Create transformative women’s circles – with authenticity and heart.
Together is a self-paced, soulful training to help you create brave, beautiful spaces in your community (without waiting until you feel “ready”).
Ignite the fire that’s already within you because…
Women’s circles have the power to change lives.
Imagine women gathering because of YOU – sharing stories, crying, laughing, feeling seen. You hold the space. You created it. That’s the kind of magic that Together teaches you to make.
“I was already a meditation teacher and Naturopath, and I knew that I wanted to bring circles to the work that I offered, but I was holding myself back. This training brought new offerings to my business but a new depth and richness to my 1:1 practice."
– Erin Bailey

A women’s circle is a place for women to gather with intention. In these spaces the masks come off, it’s a no-bullshit zone and women get to show up as their fully expressed selves. Circles often include rituals to mark rites of passages, or to honour the changing seasons and cycles of life. There is usually a theme and women are invited to share stories and wisdom around the topic. Others listen deeply and don’t offer advice or rescuing. All feelings and expressions are welcome in circle. It’s a window of time outside of ordinary reality and women leave with their emotional and spiritual cups overflowing.
WHAT’S HOLDING YOU BACK?
I’ve never even sat in a women’s circle before, how can I facilitate them?
That’s okay. These practices are in your blood and bones and you don’t have to be perfect. Many women have completed Together and started facilitating circles without having the opportunity to attend them.
I have massive imposter syndrome and don’t think I know enough.
I hear you. This training will fill any knowledge gaps you have and I’m determined to help you feel more confident after you complete Together. We will tackle the mind-fuckery of imposter syndrome because unfortunately far too many women struggle with this feeling.
I’m comparing myself with other facilitators. I don’t look, speak, act, or dress like they do.
I am passionate about encouraging women to access the wellspring of their own power within. I will remind you of your own gifts, and the fact that your unique qualities will make your circles authentic and interesting.
I don’t know if I am spiritual enough. What if I can’t hold rituals? I don’t understand anything about the moon phases, astrology, or *gasp* I haven’t even read Women Who Run with the Wolves.
No problem, I haven’t read that book either. The ALMIGHTY WOMEN’S CIRCLE GODDESS is not going to strike us down. I teach circle from a non-dogmatic perspective. You are enough.
If I do this scary thing, will anyone actually show up to my circles?
That’s why I’ve designed this training to include business modules that will help you with marketing and selling in a way that doesn’t make you feel sick. It’s all well and good to know how to facilitate a circle, but I also want to support you to get women to come along!
I'm really busy, I’m not sure if I can manage to study.
I have made this training with busy women in mind. It is chunked down into bite size modules. It’s engaging and interlaced with storytelling. My hope is that you enjoy taking the time to yourself to move through Together. And with lifetime access, you can always return to the materials.
“I can’t afford it”
I get it. Sometimes it’s not going to be the right time. I trust you will make the right decision for you. If you are worried about the investment, I believe in this training so much that I’ve included a money back guarantee within 14 days of purchase. I’ve also designed Together to include business modules, because I want you to be able to create supplementary income from your circles and get paid for doing work you love.
Look, I already know you are fucking phenomenal!
I’m not here to convince you of your inadequacies. The vision I hold is women feeling more powerful, not less.
I’m here to kickstart your confidence and provide support so you do the damn thing!
You can keep thinking and dreaming about running circles, or you can start.
Uncovering your magic as a circle facilitator will create ripple effects that flow onto your relationships and your experience of being a woman in this world.
Can you quiet down all the “what if’s”, to consider that women’s circles just might change your life too?

I’ve been a women’s circle facilitator for 5 years and have run over 100 circles in that time, learning a shitload along the way. I’m passionate about debunking circle stereotypes, showing women that they don’t have to pretend to be someone they are not.
I also have a background in communications, marketing, event management, and business mentoring – which I bring to this training.
I don’t want to teach you facilitation skills and leave you high and dry when it comes to promoting your events.
Over 300 women have trusted me to teach them about women’s circles so far and I know that once you come out the other side of Together, EVEN IF YOU HAVE NEVER SAT IN CIRCLE BEFORE, you will feel confident and inspired.

