Her greatest gift is curating beautiful safe spaces of ritual and art to consciously cultivate creativity, confident expression and deep connection to our hearts and truths. The Woken Women community has become a source of strength, inspiration, solace and profound healing in the lives of all the sisters who co-create it once a sister circle is opened its power never ends.
