Hi Mitle ❤️ I so loved reading this and have a full bodied resonance to standing on the edge. I have gone through my peri-monopause into post-menopause now, but that unknown liminal space of transition continues to whisper 'I know nothing' through my experience. It is the most intense process I have yet traversed. Xx

‘I’m not doing circles but being a circle holder (even when I’m a little lost)’. These words are so comforting and guiding for me right now. Thank you 🙏🏻

Your sharing of your pondering here are so beautiful and one of the exact reasons I adore your ‘brand’ of circle. Honest and real x

Mitlé I started copying and pasting paragraphs and then gave up as there really were so many ‘OMG yes!’ moments for me in your letter. You’ve described that liminal edge so potently and I resonate so strongly with the building of capacity and willingness for discomfort. There is so much wisdom in it hey? I love the whisper of discontent you refer to and celebrate you and your honouring of it. I really appreciate your contemplations and sharing here. X

And oh yes... there are many things (circles included) that I have felt at odds with and somewhat unsure of wether I even want to associate myself with. I appreciate you speaking to this x

Mitle I think the answer to your malaise lies in the statement “circles are a wellness trend.” I feel the disconnect too. My circles have never seen a flower crown and I rarely wear neutrals 😉. If anything, your honesty about your discomfort makes me even more convinced that you’re the right circle guide for me
