'Curious about the stories we tell ourselves, and the tales we tell others'
#journeytotheheartofbravery
JOURNEY TO THE HEART OF BRAVERY
invites women for a deep dive
into our personal and professional biographies, investigating the stories we tell ourselves,
the tales we tell others and the cultural narratives
we weave in-between.
This workshop took place on 30th March 2019
Exploring the territory between our personal challenges and how they play out in the many spheres of our lives, we will navigate the tantalising terrain of light and dark, joy and sorrow,
courage and fear.
This journey was a 12 hour immersion, held on 30th March 2019
We offered women of all ages an opportunity for a deep dive,
cutting through the ‘I’m fine’ into the heart of connection and authenticity.

Here's what participants thought of our immersion: 30th March 2019
CHANGING STORIES, TRANSFORMING LIVES
“This work is beautifully strung together in a way that enabled me to access deeper parts of me in a safe way than I anticipated. The venue, the tasks, the wisdom and encouragement of a circle of women, the holding of the space by two talented facilitators have enabled big shifts in my self-perception to take place. These mean that I am indeed stepping into my bravery in the outside world. The confidence enhancing effects of the work will roll out way past the 12 hours spent on site. “

.“It wasn’t just the unexpectedly glorious weather or the fabulous wild gem of a site that made this day so beautiful. It was the ethos, principles and experience of Rosalind and Aoife, who created a safe, creative, thoughtful and fun space to be in. They brought together a group of women of all ages, with different stories and experiences, and helped us all to feel valued, respected and wise. We were challenged in different ways, played and laughed, and joined in our own created rituals. It felt ancient and modern, a timeless gathering of women, the sort of gathering of women that has been happening for thousands of years. By the end of the day several of us were getting ready to move in and live on the land together in this brave community for ever! Beccy Golding
“Journey to the Heart of Bravery was a wonderful experience, which I would highly recommend. Held in a beautiful setting, well-facilitated exercises with a wonderful group of women. It was easy to develop trust in such a safe environment which made the practical exercises useful. Lots of useful learning, great opportunities to share experiences with like-minded women and it was also a great deal of fun.” Nichole Villeneuve
“It was a beautiful weekend in an unusual environment with a bunch of wonderful women. I really enjoyed discovering more about the heart of bravery and all its shapes and sizes. Being far away from the everyday and not having my phone with me at any time.“ Nina Koehler
