Thank you for this! Reading your words this morning I hear echoes of Gisele Pelicot's brilliant,devastating and courageous voice: "Shame must change sides." It is NOT our fault we as women don't have experience of, comfort with, or expertise around money issues. We haven't been allowed that wisdom. Collectively we can change that.

Also, thank you for including the shout out to indigenous cultures of the Midwest for the wisdom of the circle. I knew it was an indigenous practice...knowing it is geographically rooted in the land I now occupy is deeply meaningful and I will incorporate this into future circles I facilitate and anchor.

You're so welcome, Sarah.

Thank YOU!

I love the Gisele Pelicot quote - so spot on (and yes, to a courageous voice!).

I'm in awe of the wisdom of indigenous cultures - we have so much to gain from learning and understanding more about them (as opposed to the version we were taught).

I LOVE that you facilitate circles! We need more spaces for women to talk & share.

Thank you!

Everything about your article resonated with me! Although I made a vow to myself to stop (to the extent possible) buying every shiny object that catches my eye, I immediately signed up for a year of "women, wisdom & wealth"! Can't wait for more!
