WISDOM COLLECTIVE
Everyone has a story - discover yours in sacred community
The Wisdom Collective is designed as an intimate, sacred community to sustain overburdened women whose curiosity is constantly distracted. Together, we form a sisterhood to reimagine our lives and thrive through our vulnerability, art, nature, and poetic expression.
This sacred space connects you with women who want to grow, grow their writing, feel enriched, exhilarated, and sparked by writing in community. Together, our pens awaken our senses helping us face raw challenges in a new light and cherish each day.
Shared perspectives renew those seeking personal growth and change.
We affirm we are not alone.
Come, rejoice as common threads are woven, then interwoven in invisible threads of deepening friendships. We are privileged to hear legacy stories and follow a new path guided by each pen in this informal privacy.
Tell the story waiting to be told, the one that must be told.
Witness mind shifts for greater fulfillment.
Redirect your energy by examining poetry and art, discover nuances, and picture yourself in calmer waters with ripple effects of creativity and wonder. Be more present by carving this time where you show up with an open mind to unlock doors of change with new writing tools.

"Collage is like a hall of mirrors. Every direction you look, you see something different and visually stimulating.” (Nita Leland)
Do you feel a loss of identity due to empty nesting, a job change, or declining physical health?
Do you find yourself in a caregiving situation that was thrust upon you with or without support to meet and face those challenges?
Has downsizing, or relocation caused by a life event overwhelmed you with choices?
Has the loss of a loved one paralyzed you with inaction?
Are you yearning to experience joy in life once more, more often?
”intention is a state of consciousness, not a goal” - Gary Zukov
If trauma causes physical injury, restoring the body and spirit may come through joy, pleasure, curiosity, novelty, and creation.
Creating art transforms you and collaging allows you to create your own story.
Exploration of the subconscious: Working with images and materials in collage can tap into the subconscious mind. Artists may be drawn to certain images or themes without fully understanding why. Exploring these subconscious impulses can lead to unexpected revelations or interpretations.
Collage often involves working with limitations, such as a limited selection of materials or a specific theme. This can force artists to think creatively and find innovative solutions to artistic challenges, leading to unexpected outcomes.
Embracing accidents: Mistakes or accidents during the collage process can sometimes lead to unexpected beauty or insight. By welcoming these accidents rather than trying to correct them, artists can uncover new possibilities that they may not have considered otherwise.
