby care basics and more. Think beyond birth and prepare for the lifetime that follows it.

​

Glow is an inclusive space.  All genders and gender expressions are welcome.  All variety of family types are welcome.
