[Sliding Scale Donations] Send whatever you can and if you can't send anything, your presence and participation is enough. Venmo: @Dakota-Quackenbush. Donate whatever you want, if at all.
Take my hand and join me in the Truth Club.
You will need to be cozy, on video, and in a private space where you can bring all of yourself. Don't come to the call under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Know that by joining, you are choosing to be present with us and turning off all the distractions.
What it is:
[This is a time we put aside in our week to move out of our comfort zone. You only grow if you are willing to feel awkward and uncomfortable. Come bear witness to the experience of being present with other women in who they uniquely are. This is an opportunity to co-create community and to be yourself.]
What it isn't:
[Truth Club isn't a therapy group or coaching session, although you may receive benefits similar to what you'd experience in those spaces. In Truth Club, we aren't trying to get anywhere, we're aiming to be okay with what is. This is a safe place that is confidential and respectful where you will not be pressured towards any decisions.]
Who am I:
[I'm the founder of Authentic Bay Area. I'm a coach and group facilitator who cares about making you feel seen and heard. My professional background and extensive training for the last 10+ years is in addiction, mental health, trauma, interpersonal dynamics, social health, mindset reprogramming, and human potential. I largely facilitate authentic relating, circling, and t-groups. My focus is reducing the stigma surrounding mental health and making authentic, vulnerable connections the norm. I regularly close my eyes to connect to my emotions and physical sensations. When I'm not facilitating connection, I can be found writing poetry or dancing any time a beat comes on.]
Who is it for:
[Anyone who identifies as a woman, desires a space where they can reveal and process whatever is alive for them while being held, and who wants to co-create a sacred space where they can build relationships with other women over time who are showing up to speak with depth instead of at an informational level.]
Why am I doing this:
[I love being a woman. I love women. I love the spaces I can go with women when men aren't in the room. I love the tears, the anger, the frustration, the joy, the pleasure, the sadness, and all of the other forms of radical self expression and embodiment that comes with being a woman when we get out of our heads and into our hearts.]
If any of this speaks to you,
I want to encourage you to try out this space.
My desire is to continue this as a weekly container where we can let our feminine freak flags fly.
