In Awe: A Guide Through Your Sacred Transformation
A complete, soul-centered path through pregnancy, birth, renewal, and legacy — designed for parents entering this season later in life or as old souls.
In Awe understands pregnancy as a series of living thresholds, each one an invitation into identity, purpose, and cultural change. The work begins with you: your body, your relationship with yourself, your history, your connections with others, and the systems that shape care.
It asks what to keep and what to release, and offers ways to actually do that — through reflection, ritual, practices, and advocacy. Whether your path leads to parenting, loss, or unexpected outcomes, this work remains with you. It is strong enough to serve as your central pregnancy guide alongside medical care.
This is not a course about doing pregnancy correctly. It is a companion for moving through it with presence, courage, and meaning.
Scholarship access available — no application, no questions asked. Learn more.
30 chapters across six sections
Foundations, the pregnancy journey, preparing for birth, early postpartum, continuing support, and closing integration. Every section opens with ancestral grounding and closes with a transformation bridge linking inner change to its outer ripples.
Partner pathways
Partners are not support props — they are being changed, too. Every section includes dedicated partner modules, reflections, and bridges. Their transformation is treated as real and significant, not secondary.
Trauma-informed & outcome-inclusive
Built for complex, layered pregnancies. In Awe holds families regardless of how their path unfolds — whether it leads to a baby in arms, loss, complications, or something in between.
Advocacy & voice
Scripts for medical conversations, workplace disclosures, family boundaries, and systemic navigation — concrete language for real moments, woven throughout the course rather than appended as afterthought.
Around the world
Every section opens with global ancestral wisdom — cultural practices, historical snapshots, and traditions from across the world that root pregnancy in a lineage older and wider than any single story.
Sibling & family support
Dedicated modules for supporting older children, navigating shifting family roles, and bringing the whole household — not just the pregnant person — into the arc of change.
30 modules across 6 sections, plus partner guides throughout. Each section opens with Around the World features and an invocation, and closes with advocacy scripts, affirmations, and a transformation bridge linking inner change to its outer ripples.

A companion for loss — always free
Loving Legacies
A companion for families navigating miscarriage, stillbirth, or the death of a baby — offered freely for anyone in their hour of need.
Loving Legacies lives within In Awe as Part II — 16 chapters across four sections — and also stands on its own, because grief deserves its own door, open and immediate, without enrollment requirements.
It addresses the unseen labor of loss: navigating medical and legal systems, creating ritual, rebuilding relationships, and transforming silence into witness. Every reflection is paired with advocacy tools, helping you turn remembrance into legacy. It includes the same partner pathways, family journals, and transformation bridges as Part I — mirrored for the specific work of grief.
If you are in In Awe and your path turns toward loss, you step directly into Loving Legacies — the course walks with you without asking you to read content meant for a different reality.
No enrollment, no cost, no application. Always.
Complete parallel structure
The same depth as Part I — reflections, rituals, advocacy tools, affirmations, ancestral grounding — rebuilt for the specific realities of miscarriage, stillbirth, and the death of a baby.
Partner & family pathways
Partners grieve differently, not less. Children need their own language for loss. Loving Legacies holds the whole family — partner modules, sibling support, and family bridges throughout.
Advocacy for the bereaved
Scripts for navigating hospitals, employers, insurance, and institutions. Language for conversations others don't know how to start. Tools for transforming personal grief into systemic witness.
Loving Legacies is the complete Part II of In Awe. Its four sections walk through the immediate threshold of loss, the work of grief and memory, rebuilding relationship and identity, and community change and legacy.

The Journal Library
A journal for every person in the story.
Not performance journals. Not checklists. Sacred archives — for major crossings, for the days between, for the people you invite into your becoming. Eight journals for In Awe. Eight mirrored companions for Loving Legacies. Designed as printable keepsakes and heirloom companions.
In Awe Journals
The Threshold Journal
The sacred archive of becoming
A journal for the major crossings — not daily, not performative. Nine thresholds from Arrival through Legacy, each with body witness, letters, transformation bridge responses, and rituals of return.
The Between Journal
For the days between thresholds
For the ordinary days that are anything but ordinary. Gentle prompts for the middle — when no major threshold is crossed but life is still quietly changing.
The Partner Threshold Journal
A sacred archive of becoming, too
You are not an accessory to someone else's transformation. You are being changed by this, too. Seven thresholds honoring the partner's own arc through this season.
