At Birthing the Magic Collaborative (BTM), we are addressing a long-overlooked and life-threatening gap in maternal care that continues to put Black birthing people at risk.

For generations, Black families have spoken out about being dismissed, mistreated, or ignored in medical spaces. These are not isolated incidents. They reflect a legacy of systemic racism and reproductive injustice.

Today, Black women are three times more likely to die from childbirth-related causes than white women, even when they have advanced education, live in well-resourced communities, and have adequate income. They are also more likely to experience preventable pregnancy complications, reflecting a healthcare system that continues to devalue and dismiss their lives.

This is where we come in.

BTM exists to bridge the educational and communication divide between Black birthing people and the healthcare system.

Culturally relevant, science-backed perinatal education is not a luxury. It is essential.

When Black birthing people are equipped with trusted knowledge and community support, they are empowered to advocate for themselves, protect their well-being, and reclaim joy in their birthing journeys.

We provide free, live, and recorded virtual workshops created specifically for Black birthing people and those who care for them. Our sessions cover pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and early parenting. Each offering is grounded in evidence, led by Black clinicians and experts, and centered in dignity, cultural safety, and joy.

We know that perinatal education improves health outcomes. Yet too many Black families still lack access to education that speaks to their experiences. Cost, cultural disconnect, and rigid scheduling often make traditional options inaccessible.

At BTM, we remove those barriers.

Our workshops are free.

They are flexibly scheduled.

They are led by Black doctors, doulas, nurses, lactation consultants, and researchers.

They are rooted in both lived experience and clinical evidence.

Our commitment is clear.

We are here to ensure that Black birthing people are informed, affirmed, and empowered.

We are here to help transform a maternal care system so that it truly honors their lives, their choices, and their full humanity.

We’re not just here to improve outcomes.
We’re here to help Black mamas and their families thrive.

We’re here to offer transformative care and unapologetically empowering solutions.

Through education that is accessible, affirming, and rooted in culture, we are creating a world where Black birthing people thrive, while working to dismantle the systems that harm them.
