The level of preparation and care did not go unnoticed. You didn't simply invite us to participate; you created an experience that allowed us to show up and focus on what God called us to do.

You set the bar incredibly high, Crystal, and after experiencing what APA created today, I can only imagine where God is taking you and the great work you are doing next.

When a friend unexpectedly shared the Maternity Equity Experience with me, I knew God was speaking. The experience, the information provided, and ultimately being chosen as the Grand Prize winner were all confirmations of His hand at work. It is truly in Abba's nature to manifest His presence and provision in ways that remind us He sees and knows exactly what we need.

Meet Your Host

Crystal Harkless is a social entrepreneur, event strategist, and purpose-driven leader with over 10 years of experience supporting CEOs, organizations, and large-scale initiatives.

Her work has always centered around creating meaningful experiences—but this vision is personal.

After recognizing the gap between medical information and emotional and spiritual support for women navigating motherhood, Crystal created The Maternal Equity Experience to bring both into one space.

Her heart is to ensure women feel informed, supported, and empowered—without having to choose between faith and understanding.
