Women’s Circle was founded in 2017. Feeling a need for authentic, inclusive healing spaces, we decided to create it for ourselves. We craved a space where we could connect with our inner wisdom in sisterhood on a regular basis. We dreamt of a healing space that was filled with ritual and tradition, in a new modern way where all women could show up exactly as we were.
