About this Event
IN-PERSON CIRCLE GATHERINGS FOR THE WOMAN FEELING THE SACRED CALL TO CHANGE
Your life feels like it's constantly moving beneath your feet. No solid ground to stand on.
The foundations you built that once felt so solid and familiar now feel fluid. You are feeling like a stranger to yourself and sometimes you look at yourself in the mirror and do not recognise the woman staring back.
The roles that defined you now feel like badly fitting costumes you want to remove.
The dreams you set aside to build the life everyone expected are stirring with a new urgency.
Breathe deeply, my love.
You are not losing your mind. You are just shedding what no longer serves you as you enter, what can be, the most powerful season of your life.
This is not breakdown. This is breakthrough.
WHAT IS THE UNRAVELLING?
Gate 1 is the first passage in The Great Surrender Circles—a series of 8 sacred monthly gatherings for women navigating their menopause transformation.
In this opening circle, we explore:
- When everything feels like it is shifting
- The sacred art of coming undone
- Why your body is speaking up now
- Permission to not have it all together
What is really happening: Your soul has outgrown the container of who you have been. The identity you carefully constructed was scaffolding that helped you build a life. Now it's time to step beyond it so you can inhabit your life more fully.
WHAT HAPPENS IN THIS CIRCLE
Sacred Opening Ceremony
Grounding practice and circle creation. We transition from the outside world into sacred space.
Teaching: The Sacred Art of Coming Undone
Wisdom from The Great Surrender on why coming undone is not failure—it's the conscious release of what no longer serves you to make space for what wants to emerge.
Embodiment Practices
Body scan and somatic work to locate where you are "holding it together" and practice the wisdom of conscious unraveling.
Deep Sharing Circle
Each woman shares her experience with these themes. We witness without fixing, advise without judging. This is sacred space for truth-telling.
Integration Ritual & Tools
Personal reflection, commitment to practice, closing ceremony.

For each circle you attend, you will read the relevant chapter beforehand. Take your time with it. Notice what resonates, what challenges you, where you feel resistance. Bring your questions, your insights, your truth.
