Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or not quite like yourself on your fertility journey?
Fertility can be a deeply personal and emotional process, often carrying uncertainty, loss of control, and experiences that are hard to put into words. If you are struggling with fertility challenges, or if you are a supporter of someone going through fertility challenges, join us! This gathering offers a gentle space to pause, reconnect, and explore what’s inside, through mindful creative practice, shared stories, and meaningful conversation.
Together, we will make space for what’s present, and gently explore what may be ready to soften, shift, or be unlocked within.
Each participant will create a unique zen brushed calligraphy that they can take home for inspiration and resourcing on their journey.
