"By gathering people into a circle where we can all look into each other’s eyes, using some simple structure, principles and practices to help hold the conversation, and being intentional about the way we engage with each other, we can dramatically shift our conversations. I’ve seen it happen again and again. People engage more intentionally than they normally do, conflict is resolved in constructive ways, and there is honesty and authenticity in the way we show up for each other". - Heather Plett
inspired words
"Delicate golden threads glisten as they entwine and connect us while we listen Here we are safe Here we are comfortable
Heartache tumbles and spills from our lips as tears swell in our eyes and the stories settle down low inside our hips This is where we shield our lives Here we are safe Here we are held Women coming together in need Females wanting a creed Acknowledgment dancing on the faces who heed Here we are safe Here we are loved This is the feminine journey in time Not wanting to be feel less or low A desire to move forward to strive, to exceed, to grow Here we are safe Here we share Sisters held gently within the rim of a cup while love fills this chalice we dive in releasing malice, all hatred, our tears and our fears Here we are safe Here we are heard The connection all powerful the circle is strong, no judgement, no fixing there is no wrong Here we are safe Here we can just be I think - therefore I am I grow - therefore I am the circle"

In a loose circle we sit, lounge really, on plump, soft sofas and large ottomans Surrounded by an array of colourful pillows and textured throws.
We didn't bring our story, our colour, or race. Upon us gently falls a feeling of grace. Together we cut the ties that had hung on us as we entered this place.
Swiftly and surely, imaginary swords removed these weights and we swept them off the vast veramhah back out into the universe.
We were ready to be held here in comfort, in safety, in this sweet place.
Joining our spirits, listening to each others hearts chatting quietly, a few sobs of relief, and a couple of laughs. We are equal with our peers, supported and held up high.
As the evening creates its own energy, the angels emerge in us and we learn to fly. Giving thanks for all we have, all we will be and can be Acknowledging the lessons we have yet t learn is not easy But to be held in this place, so tenderly and secure I trust myself to move forward with the confidence and courage the circle has given me.