The Partner Between Journal
For the unsaid middle
For the feelings that don't have obvious language. Not emotional homework — a private space for the partner's own quiet becoming.
The Witness Journal
For the people you choose to invite into this becoming
Not a guestbook. A structured companion for the sister, friend, or loved one who wants to truly witness — filled with reflections, returned to you as a keepsake gift.
Holding
For little ones in a changing family
For children roughly 3–7. Simple, warm, visual. A place for little feelings in a big change.
Belonging
For kids becoming bigger, too
For older children navigating a family in transformation — with a Big Feelings Map, honest prompts, and space to say what they're actually carrying.
Becoming
For the parts of this change that belong to you
For teenagers who are also in the middle of this change — with language that respects their perspective, privacy, and complexity.
Loving Legacies Journals
The Threshold Journal
The sacred archive of love that continues
Not a grief workbook. Nine thresholds for the bereaved person — from the first crossing through continuing love and legacy.
The Between Journal
For the impossible middle
For the days when the world keeps moving and you are not ready. Gentle holding for the space between acute grief and whatever comes next.
The Partner Threshold Journal
A sacred archive of grief, love, and what remains
Seven thresholds for the partner navigating loss — honoring their grief as its own, not as support for someone else's.
The Partner Between Journal
For the impossible middle
For the partner in the unnamed space of grief — the things no one saw, the feelings with no clear shape.
The Witness Journal
For the people you choose to help carry what continues
For those who want to truly witness — not fix, not move on, but stay. A structured companion for accompanying grief with presence.
Holding
For little ones living through grief and love that stays
Gentle, warm, honest. For young children who are also grieving — in their own language, at their own pace.
Belonging
For kids living through grief and love that continues
For older children navigating loss — with a Big Feelings Map and honest space for what they're actually carrying.
Becoming
For the truths grief makes impossible to ignore
For teenagers experiencing loss — with the directness, privacy, and complexity their experience deserves.
Alongside the courses
Transformation deepens through practice and connection.
Beyond the modules and journals, these layers turn reflection into practice and practice into culture.
Community Circles
Facilitated gatherings for reflection, storytelling, support, and shared learning — spaces where your becoming is witnessed by others in theirs.
Advocacy Pathways
Step-by-step tools for naming and transforming harmful systems in healthcare, workplaces, and communities. From personal voice to collective change.
Affirmations Library
Gentle, powerful phrases written for both you and your partner — to anchor daily life in awareness, gratitude, courage, and choice.
Scripts Library
Language for the hard conversations — with providers, employers, family, and yourself. Advocacy scripts for the moments when you need words and can't find them.
Insights
An opportunity to contribute your experience — anonymously, if you choose — to reports that help reshape the systems surrounding pregnancy, birth, loss, and parenting. Your story can ripple outward.
Resource Libraries
Mental health pathways, trauma and safety resources, practical checklists, joy and resilience practices, and intersectional appendices from other editions — organized by what you need, when you need it.
The In Awe Suite
More editions of In Awe are on the way.
The work is not finished until every family can move through this season of transformation with care that honors their full humanity. Each edition meets a place where belonging has been denied — offering practical guidance shaped to each community's lived realities and to every possible outcome.
The current Older Parents & Old Souls edition is trauma-informed, family-structure inclusive, and outcome-inclusive — and welcomes anyone drawn to its depth while community-specific editions are in development.
Queer & Trans Parents Edition
Queer and trans parents still meet systems built to exclude them — from medical forms that erase identity to laws that question family legitimacy. Yet these families have always rewritten what creation can mean. This edition celebrates that living truth: that to make life as yourself is an act of courage and authorship.
Parents of Color Edition
Parents of color still move through systems shaped by bias, inequity, and histories marked by survival instead of support. Yet those same lineages hold deep resilience — turning scarcity into art, injustice into movement, and love into continuity. This edition rises from that legacy.
Survival & Resilience Edition
Many families live within the impossible math of modern life: working without rest, caring without leave, building futures in systems that measure worth by output. Here, survival is not a lesser story but a revered one — honoring everyday heroism and turning endurance into collective renewal.
Disability & Chronic Illness Edition
Disabled parents and those with chronic illness move through systems never designed with their bodies or rhythms in mind. Yet disabled lineages carry profound wisdom — turning adaptation into expertise and interdependence into strength. This edition honors pregnancy not despite disability but through it.
