Story Wise Women

women's experiences are different, how we see the world, how we are treated in the world, how we make sense of the world are unique and diverse. women's stories need to be shared, explored, celebrated and felt. women's voices need places where they can be practised and strengthened, women's hearts need places to be held and nourished, women's souls need places to laugh and connect. storytelling enables us to make sense of our lives in a way that brings peace and hope to the events that have shaped us, as we then shape the events into a story. when we share a story, as part gift, part message, we learn and affirm who we are and what we believe, and we come know ourselves in a deeper way. the stories are funny and light hearted, painful and sad, uplifting and moving. the atmosphere is affirming, encouraging, accepting and warm. we leave full to the brim with the knowledge that we have participated in an ancient ritual that is modern and timeless. we leave knowing in our bones tha
