The Body Conversation is a platform for people from diverse communities who long for a safe space where they can talk about their experiences with pregnancy, childbirth, motherhood, and postpartum complications.

Alongside publishing essays and stories that are centered around the above themes, we host webinars which are structured into episodes, and for each one, we invite a group of women and a medical professional to join us to talk about what happens to the woman’s body when she decides to have a baby.

We hope that people will have access to these resources, to prepare themselves for the journey they most probably have no idea how thorny or easy or even horrifying it can be.

Lots of love.
