Pregnancy & Postpartum Mother Circle with Fatima Chavez

Come join us in a warm, supportive space where we will gather to share, connect, and nurture one another through the profound journey of pregnancy and postpartum. This circle is a place for open-hearted conversation around the emotional landscape of pregnancy, birth, postpartum experiences, identity, healing, parenting, and everything in between. Whether you’re expecting, newly postpartum, or somewhere in the middle, you’re welcome here. Let’s build community and hold space for each other’s stories. Babies in arms are welcome.

Fatima Chavez Lopez (she/her) is a first-generation Chicana from Oxnard — a mother, birthworker (doula), traditional bodyworker, reiki practitioner, traditional herbalist, lactation educator and counselor, and cofounder of the Oxnard Birthworkers Collective. Raised with the traditional bodywork and herbal medicine practices common in her home, Fatima’s formal journey began in 2014 and is deeply rooted in Traditional Mexican Medicine. In 2019, she became a full-spectrum doula through Birthworkers of Color in Long Beach and received her Lactation Educator and Counselor certification from UC San Diego. She continues to learn with educators, mentors, and elders, deepening her practice in traditional healing. Fatima offers trauma-informed, intuitive care that is centered on the individual. She believes the power of body wisdom will guide each person’s unique path to wellness.
