The Hive Collective
A Private Member Association
The Hive Collective is a group of women, men, and families who are reclaiming our sovereignty over our bodies, births, babies, families, finances, and future. We collaborate with one another in sharing ideas, information, and inspiration that improves our wellness, heals our bodies, strengthens our families, and creates a community that brings hope for the future. We are governed by Natural Law in which The Golden Rule to do no harm is our guiding principle.
Our Mission
Our mission is to collaborate on safer and saner alternatives for pregnancy and birth care, wellness, and prosperity so that more families thrive thus building stronger communities that benefit all of society.
Our Vision
We envision an empowered community of sovereign men and women who engage with one another in honesty and integrity, building healthier families and stronger communities beginning with the births of their babies free from obstetric violence and birth-related trauma.
Our Purpose
To build a community of people who protect each other's health information, freedom to choose holistic health care, and to engage with one another in ways that encourages prosperity and wellness in ourselves and our loved ones.
Our Approach
The Hive Collective is a private membership association that evolved from its origins as The Harrigan Hive. The Hive was an open, friendly, and supportive community where all were welcome to join, share, ask and answer, and connect with a traditional birth companion for their childbirth journey. From there, we created the private Hive Community which serves as the central hub for our Collective's connection and communication. In this private community, we still talk about birth, but we're also expanding to all areas of sovereign living.
Our focus is on reclaiming our sovereignty over our bodies, births, babies, families, finances and futures through mutual education, ethical exchanges, and guarding one another's privacy. We believe that wellness starts in the womb and that how we birth matters. We believe in the power of collaboration. And we believe in the necessity of community where we are expected to take personal responsibility for our choices and our actions, and to lovingly respect one another in all our variations.
As we continue to grow, we look forward to expanding our sovereignty and increasing our prosperity through mutually beneficial exchanges and welcoming more members who can share their wisdom and knowledge to help us all become better stewards of this epic gift we call life.
