Reawakening Ancient Feminine Wisdom in Pregnancy, Birth & Motherhood

A summit hosted by Nancy Lucina · 2018

Reawakening Ancient Feminine Wisdom—summit speaker collage

In 2018, Nancy brought together more than twenty practitioners, educators, midwives, and wisdom keepers from across the birth world for a series of conversations about what it truly means to prepare for birth—not just physically, but at the level of the subconscious, the somatic, and the sacred.

Thousands of women listened. The conversations shaped much of what became Birth Reimagined.

These conversations took place in 2018 and are no longer hosted online. What follows is a record of the practitioners and educators who generously shared their knowledge.
