So much of pregnancy prep focuses on the birth itself, yet the weeks and months that follow are where the real adjustment happens, for both of you.

Beyond Birth is an afternoon workshop for expecting couples and mamas-to-be. It gives you a clear picture of what postpartum actually looks like and a practical plan to face it together.

We cover what happens in your body and mind after birth, how to share the load at home, how to build the support around you, and what partners need to thrive too.You’ll leave informed, on the same page, and with a postpartum plan you’ve made together.

The afternoon is split into two parts, with time to pause, connect and ask questions throughout.

Kheyrne has spent the last 28 years focused on reconnecting women with their intrinsic bodily intelligence. She works through a trauma-informed lens, guiding women through hormonal transitions such as pregnancy, postpartum and perimenopause. She has seen that the needs and intelligence of a new mother’s biology have been ignored for the last century and the results have been tragic. It’s time to change the story for the next generation.

Holly Brook is an Ayurvedic postpartum doula, herbalist, holistic health coach and founder of Mother Moon Herbals. She supports women through the sacred transition into motherhood, offering care that feels like being mothered.
Drawing on traditional postpartum wisdom and her own experience of motherhood, Holly brings together nourishing food, healing herbs and rituals, warm oil massage and traditional bodywork from around the world. She honours postpartum as a rite of passage, a time when the mother deserves to be held and nurtured as she rests, replenishes and finds her footing in a new identity.
Her work is rooted in the belief that when a mother is nourished and cared for, the whole family thrives.
