From the first birth stories we hear as children, from messages given in prenatal appointments and classes, to traumatic birth stories told by perfect strangers in the grocery story...we have been entrained to view or experience birth and postpartum as a Victim?s Journey.

But there is another way.

Pam England, midwife and author of Birthing From Within, is giving an inspiring talk to all parents and birth professionals on Birth As a Hero's Journey. Learn the important distinction between birth as medical event, a rite of passage and the hero's journey. Pam England will explain how we were conditioned to experience birth in one way or the other, and what we can do now to prepare for birth as a hero's journey.

Pam England, has been teaching and initiating countless women for over two decades. She will present moving birth stories, birth art, and processes that will inspire everyone who attends to think and talk about birth differently.

When: Friday, June 8, 6:30 ? 9:30 PM
