"I found my way back to myself": women on their Almanac year
Stories from women in our first circles, 2024–2026.
D. Recent Participant“I learned to freely speak up in online groups in the Almanac. Because it was the same cohort over many months, I eased into a group who I began to trust with my inner world as parts of me came out of hiding. Those parts needed a safe space to come out of corners to be seen. When those unseen, hesitant parts were met with warmth and acceptance, it was as if they could materialize and no longer be a ghost.
As I saw my Self mirrored back to me in the group's open-heartedness and joy at her candor, I became more willing to be authentically me in other spaces. In the year since joining the Almanac, I can see that the experience was another step in the unveiling of my true Self, which is ongoing and ever will be.”
J. Recent Participant“Whenever women are together in a safe space, conversations get deep & personal pretty fast. I love that about us. I'm not much for small talk, but can spend hours talking about life and its challenges. There is no pressure, you can just listen and take part that way. It is not about performance, it's about the real you, and how you become more of who you are. I think we can all use some roadsigns, as the real us tends to get lost along the way of life. The conversations in the Almanac are those signposts.”

R. Recent Participant“The Women’s Almanac has been one of the best gifts I’ve gifted myself. It’s shaped my year enhancing my energy alongside seasonal markers. I’ve learned from being in community with women from different cultures and ages - to realize that we all face the same challenges- stronger together. Through shared experience and conversation I’ve developed lasting friendships that I know will serve me well.
Each facilitator has opened another channel of personal discovery. Emily’s EFT was extremely powerful. It’s given me a tool to reexamine my personal relationship with my mother- to revaluate what’s mine and what’s been inherited. I’ve been able to come back to it and release energy that’s been trapped in my body.”
