New Years Resolutions Nashville Womens Circle

For the past few years, my dreams have offered me a word for the new year. A few years ago, it was "enough." "Encircled" and "engaged" have anchored my resolutions, too.

Based on the book Birthing Ourselves into Being, by Baraka Elihu, this weekly women’s circle has the potential to make your dreams crystal clear, seriously & sweetly upgrade your self-care, and create lasting bonds with other women.
