Sisterhood is the medicine

My first experience of feeling welcomed as I am was in a women circle. I could not believe that this was really happening: a group of women not faking smiles secretly cursing my beauty? Not gossiping or tearing each other down? Not trying to outsmart each other or finding something to criticise about my outfit? What’s going on?!

For the first time in this life I was greeted with warm embraces and smiles. The women were looking at me in the eyes, acknowledging my presence, remembering my name. My voice was invited and celebrated. My very existence was validated. This was so new for me, I was in complete shock not even sure it was reel. And yet it felt like I was finally home. I cried a lot that day.

This was 4 years ago. I have experienced many circles since in various countries and as I got more comfortable with sisterhood, I truly found myself. When we are held, seen, heard in all our greatness and all our mistakes with compassion, we become invincible. Coming together, learning to relate to one another through the lens of Love instead of fear, we amplify each other’s voice.

I want to live in a world where women lead from their heart. This is why I am offering the online Lunar Women Circles starting next week, so that we can remember together the power to be an embodied Woman.

With Love always,