No, there is no formal accreditation attached and I have consciously chosen to remain independent. If you finish the training, you will receive a certificate of completion and can be listed on the Together Circle Facilitator Directory.
Together is a self-paced training that you can join any time.
There are 8 hours of pre-recorded video classes and downloadable written material that you can complete at your own pace.
All core videos have the option of being watched with captions.
There are also 8 pre-recorded guest masterclasses to motivate and inspire you in your circle practice.
I teach circle from a non-religious, non-dogmatic perspective. I am focused on sharing the foundations of circle principles, so you can apply them to your own spiritual lens, passions, interests and cultural background. Above anything, my circles are about connection and story sharing.
For both women who want to start a circle for personal enrichment / development, to those who will be adding women’s circles to their new or established business.
If you have a business, you might be a birth or postpartum doula, midwife, childbirth educator, menstrual cycle educator, perinatal mental health professional such as a counselor or therapist, women’s health professional such as a physio or naturopath, yoga and meditation teacher, creative artist or writer. You may also already hold women’s circles and want to extend your knowledge and skill set.
It can be scary to take the leap and do something new, outside of your comfort zone or to step into your magic and fully own it. I did 10 nervous poops before my first circle. I can still remember how I felt the first 20 times I held a circle. Sometimes I get nervous even now. I can guarantee you will leave this training feeling more confident than you did when you started but that doesn’t mean you won’t be uncomfortable the first few times you facilitate. Having nervous feelings makes us human.
I will personally respond to any comments and questions within the training and love to support students as they work towards starting their circles.
Students often comment how generous I am with my answers within the training.

No. Together is a self-paced training that you can complete from anywhere in the world.
If you can dedicate 1 hour per week, you will finish the core component of Together in 8 weeks.
The training is chunked down into smaller parts (no video is over 20 minutes in length), and you can come back to it time and time again.
The aim is to feel accomplished, even when you only manage to watch one 10 minute class a day.
The pre-recorded 8 guest masterclasses are an additional 8 hours of content. They are not compulsory to complete.
Consider these classes your ongoing professional development and an opportunity to deepen your circle knowledge.
No. Please note that I use mother-centered language and talk about motherhood, running a business as a mother and have a focus on motherhood based rites of passages. I have received feedback from other women who are childfree – that this course remained engaging and relevant to them.
You are absolutely welcome! No circle experience necessary, this training is for beginners to those that want to deepen their circle practice.
Previous Together Facilitators have started their own after completing this course, without ever sitting in a circle before then.
I am passionate about supporting women in business and have mentored 100+ women in this capacity. I consider the emotional, practical and spiritual impact of running a business and infuse this perspective into the training. I have included the most important things to know when it comes to adding circles to your professional offerings.
There’s a vast range of possibilities! You can run weekly or monthly circles. You can apply circle principles and run larger scale workshops or retreats.
As a guide, some years I have earned $2,000, and others I’ve earned $30,000 extra income from running circles – depending on my capacity and how frequently I hold them. It does vary and I don’t want to promise the financial aspect, as everyone’s businesses will be different.
I would hope that you would see the return on your course investment within 5 circles. This is a guide and not a guarantee. Of course, the supplementary income of circles is just one benefit of doing this training.
There is a place within Together where you can introduce yourself and share contact details.
Under every class you can leave comments, ask questions and interact with other participants.
Previous students have connected externally on social media, and some have collaborated and co-facilitated circles with each other, which I encourage!
There is no additional online group (like a Facebook page) to join. Conversations are welcome within the training itself.
Yes, I have allocated a percentage of enrolments for scholarship and subsidised positions.
