The Art Of Holding Circle ~ Facilitator Training in Sacred Space-Holding for Women
A Calling. A Responsibility. A Devotion.
To hold a circle is to hold the world still - just long enough for a woman to hear her own truth.
This is a training for women who feel the call to create sacred space.
To gather others in safety, warmth, and authenticity.
To offer more than just candles and cushions - but deep presence, trauma-aware space, and the kind of listening that touches the soul.
Whether you’re new to circle holding or have been walking beside women for years, this training will meet you at your depth. Together, we explore what it means to hold sacred space in a way that is embodied, ethical, and real.
🌸 My Path with Circle Work
For over seven years, I’ve been holding spaces for women - from small gatherings in living rooms to large retreats, rites of passage, red tents, and seasonal ceremonies. I’ve sat in circle with mothers, daughters, survivors, birth workers, seekers, and sisters.
I’ve witnessed the breaking open, the rising, the remembering.
This work isn’t just something I do - it’s how I live.
And over the years, I’ve learned that how we hold space matters.
That intention is not enough - we must hold with integrity, sensitivity, and a deep understanding of the nervous system, trauma, and emotional safety.
This training brings together all I’ve learned - through practice, devotion, training, and lived experience - to support you in stepping into this sacred role with confidence and care.
