Jessica Lipps (MA Regent College, BA Trinity International University) is a creator & mother. She finds meaning through theology, embodied ways of knowing and creativity. She loves to listen for life in movement, mothering, and the stories from which we live, particularly when it involves loss — and restoration. This, for her, is education.

Mothering has been a place of inquiry and research — and also a place of recovering play, connection with the wilderness, and becoming a child all over again in the loving arms and heart of the Divine. Hence the name Bird & Babe: the stratification of and connection between both relationships: mother & child, Love & a human heart.

Jessica is currently a PhD candidate at Simon Fraser University within the Faculty of Arts Education where she is researching narrative and embodied ways of knowing within a mother-to-child relationship, couched in a theological framework of being human. She writes, lives, and educates with the emerging theme that all of life is gift and grace — particularly in the grit of it.

Bird & Babe is dedicated to nourishing and empowering mothers on a soulful journey of change — and creating more meaningful and significant connections with their children.
