Hi Desire on Fire fam! Ellie here. This week’s episode is all about celebrating new beginnings, because we're diving deep into something you may have seen us share online and wondered about: the beautiful world of baby blessing ceremonies. This episode is inspired by the baby blessing Aimee recently hosted for me, as I enter the 3rd trimester and move closer to birthing my baby girl into the world. I want every mama to receive this kind of love and support, so I wanted to share what actually goes into hosting something like this, so you can create one yourself, if you feel called! And who better to navigate this journey with me than Aimee, who's always got amazing insights on creating meaningful experiences. We shared clear and simple steps, from who to invite, how to set it up, and how to structure your ceremony.  So whether you're a soon-to-be mama yourself, a supportive sister, or just someone who wants to celebrate life passages in a way that truly matters, there’s lots of gold for you in this episode. 

 

We also made an invitation at the end of the episode to an incredible free virtual event a sister of ours is hosting, all about creating a new paradigm for pregnancy, birth, postpartum and motherhood!

 

“REBIRTH EARTH is a FREE 5-day live online transformational journey to reclaim the roots of your innate feminine essence and deepen harmony in the world, which begins in our homes.

 

Are you ready to transform your life, your family, and create a ripple effect that spans for generations to come?

 

I hope you will join me and the other incredible speakers in these thought provoking and inspiring conversations as we cultivate this community!
