058: Cultivate brave space, intentional community Licia Berry, Lisa Nalbone, Wendy Parman, Isabelle Rizo, Emily Stroia

"There's something sacred about passing the microphone to each individual woman and what's even MORE exciting and sacred is the way in which everyone was LISTENING to each other." ~Andrea Klunder In this episode, I have FIVE incredible women gathered to talk about intentional creative community and, of course, that pesky little impostor voice! My guests! Licia Berry... bestselling author, artist, speaker, mentor, women's advocate, author of I Am Her Daughter* Lisa Nalbone... educator, advocate for self-directed lifelong learning, author of Life Sparks Wendy Parman... singer, actor, writer, voice teacher, creator of Callie's Solo web series Isabelle Rizo... business mentor for the next generation of successful female entrepreneurs, artist, filmmaker, facilitator of The Singularity Circle Emily Stroia Gold... professional intuitive, spiritual medium, poet and author of Into the Light Let me set the scene for you... A cool, crisp fall day in Chicago. Six women, including myself, gather in my 2nd floor vintage walkup apartment. Many of us have only ever met online, but we've all been brought together for a single purpose. We have tea and then we sit in a circle. I have two microphones -- one for me, and one that we pass around the circle as each woman shares her own story, ideas, and words of encouragement. This is the closest thing to a wise women's council that I've ever experienced. I feel that we're sitting around the bonfire shaping the future of our culture and community ahead. We talk about: The bridge between online and offline space to create community The Supernova personal art and storytelling event designed by Isabelle Rizo, for which we were all gathered The importance and power of cultivating intentional community Getting clear on your story, your why, what you want to create in the world, and also your boundaries How our impostor voices show up and what we do about it *Books are affiliate links to Amazon.
