BLOOM

 

 How well do you know your fertility?

YOU’RE INVITED! Join TOP women’s health experts in DC on August 21st for a REAL TALK on Fertility, Infertility & Body Image. GRAB TICKETS NOW WHILE IT LASTS! LIMITED SEATING.

The truth is…your fertility matters, even if you never want to be pregnant. Millions of women struggle with reproductive health issues like PCOS, endometriosis, and fibroids, resulting in fertility challenges. Not only that, it’s a biological reality that fertility gradually declines over time.

So, why aren’t we talking about it? Let’s be real. It’s very taboo. You deserve to be informed. You deserve to know what’s going on with your body so you can be empowered & make the best choices now and for the future you. In your 20’s, 30’s or 40’s? No matter what your journey looks like, you’re invited to our space with phenomenal women all over the DC-metro, along with top women’s health experts for a REAL TALK on Fertility, Infertility & Body Image.

You’ll receive gems from the experts, enjoy a delish lunch, shop women-owned brands, enter into raffles, vibe to great music & so much more. Visit the event page for more details!

We are not leaving anything out. Let’s share our stories. Let’s break the cycle. Let’s break the stigma. Tell a friend, to tell a friend! 

GRAB TICKETS NOW BEFORE THEY RUN OUT!  See you there! 

BLOOM WELLNESS EVENT

 BLOOM is an interactive, collaborative wellness event with a health-promoting approach. We focus on practical ways women can feed their mind, body, and soul with what is essential, so they can thrive and live a vibrant, purpose-filled life. 

Each year, we focus on a variety of nutrition and wellness-related topics that are usually undervalued or overlooked in the community to help women build more confidence in their bodies while nourishing a healthy relationship with food. 

You are invited to join us at our next BLOOM event for an unforgettable life-changing experience!


BLOOM 2021

At the BLOOM Virtual Retreat, we elevated the conversation around body image, nutrition and periods. A portion of the proceeds went to the Fibroid Foundation, a non-profit organization raising fibroids awareness, advocating for ongoing funding of fibroids research, erasing the stigma of silence around women’s menstrual health, and helping to minimize treatment disparities with layered patient support

 


BLOOM 2020

As women, we’re the experts on our own bodies. Most times, we know what does and doesn’t feel normal, but we don’t always feel empowered to speak up to get the care we need. The health of a woman’s reproductive system also affects the rest of her body. At BLOOM 2020, we dug a little deeper into the topics of sexual & reproductive wellness and highlighted things like periods, vaginal care, sex, (in)fertility, mental wellness, diet, body positivity & more.

We had an afternoon of great discussions by speakers Kendra Tolbert, MS, RDDietitian & Yoga Teacher, Shawn Davis-Wilensky, MD, MPH, FACOG, Obstetrician & Gynecologist, Erica St. Bernard, LCMFT, Therapist & Founder, Your Life’s Well, Mabel Obinim Bashorun, CD (DONA), Within Her Birth Services and moderators Moe Digga & Valerie Agyeman, RDN.  Amazing music and vibes were from Singer & Songwriter Abigail Furr.

 This years vendors were DC-metro women owned businesses and organizations: Sabreen Cosmetics, Sprinkle Me Cake, Jasmine’s Nail Obsession, Akiba Fragrance & Wellness Studio, Crowned Magnolia Birth Services, Sister Circle, Charismatic Creations, Embrace Makeup Artistry, Machee Creates, Pokes by Marcy.
