Women’s circles aren’t just comforting—they’re biologically protective. We are wired for tribe. And in a world pulling us toward disconnection, this kind of connection is not a luxury—it’s survival.

PS Society gave me back to myself. For the first time in a long time, I could show up without a mask—no performance, no pressure, just presence. They didn’t just see my skills; they saw me. And they didn’t ask me to do more than I could—they held space for what I could give, and celebrated it. In a world that so often demands polish, they reminded me that being real is more than enough.

If you were to sit in my office for a day, you might be surprised at how often loneliness walks in disguised. Sometimes it’s bold—someone says, “This one hour with you is the only conversation I have all week.” Sometimes it’s quiet—hidden in a client’s hesitation to join a group after moving to a new city, or in the ache of an empty nest, or in the way a woman going through a divorce wonders where all “her people” went.
