Women on the Edge of Evolution

Spiritual Motherhood: Parenting as an Evolutionary Path of Practice and Activism

Evolutionary educator and mother, Miriam Mason Martineau, argues that the dichotomy many women experience between motherhood and self-actualization needs to be transcended, and motherhood itself needs to be radically re-contexualized within an evolutionary understanding of transformative parenting. In Martineau's own words, "My own experience and study points to the fact that motherhood is now one of the most potent and effective ways to drive evolution forward, both in ourselves, in our children, and subsequently in our world."

Join us for an intimate dialogue with Miriam Martineau, an educator and mother who has dedicated her life to re-defining the traditional limits of motherhood in order to uplift parenting as one of our greatest opportunities for personal growth and spiritual activism. Miriam is an evolutionary visionary who effuses a love for life that few possess. For the past 15 years Miram has studied and researched how parenting can be pursued as a spiritual practice. She is vice-president and faculty member of Next Step Integral, an organization that applies integral consciousness to parenting, education, ecology, and community. Miriam is also a private practice integral psychotherapist, and her interest in peak performance, vitality and leadership building have led her to her work closely with Univera, an emerging international biotech company.
