About this Event

The Holding Space: A Yoga & Infertility Series

Presented by Embodied By Me x Fertility Ain’t Fair

There are seasons in life that require more than strength.

They require support.

They require softness.

They require space.

The Holding Space is a locally-rooted collaboration designed to provide a physical and emotional sanctuary for those navigating the complexities of fertility.

By blending the somatic, breath-centered wisdom of Krystal L. Pinckney (Embodied By Me) with the raw, advocacy-driven truth of Brittney Jackson (Fertility Ain’t Fair), we have created a series that honors the whole person.

We aren't just here to talk.

We are here to move

To learn.

To regulate.

To advocate.

To hold space for the reality of your experience.

What to Expect

This is more than a yoga class.

It is a comprehensive resource circle.

Each session is intentionally curated to help you reconnect with a body that may feel like it’s failing you, while equipping you with the knowledge to navigate the path ahead.

  • Somatic Movement: Trauma-informed gentle yoga and embodiment practices led by Krystal to help regulate the nervous system and release stored tension, grief, and anxiety often held in the hips and heart.
  • Empowered Education: Real-talk and advocacy tools led by Brittney to help you find your voice in clinical settings and understand your rights and options.
  • Community Connection: A safe, in-person environment to meet others who truly "get it," no explanations required and community resources provided.

Our Philosophy

We believe that while Fertility Ain’t Fair, you deserve to feel Embodied.

We provide the mat.

The movement.

The roadmap.

You bring your story.

When the struggle arises, we return to stillness together.

Each session includes a featured guest speaker followed by grounding practices and facilitated integration led by:

Krystal L. Pinckney, MS, C-IAYT

Yoga Therapist+Full Spectrum Doula

Founder, Embodied by Me

Lived expeirence insight, real-time adovacy and truth telling will be shared by:

Brittney Jackson

Podcaster+Storyteller+Women's Health Advocate

Founder, Fertility Ain't Fair

This is not a fitness class.

This is not a lecture series.

This is a supported container.

All bodies and lived experiences are welcomed.
