Happy Black History Month Jamaa Friends, Family and Supporters!❤️🖤💚

Jamaa Birth Village is Black History every single day!

Right in the heart of the nation, in St. Louis, Missouri, Jamaa Birth Village exists as a gem, a treasure, a beacon of change and a herstorical legacy.✨

Home to Missouri’s First Black Led & Founded Midwifery Clinic, Home to Missouri’s First Black Certified Professional Midwife & Black CPM Preceptor, and the birthplace of the St. Louis Black Doula & Midwife movement, where 460+ doulas were trained over 8-years to close the Black Doula Disparity gap, and countless Black women have been inspired to start school and become community midwives.💫

With 24+ awards in honor of excellent leadership in Black Maternal Health & innovation, having served over 1,000 families with free & low-cost maternity care, and with over 400 medical providers (NICU nurses, OBGYNS, MFM’s, L & D nurses, nursing & obstetrical students) trained—we continue to break barriers to build new systems that include holistic, risk appropriate maternity care services, prioritizing dignified, respectful and high quality care for Black Women and babies.🌟

Midwives belong to the people, families and communities-not the system.”-Midwife Okunsola

This year we’re celebrating National Midwifery Week with midwives all over the globe who do this amazing work. We’re thanking every midwife who’s joined us in the fight to make birth better. We’re uplifting Black midwives and boldly bringing our cultural, ancestral and spiritual practices, right along with us! We’re reclaiming, proclaiming and joyously saying-Midwives are the answer! Bring back midwives to every community and village.💙

When the system has shattered the healing remedies, sacred generational ceremonies and practices that have benefited birthing women and families for years, we at Jamaa Birth Village call in the power and gift of Sankofa-to go back and get our wisdom, activate it and keep going.🙌🏾

Don’t forget who you are, don’t forget who WE are, and don’t forget what midwifery really is and what it really was before colonization and criminalization.

May midwives all over unite despite systemic credentials and call in recognition, investment and the support we so deserve. Happy National Midwifery week and Happy Community Midwife month, today and everyday.💙✊🏾💙

Hey Mama’s

On today’s episode we are coming in hot with our first special guest for this season! We introduced the wonderful, Mrs. Shelah Marie, to our podcast and a time was had!
She is a women’s wellness influencer, the founder of Curvy, Curly, Conscious movement, also an Award-nominated TV show Host for Couch Conversations this year and the list goes on and on!!!

We had the pleasure to review her new book, “Unruly: A guide to reclaiming your true self.” And it was definitely a great read! We had the opportunity to pick her brain and dive in deep about the many topics she had in her book. Some of the things we learned were, what it means to be UNRULY, ways to meditate and manifest, and also how to bring out that Main Character energy!

It was truly a delight to have her as a guest and if you are ready to catch some “JEMS” make sure to tune in and listen.

Thank you to all the ladies who attended our event making our own personal luxury perfume with the LOVELY Shelby Marie Luxury Fragrance Bar .
She was professional, inspiring and an overall delight.😘

We will be back Ms. Shelby. 😉

To the ladies— thank you for spending your Saturday with us, for socializing amongst each other and for taking some much needed time away from being a mom. WE KNOW that motherhood can be exhausting at times and it’s important to have some “me some” to unwind.

We hope to see you at our next Mama Meet-up ❤️
