Holding Space Through Transition
We are all constantly changing, navigating transition, becoming more or less of who we are. This is the nature of life: to begin as one thing and become another, to start as one thing and end up something different altogether—over and over and over.
Tending Becomings is a project of care—created by Miles (they/them)—rooted in offering support to people navigating transitions of birth, death and the space between—especially marginalized folks who have been historically and intentionally excluded from care spaces and services. Through this project I offer nonmedical emotional, educational, practical and physical support as a doula to folks experiencing a transition. I also make zines that are available to download (digital) or buy (physical copy). Please see my offerings page to see my up-to-date offerings.
My offerings are open to everyone but center and prioritize Queer and Trans Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (QTBIPOC), as well as other marginalized communities.
*No one turned away for lack of funds
Check out the Guide To Care Mapping, a workbook zine for exploring your needs and creating ideas of support you could use. Free to download or a $5 physical copy!
About Miles (they/them)
Hi, I’m Miles (they/them)! I am a trans nonbinary, queer, mixed Black and white, and neurodivergent writer, artist, and care companion based in the Bay Area. I am in awe of the way humans change, stretch, grow, collapse, gather, grieve, and become. I believe deeply in the power of community care as a salve to the oppression we continuously survive that is carried out by systems of capitalism, colonialism, racism, transphobia, queerphobia, and more.
