Then please reach out to us to express your interest and learn about upcoming Story Circles in your area!

A committed small group experience where 6-8 participants meet for six sessions to share sacred stories about birth, death, and life's pivotal moments. Through deep listening and authentic storytelling, we discover meaning and feel truly seen while building genuine community.

Participants contribute a registration fee to ensure they are committed to the group and will hold space for one another.
