Join the Movement
Hello Beautiful!
I want to share a story with you and if it resonates I hope you will join me.
Most of my life I have struggled with my relationships with women. I’ve had girlfriends who have lied to me, stolen boyfriends, talked about me behind my back. I have found myself often distrusting, judging, comparing, nitpicking...the list goes on.
Somewhere along my spiritual education in my 20s I was taught that the separation of women from each other is not an accident. It was intentionally designed to keep us from coming together to be a unified force. When women connect there is a great power and deep sense of remembering.
But understanding this and having the experience are two different things. It has taken me a long time to build healthy relationships with other women. The shift has been in learning that no matter how different my life seems from another woman, when I get to know her I discover that at the core we are the same.
Since this summer I have been focusing on Story Medicine as the tool to help us reconnect to our innate power and to each other.
We are in a time of great upheaval and a time of awakening. It’s a calling to remember. And it starts with us women. When we can look at our sisters without judgement and condemnation. When we can look at ourselves without shame and guilt. The world will be healed.
I’m reaching out to you because l know you get this and you are in a position of influence that can make a truly positive impact in the world.
Here are two ways I’d love for you to join me and the mission:
Story Circles
Guest on Story of Her
Story Circles are an ancient and simple, yet profound, practice of women coming together to share in a safe space. Each circle has a different theme and oracle cards as prompts for sharing our stories. There is no crosstalk, no feedback, and what’s shared in circle stays in circle. The medicine comes from the safe place to share and the practice of deep listening.
My vision is to set up Story Circles around the globe. Where there is a request l will either go and/or share resources for other women to host their own. It would be an honor to have you participate in one in your area and share with your community.
Additionally l am interviewing accomplished and influential women on my vid series, Story of Her, utilizing a similar format to Story Circles. We will use oracle cards to pull a prompt to share your story. Through sharing your truth other women will hear and discover that you are not unlike them. That as women we are on a similar journey even if from the outside our worlds look completely different. Your vulnerability and experience has the power to heal.
Together we can harness the strength and wisdom of women. Together we can utilize the strength of numbers to make a difference and positive impact. We cannot wait for politics or another patriarchal system to solve the problem when at the heart of the problem is the disconnect from the Great Mother herself.
Please join this incredibly timely and important mission of women coming together to heal.
It would be an honor to have you on the show and to share your story, your wisdom, with the women who so need to hear your truth so they can access their own. To sign up for an interview time please use my online calendar. l will travel to you so just let me know where you are located.
To get involved with hosting a Story Circle let me know some dates and location that would work for you and your community. The circles are intimate and can be between 5-20 women.
To attend a Story Circle and share with your community you can register and check out dates at cometostorycircle.com.
Thank you so much for the work you do and being a positive radiance into the world!

Rachel
