Friends
One of the things we've learned through this work is that we spend a great deal of time preparing and supporting mothers, and rightfully so. But we don't always spend enough time helping fathers understand how to support, advocate for, and engage during pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period.

That's why we are excited about an upcoming collaboration between Birthing the Magic Collaborative and Gabby Albert and her team at 4Kira4Moms:

4Kira4Dads: Fatherhood and Advocacy for Safer Births

This conversation is designed to provide an overview to help fathers become more informed, engaged, and confident members of the birth team. They will also introduce their new free app, designed to help dads recognize warning signs, ask thoughtful questions, support blood pressure monitoring, attend appointments, advocate with care, and know when to speak up.

A prepared dad can be a powerful partner. When fathers have the information and tools they need, families are stronger, and birth experiences can be safer.

We'd love for you to join us, and if this message resonates with you, I'd be grateful if you would share it with your network, colleagues, friends, and family who may benefit from the conversation.

When the big day comes, it’s easy to feel like you’re just there to hold a hand or stay out of the way. You might feel overwhelmed, unsure of what to say, or worried about doing the wrong thing.

But the truth? You are one of the most powerful advocates your family has.

Your voice matters. Your presence matters. And knowing what to look out for can quite literally save a life.

Join 4Kira4Moms for a virtual conversation designed just for you:
4Kira4Dads: Fatherhood and Advocacy for Safer Births

This isn't about sitting through another lecture. It’s about getting the playbook for showing up with confidence, protecting your partner, and being a core member of the birth team.

What we are locking in:

🩸 How to spot critical warning signs (like blood pressure issues) and when to speak up.
🗣️ How to ask the right questions to doctors and nurses without feeling confrontational.
📋 How to navigate appointments and hospital dynamics like a pro.
🤝 How to team up with your doula so you both have your partner’s back.
When you are prepared and supported, your whole family is stronger. Let’s get equipped.

Happy Father's Day to the dads, uncles, Pops, grandfathers, bonus dads, and all the men who show up with love, guidance, and support.

Today, we also honor the mamas carrying the responsibilities of both parents, showing up every day with strength, sacrifice, and unwavering love.

Families are built through care, commitment, and presence. Thank you to everyone standing in the gap, lending a hand, sharing wisdom, and helping children feel safe, seen, and loved.

Wishing you a day filled with appreciation and joy. 💙

Grandmas, Nanas, Pop Pops, Aunties, and Village Members... this one's for you, too. ❤️

If there's a dad-to-be in your life, why not join him for this important conversation?

The journey to a safer birth doesn't belong to mom alone. It takes a village. When fathers are informed, supported, and empowered to advocate, families are stronger.

Join Birthing the Magic Collaborative and 4Kira4Moms for 4Kira4Dads: Fatherhood and Advocacy for Safer Births and learn how you can support the fathers, partners, and families you love.

Because every dad deserves a village, too.

Dad, what would you do if something didn't seem right?

Would you know the warning signs? Would you know what questions to ask? Would you know when to speak up?

Too many families learn the answers too late.

Join Birthing the Magic Collaborative and 4Kira4Moms for **4Kira4Dads: Fatherhood and Advocacy for Safer Births**, a conversation about how fathers can support moms, advocate for care, and help create safer pregnancies, births, and postpartum journeys.

Last week, I had a difficult conversation with our team about fundraising.

We compared this year's donations to last year's, and someone raised a concern that many organizations serving Black communities are hearing right now: some people are questioning whether they should support nonprofits that openly state they focus on Black families.

I sat with that conversation.

We aren't naïve. We've seen the headlines. We've watched organizations quietly change their language or distance themselves from the communities they were created to serve.

But then I thought about why Birthing the Magic Collaborative exists.

We exist because Black women and babies continue to face unacceptable disparities in maternal and infant health outcomes.

We exist because families deserve access to free, culturally relevant education and support.

We exist because birth should be sacred, safe, and supported.

The need hasn't changed, so neither has our mission.

As we approach Juneteenth, we're inviting you to help us support mamas and those who care for them.

Will you make a gift of $18.65 in honor of Juneteenth ~ June 19, 1865?
Also, will you please consider sharing this post?

And if sharing publicly doesn't feel comfortable, send it to a few friends in a DM and tell them why this mission matters to you.

Small actions add up.

That's how communities are built.
That's how movements grow.
That's how change happens.

Thank you for standing with Black birthing people and those who care for them.
