More about the Sisterhood of Discovery:
Simply put, the Sisterhood of Discovery online series is a place for women to come together, be fully present with one another and work together to create a life they love!
Held online via zoom every other Monday evening starting January 23rd from 7-8:30pm ET, it is designed to help you bring more mindful intentionality into your life, learning from and being supported by a circle of kindred spirits with whom you can grow.
Each session runs for 90 minutes and will start with an opening ritual/invocation, followed by facilitated discussion and exercises related to the week’s theme. You can sign up for as many as few as you like, but you will receive 20% off if you sign up for all eight at once. All sessions are FREE for Premier members .
This is NOT a course or lecture series but a participatory experience where attendees are encouraged to share and contribute, as much as they feel comfortable.
What to Expect
Each week will include some visualizations, journaling, sharing and discussion around the week’s topic as well as some optional movement (think fun dance breaks meant to move energy through you and release any tension).
No artistic talent or experience necessary. The ‘creativity’ here is more about approaching your life from a creative stand-point and using the support of a community to CREATE the life you most deeply desire.
The sessions are NOT for you if you are scared of new people or experiences and don’t like getting our of your comfort zone, or talking & sharing in a small group setting. Also, you will only get out of the calls as much as you put in, and all participants are asked to make every effort to fully show up for themselves, and for one another, for each session they book.
The circle is held ONLINE via zoom and is also about going deep with a group of kindred spirits in order to awaken inspiration from within, rather than seeking it externally.
We learn from the writings and teachings of Julia Cameron ("The Artist's Way"), Elizabeth Gilbert ("Big Magic"), Glennon Doyle ("Untamed"), Eckhart Tolle ("The Power of Now"), and Brene Brown ("Daring Greatly") — among others.
If you are looking simply to meet new friends or expand your network, the Art-full membership may be more in-line with your desires. (In-person Art-full events are separate and not included in the Sisterhood.)
It’s hard to put into words the magic that happens when women come together in full & authentic support of one another, but I hope you will join us to experience it for yourself!
Sisterhood Guiding Principles
Please make sure you can agree to these guidelines before signing up for any sessions as they represent our ethos:
Be fully present in mind & body — please resist the urge to multi-task. As a sign of respect for yourself and your sisters, please turn off any other unnecessary devices & screens and give yourself the gift of focus.
Cultivate curiosity. The Sisterhood is a safe space of NON-JUDGEMENT (of oneself and others). Nothing said in the circle should be shared outside of this space without permission.
Discussions are for discovery. Ask clarifying questions, but refrain from giving unsolicited advice. Always ask someone if they are open to suggestions before assuming they do.
Lead with empathy. Deep & meaningful relationships are built through empathy, not judgement or sympathy. Find ways to empathize with your sisters and any struggles they may be dealing with.
Differences keep life interesting. If we were all the same, life would be boring. Rather than focusing on the ways we are different (as there are many!), look for similarities and commonalities with your sisters, as there are many of those as well!
Give more than you take and listen more than you talk. Please share openly but also be respectful and considerate of everyone's time. Just because someone is quiet doesn't mean they don't have a lot to say. Leave room even for those who are reticent and remember that everyone's contributions to the circle are valuable.
Sisterhood is a form of therapy but not a replacement for it. Please remember we’re not here to fix one another or even ourselves. Always seek the help and advice of a medical professional as needed.
