WORDS FROMĀ OTHER WOMEN
transforming ourselves, to transform the world
āBefore joining in 2021 I was waking up in a panic attack every morning. one of the biggest (factors) was my contorted relationship to the authority I felt I didn't have over my own life. I joined The Womb Room to fix my āPCOSā. Well, I did that and got so much more!ā

"You have helped me come to know my true size, my depths, and myself as a woman through good care, your poignant reflections, witnessing me and all else that happens in here. This space has gone beyond me, and I with it."
Ā -Margaret
"Being here is like sitting around a fire... we are all soaking up and sharing wisdom. It's a place where we learn how to witness each other, and how to hold others and ourselves well."
-Rosie
"In the past IĀ felt a hero story that says that feeling peace in this current time would be bad or wrongā¦ cultivating my internal union has made it possible for peace to be a true priority, and as Iāve welcomed ease into my life, it has showed up in the ease of my intimate relationships. Thank you from the depths of me for changing my life. This work you share is liberatory and I feel so lucky to have landed here."Ā
-Karin

-Bryn
"Iāve peeled back my once buckled desires. Iāve burned old forms of what I thought it meant to hold āopen,ā and to hold āclosed.ā Iāve come to know no outcome in the external world ever had the power to break me. When truth is known and lived, my flesh feels the difference."Ā Ā
-Sarah
"What really strikes me is how much deeper I am able to trust my body after doing this work. Ever since I was small, Iāve been pretty anxious around health. It led to a decade + of learning everything I could about womenās health & holistic healing methods... I didnāt realize until I got to The Womb Room that I was playing out patterns or avoidance and attempts to control the inherently uncontrollable. This space helped me get out of the endless race of my mind and into my body, where the deep work of healing can take place."
-Sabrina
āIām so grateful that this existsā¦you have no idea how beautiful it was to be a little terrified and know I would be held in a way that not only aligns with my values but also really made me feel safe and could acknowledge the spiritual complexity of life, rather than just giving me something to stop the [symptom] and just sending me on my way without any type of consolation for the underlying issue.āĀ
