Conscious Contraception Skillshare


 

Know Your Cycle.

Know Your Self.

Claim Your Power.

This skillshare invites individuals to demystify & de-industrialize their contraception by cultivating CONSCIOUSNESS of:

  • Basic biology, anatomy, & physiology

  • The importance of honoring & de-compartmentalizing the mind, body, & spirit connection.

  • The radical sociopolitical & economic implications of claiming true sovereignty in our sexuality & fertility.

  • The fact we are remembering, not recreating the wheel.

Womb sovereignty, healing & wisdom is our birthright.

Let’s remember & reclaim the wheel, not reinvent it.

The Conscious Contraception Skillshare offers participants a practical foundation of biology (body ecology) education, as well as exposure to a rich array of sociopolitical & spiritual philosophies.

Praise From Past Participants

“Sam is such a passionate & generous teacher & her perspective being brought to such a tender topic is a gift to us all. I learned so much about myself & what it means to be fertile & see now how much power is in that. I feel better connected to my body, better connected to others who bleed, & better connected to the divine aspects of it all. Sam is so thorough in her work & has such a beautiful spirit of compassion through it all that you feel you can be vulnerable with her, but also that she respects your boundaries & needs. I loved the spiritual aspects of the course the most & am looking forward to diving into her resources again & again and seeking out all the books she recommended, too. This course definitely prepared me to move forward with a clear plan for my fertility and a better understanding of my needs.”

“Conscious contraception skillshare is an incredible course that sprung me into deeper exploration of my sexuality and fertility. It not only helped me strengthen my relationship with my own cycle, but it prompted me to have vital conversations in my romantic partnership to strengthen our trust and consent of the pleasure we explore. I love how Sam pushes the edges of radical education and challenges all the biased bullshit we learned in “sex ed.” I am so thankful for Sam’s knowledge base & the course that was birthed from her labor.”

“I felt empowered to learn more, & to take more agency in my own sexual health & fertility choices. Prepare to have your mind blown!”

“I no longer fear my fertility, or view it as something separate & baffling. I see that I am my fertility, my cycle. I love every part of it. I see the value of healing in every way. I am now much more in tune with myself, & with what my body tells me. Samantha has an incredible approach towards sharing her knowledge, & I loved the way she was so honest & genuine in the skillshare. I will appreciate this forever – I am deeply grateful for everything I have learned.”
