❝I've learned so much already from other people's ideas, pitches, and challenges and received great advice. The main thing though is my confidence has grown. I can pitch and be commissioned to write, or be rejected and that's ok. I feel like the world is full of possibilities. And finally, a genuine thank you for running the Circle. I've run peer networks before and it's not easy to get the energy right and make it meaningful but you really do!”— Charlotte

❝I joined The Circle so I don’t lose that momentum or get discouraged if things take a little longer than I hope. Looking forward to getting to know some like-minded womxn." — Vanessa 

❝I am only three months in, but I already feel part of a community. I think that was part of my decision too. I was missing a creative community during the time of Covid. Thank you for creating the course and group, and being so generous with your time and knowledge and making each of us feel seen.”— Kimberly

❝By aligning with all of you also being brave enough to give a creative endeavor a go, I'm hoping this space will be a way for me to get over my fear of sharing my work and get some things published." 

— Ashley

❝I joined The Circle to become part of a group of like-minded womxn who want the same things from life that I want-travel and adventure plus a fulfilling career. To have a community whose members support your efforts is invaluable. I don't have anyone in my life who understands my goals or vision for my life, so I am glad this community is here for me." — Monica

❝The thought of putting myself out there in front of publications and editors was a terrifying no-go! That was until I enrolled in the 'Storytellers in Action' masterclass. Without that opportunity and community, I would never have given breath to this dream because I believed it to be beyond my reach. I would never have started pitching, pursuing call-outs, or getting published. I would never have let these possibilities in. But being a Genie taught me to be braver and bolder than I ever thought possible. I was missing those reminders in my life-so here I am in The Circle! I'm so happy to be back in such a joyful, supportive, energetic space and really hope we all continue to light one another up." — Hannah
