“We do not become healers. We came as healers. We are.
Some of us are still catching up to what we are.
We do not become storytellers.
We came as carriers of the stories that
we and our ancestors actually lived. We are.
Some of us are still catching up to what we are.
We do not become artists. We came as artists. We are.
Some of us are still catching up to what we are.
We do not become writers.. dancers.. musicians.. helpers.. peacemakers. We came as such. We are.
Some of us are still catching up to what we are.
We do not learn to love in this sense. We came as Love. We are Love. Some of us are still catching up to who we truly are.”
~Clarissa Pinkola Estes

Who are you? Really?
What do you STAND for?
It stretches far beyond what you do for work or what your name is..
If you were to die tomorrow, what would be the words to define you?
In my work with women, I am constantly asked to help women find their way back to themselves after a child, a career change, an end of a marriage, a close call with mortality..
Why do we need an event to ask ourselves these life-giving questions?
