Let's broaden the narrative around women's empowerment from the thinking, logic and strategic capacity of the brain, to the multidimensional ways of knowing through the senses of our body and the field of the whole being. But why? And what would the benefit be…?
The power of The Artist's Way Women's Circles
The Artist's Way is one of those encounters that can circle your life a while before you are even aware, or perhaps ready, to commit to the process. Women come to my Circles with stories of having started the book, only to abandon it in the third chapter. Some were lead by a friend, or it popping up on their radar by way of an acquaintance. Others come, having never heard of the book, hardly knowing me or my work, but an instinct - or what I would call 'body knowing'- compels them to join…
Life by the dark of the New Moon
Occasionally your awareness of the Moon might be sparked because of an unusual event like the Strawberry Moon or an Eclipse season.

Forgiveness by the glow of the Full Moon
It’s a Yang energy period in the Lunar cycle meaning it's action and integration time. This is where all things come to light, illuminated and made visible - which makes perfect sense given that the moon is so juicy, ripe and bright in the sky at this time.
