FAQ

It’s Always Good To Ask.

GENERAL

Who founded LOOM?

LOOM was launched as a physical space in 2017 in Los Angeles, founded by Erica Chidi, a doula, educator, and author and Quinn Lundberg, a policy advocate. In 2021, LOOM expanded into its new identity as a digital platform reimagining women’s health education. 

Erica Chidi is the Co-founder and CEO of LOOM. She has helped thousands of women strengthen their ability to care for themselves and others and to advocate for their sexual and reproductive health. Erica is the author of Nurture: A Modern Guide to Pregnancy, Birth, Early Motherhood and Trusting Yourself and Your Body. She has been published in The New York Times and featured in Vogue, Goop, Glamour, The Cut, and Marie Claire.

What is Sexual & Reproductive Health and why does it matter?

At LOOM, our educational programs are designed to help you better understand and navigate the continuum of sexual and reproductive health experiences, from periods through menopause and everything in between. We like to think of it as a continuum because these experiences are ongoing and interconnected. Understanding your period and menstrual cycle can help you better understand things like your fertility or birth control options. Your experience of sex and pleasure will likely evolve over your lifetime, and be directly impacted by things like pregnancy and menopause. The list, or continuum, goes on and on.

Women and birthing people don’t have good, trusted resources for this essential knowledge. There’s a lot of fear, shame, and stigma applied to health experiences and bodily realities that are entirely normal and natural. SRH is the primary healthcare experience for women, so every woman deserves stigma-free, shame-free health education that supports empowered choices.

What makes LOOM’s programs different from other Sexual & Reproductive Health education offerings?

Most Sexual & Reproductive Health information is outdated, vague, biased, or treats your body like a problem to be solved. At LOOM, we offer trustworthy, stigma-free, and actionable information to help you make empowered decisions and feel better.

Our programs weave together a broad spectrum of skills and modalities: sensory and somatic tools, communication skill-building, opportunities for reflection, and frameworks for making personal decisions. It’s not just about taking in information – we care about how you apply what you’re learning, and how you feel along the way in your everyday life.

Our Pregnancy & Postpartum program was developed by a diverse panel of experts, doulas, midwives, and OBGYNs. We also include the wisdom and nuance of real people. And we know that your lived experiences impact your health and choices, so classes within the program cover important considerations like trauma-informed approaches and anti-racist care preferences.
