A gentle, compassionate community where women heal. We recognize that many women today feel out of balance, disconnected from their true selves. That's why we advocate for an embodied way of living that harmoniously integrates mind, body, and heart. Our approach is rooted in ancient wisdom, female archetypes, historical insights, and cutting-edge neuroscience. We create a nurturing space and offer workshops, seminars and sessions; knowledge and learning that enables everyone who identifies as a woman to feel whole and connected with herself.

I raised three kids in the 6 years break. I wrote a lot, mostly to make sense of my diminishing sense of self. I also consulted in a few startups on flexible schedules on projects that excite me and are my strength - branding, product marketing, go-to-market plans, hiring and setting up of client/ customer servicing teams. I also researched alternative ways of education - ranging from homeschooling to radial unschooling, from Montessori to Reggio Emilia. Later I spent a year as the parent counsellor in a child centered Reggio Emilia school called The Atelier for families who want to parent in a child led philosophy. I think the 6 years spent in attending to a home of 3 infants and learning to raise them in ways that challenged the narrative, has been my biggest time of growth. The journey of understanding the sense of self was initiated during this time , and that clarity has served me whenever I needed to take decisions. I have traversed slow, but that has ensured I am on the direction that I want to be.
