Meet Your HostsJamie – Hello! My name is Jamie. I have a nine-year-old son named Desmond. I enjoy knitting and sewing, laying in the sun, reading, and baking. For intentional movement I run and practice yoga. Things that excite and fulfill me are; spending time with my friends, being with my family, witchcraft and paganism, fashion, creativity, planning holidays, and caring for my home. I am excited and inspired by creating spaces for mothers to gather and connect. This type of gathering allows us to be the incredible sacred healers and caregivers we are as well as providing the space to express ourselves as multi-faceted humans. Lizzy – Hi! My name is Lizzy. My son Elliot is eight-years-old. I am a Tulsa native. I love playing with my son and taking long bike rides. In my personal time, I enjoy practicing my magical craft, spending time in nature, and focusing on self-care. I was a co-creator of Bloom, Women’s Sensual Self-Care Retreats, in the Oklahoma and Texas area. I am passionate about supporting women and experienced in holding safe collective spaces. Designing this gathering to uplift and bring moms together has felt really good. This gathering is special because it’s a collaborative event created with the mothers attending.
