Empowerment Circles

An Empowerment Circle is a group of women who have completed the Woman Within® Training Weekend and then come together for the purpose of supporting, encouraging and challenging one another on their journey of personal growth. It is a place to nourish our spirits and strengthen our hearts, a place to be seen, heard, challenged and accepted by a circle of women as we speak of our joys and our sorrows.

To become part of an E-Circle, a woman must first go through the initial guided E-Circle programme. The focus thereof is to participate in exercises and to learn tools that will assist each woman in developing communication and listening skills as well as provide her with the sense of safety that she needs to be open and honest with herself and the group. These exercises are designed to prepare women to learn greater emotional self-awareness and to be a part of a circle in a safe, open and honest way.
