Evonna Christmon's Important Links

Are you a Black woman on the path to motherhood who has been handed statistics about your risk instead of a space to celebrate your power?

Black women are told 3 to 4 times more often that pregnancy could cost them their lives — but rarely given spaces that honor the joy, sacredness, and spiritual strength of Black motherhood. When the entire conversation is rooted in fear and trauma, your body and your womb pay the price.

In this episode, Carolina sits down with Evonna Christmon, The Motherhood Healer — spiritual doula, perinatal community health worker, and visionary behind the Motherhood Healing Festival in Griffin, Georgia. Born from two prophetic dreams, this sacred festival is a love letter to Black motherhood — reclaiming joy, ceremony, and sisterhood as the medicine Black women have always deserved.

BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU'LL DISCOVER:

  • Why nervous system safety is the foundation of fertility — and how generations of stored trauma in the body silently block conception and birth for Black women
  • How ancient womb ceremonies, sobada, and body-based healing are helping Black women release what Western medicine was never designed to touch
  • What the Motherhood Healing Festival (April 12, 2026 · Griffin, GA) is, and how you can attend, donate, or show up in support of Black maternal health
