Welcome

I was a very young girl the first time I sat in a dugout watching a game I was not allowed to play. I did not have words for it then.
I just knew I belonged on that field. And I knew I was not allowed.

Reclaim YOUR Story

That quiet feeling of being on the outside of something you could not quite name.

This is where it gets a name.

Do It TOGETHER

This journey is built for two.
A friend, a cohort, a sister, a mother, a daughter.

Women have always done their best work together.

Change What Is POSSIBLE

When women become the storytellers, the human story changes.
And the moment you begin to see that, something shifts. 

The Story Behind the Journey

You Have Been Sitting in the Dugout. You Just Did Not Have a Name for It Yet.

There is a very young girl who knows something is not right.

She does not have words for it. She just knows she belongs on the field. And she knows she is not being let in.

Maybe for you it was a literal dugout. Maybe it was a conference room, a classroom, a family dinner table where your brother's plans were taken seriously and yours were smiled at. Maybe you are doing it right now, giving everything you have to your family and your children, your work and your people, and still somehow feeling like you are on the outside of something you cannot quite name.

Maybe it was the day you stopped asking for something you wanted and you cannot quite remember when that happened or why you let it go.

The dugout looks different for every woman. But we all know the feeling.

Someone handed us a story about ourselves. About what we were allowed to want. What we were built for. What kind of game was ours to play. And most of us accepted it without knowing we had a choice. Not because we were weak. Because the story was handed to us before we were old enough to question it.

Here is what I know after a lifetime of watching women.

The story is not true.

It was never true.

And the moment a woman begins to see that, something shifts that cannot be undone.

That is what A Hero's Journey is built around. Not a problem to fix. Not a program to complete. A question to sit with, alongside someone you love and trust.

What story have you been told?

What becomes possible when you put it down?

Two women. Ten weeks. One journey built around the book Cassandra Speaks by Elizabeth Lesser, which asks a question that will stay with you long after you finish reading it. What if women had been the storytellers too?

A mother and a daughter. Two sisters. Two friends. You move through it together, on your own time, in your own life. No classroom. No schedule. No one telling you how to feel about what you find.

I do the reading, the research, the curation. I find the ideas that matter and bring them to you in my own voice. You bring someone you love and take the journey together.

The dugout is not where your story ends.

It is where it begins.
