We have witnessed and experienced how birth is not only a portal for new life, but also an opportunity to nurture ourselves, heal ancestral wounds and patterns, deepen our relationships, and feel held by a great web of collective wisdom and support. Together, these elements become the bedrock for a thriving family and life.

Yet too often, birth is overly-medicalized or spoken of solely in terms of the baby. For many women and birthing people, it has been generations since we felt truly seen, held, and honored in our own becoming.

We're birthing Tend as part of a larger effort to reclaim pregnancy as a sacred rite of passage and revolutionize the way our society views and values birth.
