First published in 2009, the Journal for the Pregnant Goddess was created to celebrate and support women throughout their journey into motherhood.
Born from a shared passion for writing, painting, and women’s empowerment, co-creators Nicole Graham and Tara Spicer developed a beautifully illustrated pregnancy journal designed to encourage self-discovery, reflection, and connection with a woman’s inner wisdom.
Following the natural progression of pregnancy, the journal combines guided writing prompts, affirmations, blessings, and space for personal reflection. Two positive birthing stories, accompanied by interviews with the mothers, offer inspiration and encouragement as readers prepare for childbirth. A companion guided meditation CD offers additional support, helping expectant mothers release fears, embrace their changing experiences, and prepare for childbirth.
