Listen to Your Ancestors Bring Their Voices to the Page

to Oct 20

Listen to Your Ancestors Bring Their Voices to the Page

Follow a practice with Lisa Weinert and Jamia Wilson to bring awareness to the body before you begin writing, and learn the power in telling your story.

When we sit down to write, we bring many histories with us, in the form of identity markers, family members, ethnicities, religions, race, geography, and more. Let's take a breath here and inquire: Who else is present?

Our ancestors—whether from our own genetic line or any other influence in our lives—can bring inspiration, direction, connection, and belonging. In this weekend retreat we explore who we bring with us to the page—and how they can help.

We listen closely and gain understanding of how these voices inform the words that come through us and onto the page. As we learn that we are not alone, these muses, protectors, and in some cases threats, can also help us distinguish which is our true voice.

This intimate immersion provides structure and resources to help us meet our goals in a vibrant and diverse community of writers. Together we learn to surrender to the story that needs to be told, including the ones we’ve inherited.

Join inspiring women leaders who want to spark hopeful change–at home, at work, and in their communities–for a weekend of deep conversations and meaningful experiences.

These times call for talk: critical conversations about the pressing issues roiling the world. The kind of talk that plumbs hard truths and also reaches across differences to create connection. The kind of talk that is the antidote to breakdown and the stimulus for breakthrough.

This conference is an invitation to talk, to listen, and to pose and answer questions that women across generations and around the world are asking: How do we redefine power and practice it with compassion, even as we stand strong for rapidly eroding rights? How do we keep joy and creativity alive while facing simultaneous existential threats? How do we care for the suffering in our own neighborhoods and across the globe, and still find energy to dream a new way into being?

Join us for conversations and panel discussions between inspiring conference speakers and participants—about our work, our families, our communities, our despair and grief, our big ideas and bold plans. Come to learn, to be in community, to rest and care for yourself, so you can leave refreshed and ready to do power differently at home and in the world.
