Kind words, hopeful ideas and gatherings
Reflections on feedback we've received, the ideas submitted and another invite to join us in Hartland in September
Last month we gently put Foregather out into the world, receiving overwhelmingly beautiful feedback. Soon we’ll write about the process of bringing Foregather to life and the impact on our bodyminds, as well as the practical tools we created to get it from idea to a full offer in three months with ease and joy, without urgency or stress. Ways of working that gesture towards the kind of world we want to live in.
Thank you to everyone who sent us the kindest words and full-bodied exclamations about Foregather Hartland. What a confirmation that our gathering speaks to you and that spaces like these are really needed.
“So happy to see this in the world, the vision, the story and the first invitations...”
“Congratulations for doing important, timely, hopeful work.”
“A brief note to say how magical & needed this space is.”
“This is so so so beautiful. It has really sparked so much and you tell the story so beautifully…”
Our intent is to help women make their hopeful ideas a reality. We truly believe there aren’t enough spaces in the world where we can practice being in community as our full, creative selves. The world needs women living in their full creative power, leading and shaping the ideas we all need for a more equitable, regenerative, care-filled world.
“Gathering women together is SO important…Not because men are no longer needed or valued but because the unique qualities that women can bring to the world need authentic, safe space to be nurtured.”
“So exciting, thrilled to see it go live. So, so delighted to see offers for women to connect to themselves, their bodies, their dreams.”
“This looks absolutely incredible. What an exciting and brave endeavour! What a beautiful thing to bring women together in this way.”
We know that creating the space to replenish our creative energy is essential to this intent. Creative energy exists in everything, waiting for us to tap into it. It is nourished by being in community with other women and having the spaciousness to connect to ourselves and our intuition, as well as to the earth and the more-than-human.
“This is magnificent. It makes me nearly weep every time. It’s so beautiful!”
“This is all very exciting. I love the framing around feeling called to something bigger than you, this feels like such an important space for people”
“I’m a deeply creative person but I find it hard to create space for myself and the possibilities I want to grow. I can’t tell you how much this speaks to me. What a beautiful idea.”
At Foregather Hartland, we’ll also offer our combined practical skills in creative strategy, coaching and design to help you get your ideas going. We have decades of experience in dreaming and visioning, strategy, branding and visual identity, content writing, launch planning and working through blocks around creativity and visibility.
We have received more expressions of interest than expected, with themes spanning power & equity, neurodivergence, mental health, the arts, community organising, climate and migration, chronic illness and more. We’re excited to see what emerges from bringing complementary ideas together in one space.
“It looks incredible, and beautiful, and resonates, and speaks to a desire to do something, though I’m not sure what yet.”
“What a time for this offering to come into the world. It will midwife so many needed things.”
We’re keeping the expressions of interest for Foregather Hartland open for a few more weeks and would love to hear from you. Whether you have a clear idea of what you'd like to bring into the world and you just need some help getting started. Or perhaps you have an intuitive knowing that you have something to offer, but you don't know quite what that something is yet.

Our first gathering is 20th - 23rd September 2024 in Hartland, Devon, UK.
