Bona Dea

Facets & Feminine Ep 2

For the second episode I wanted to discuss the importance of gathering with other Women through the lens of Bona Dea. We will talk about her story and Women’s Circles throughout history. We will delve into some of the big psychological and emotional reasons we NEED our ladies in our life as well as barriers we may have with gathering with other Women. And lastly, we will talk about some ways to be the Bona Dea in your circle of Women friends and host your own Circles. So if gathering with your ladies in a meaningful way is something that you would like to do more, or more intentionally, I hope you find some awesome takeaways in this episode.
