A space to embrace abused and battered women and encourage self-help planning.

Embodied Healing, Intergenerational Healing

What It Is
A supportive circle where women explore how they got here and how they're going to change their outcome. Each session will offer an opportunity for women to share and support each other, with a focus on boosting self-esteem, gaining clarity, and camaraderie.
Who It’s For
For women who are going through or have survived an abusive relationship or situation, and those who feel diminished from emotional or physical abuse. Many women who are in abusive situations stay silent. Sometimes being quiet can help if you're planning to escape the situation. I learned to embrace the silence when I was stuck in a chaotic situation.

I am a survivor of a 16‑year abusive marriage. Even now, people still ask me what took so long to leave. Because of that, I understand the questions you stay away from when you’re talking to battered women. I know the importance of sitting in silence and simply being embraced. I lived through years of bruises and a broken heart, learning the same painful lesson over and over before I finally left. I know how much it matters to just be there for someone who’s in the midst of it, without asking why she’s still there or what she’s waiting for. Most people don’t realize that the things they say aren’t actually helpful. But I do. And that’s why I show up with understanding, patience, and the kind of support I once needed myself.
