Upsize Depth
Ever walked away from a few hours spent with friends and felt a little depleted? As though the conversation didn’t really go anywhere worthwhile or meaningful? As though the same topics were covered with the same almost automated responses? The who did what, and who wore what while the only thing filling was your glass of wine?
Do you ever grow tired of the usual surface banter where there’s a lot of talking but not much said? Mostly the same old comments that leave you feeling tired and perhaps a little bored?
Maybe they’re not the right people for you. Or maybe they are but we’re not asking the right questions. What if we started with sincerity and thoughtfulness rather than polite small talk? What if our questions ignited conversations about our true passions, our inspirations, our deepest fears and our grandest dreams? Our knock backs and set-backs and who we feel we are now? Our beliefs, our core values and our simple pleasures?
What lights you up? Let’s talk about that. Who did you want to be as a child? Let’s talk about that. What’s the kindest thing anyone has ever done for you? Or the most influential teacher you had at school and what did you learn from them? What’s the one book that totally changed your path in life?
Who was your most passionate lover? Or what was the birth of your first child like? And when was the last time you felt truly unstoppable? When was the last time you were so beautifully engaged in what you were doing that time felt like it stood still?
What rituals do you use to set yourself up for the day? And where would you like to be in 5 years, 10 years, next week? If money was no object, what would you do right now?
This is where I want to be. Where true beauty reveals itself. Where our authentic natures come forth, we open our hearts and embrace real connection. Everything before this is just airbrushed, filtered and pre-planned versions of ourselves. I want the un-cut, the raw and the deeply fulfilling. Where we create an environment of real support and a welcoming space where we can raise each other up and honour the different and beautiful stories we all carry.
The irony of it all is that our souls naturally crave connection, it’s one of the ways we thrive, and yet we’ve collectively created a world that favours filtered pictures of our highlighted lives over the uncovered and raw data. Our outward appearances cleverly hide what we want hidden for fear of being open, of being vulnerable and of being judged.
The good news is the sisterhood is here. It always has been. We just need to uncover it. Reconnect to it. Take off the layers of fear and replace them with love and support. And welcome the endless opportunities of growth and learning from one another.
We are all one. All part of the same process. We all have stories of heartache and joy, of adventure and passion. Or motherhood and transformation. These beautiful stories are our collective strength and our lives should be enriched by them and the community of women sharing them. Raising us, guiding us and inspiring us.
That’s where you will find me. Embracing and growing my tribe. And putting my energy into peeling off the layers to wholehearted, empowered and deeply satisfying exchanges. Where each soul partakes and feels completely supported. Where we all walk away feeling like the unconquerable warriors that we know we are and always have been. As mothers, daughters, sisters and lovers. As creators.
So come join us as we reconnect to this collective power. The doors is always open.
