The Wild Circle

The Wild Circle Spaces for ritual, reflection and connection. Women's circles in Gloucestershire and online. That beauty is access to joy.

I believe in beautiful spaces for women to come together in safety and solidarity, to find sanctuary and soulful connection as often as they need it. I trained in circle facilitation with Sister Stories, and believe in their mission - that ‘going to circle’ should become as commonplace for women as going to yoga. I believe in the importance of slowing down and connecting with yourself and your com

munity of sisters. I believe we need ritual in our lives, something that signals to our minds and bodies that it is time to stop, to reflect, to be curious and open. I believe we all deserve the chance to spend time in the presence of beauty. That we all deserve to make time for joy. I believe in being inspired by the words and stories of others, that all women, all over the world, all have a story to share and something to teach us.

We're planning something really special for the summer edition of Ground & Gather - a shared feast together, under a canopy of trees; a women's circle held in a wild woodland glade; sunny afternoon hammock lazing; meditations standing barefoot on the earth; and a beautiful ritual that allows us to integrate and embody the simple, sacred power of being together in the woods.

These woodland retreats are becoming such nourishing and powerful days together, and we'd love for more women to experience the beauty of grounding and gathering in nature.

We're already half full, so head to the link in our bio to book your space - we'd absolutely love to have you with us.

An invitation to circle. To hold yourself and your stories with infinite care, to meet truth with compassion, to be witnessed in our, joy, pain, uncertainty, in our knowing and our not knowing.

Circle tonight, a loving soft space to sink into. Couple of spaces left if you'd like to be there. If you've landed in your week feeling heavy or low, needing nurture, a place to share the load of the things we carry, a community of compassionate women. The space is there for you.

So looking forward to tomorrow. So blessed that this is my life. Never ever not entirely and completely indebted to for making this a reality.

The training starts again in April and it's deeper and more expansive and comprehensive than ever. It truly truly has changed my life. If you would like more info on the training please DM me or head to

I love this. The stories of others are the things that awaken truth within. They're what unlocks our hearts and reminds us that we are not alone. They are what connects us more deeply to the mythology of our lives and our lineage. Our stories deserve to be told, to be heard, to be witnessed. Not in a noisy space where everyone is competing for a voice - but in a beautifully held, safe, brave, courageous space that centres deep witnessing, trust, compassion and honouring. This is the space you'll find with me, in all my circles and retreats.

If you're feeling the need to be held and heard, with love, you can find out more at the link in my bio

Slow morning. Going gently with a tender heart. Today is always rough. Not just the absence of anywhere to send a card with heartfelt words, not just the posy of flowers from my garden that I take to a grave rather than the warm hands of my mother. Not just the choice between going to church with my family (which I like to do on Mothering Sunday) and watching the boys play a football match (which I love doing). Not just the expectation of a day that is meant to feel special but which my children are often too tired, too little, too emotional to really honour in any meaningful way. So I'm going slowly. Feeling into the what feels possible without asking more than anyone needs to give. Right now, that means drinking a damson gin in my new 🌶️ glass from my husband, and scrolling photos of my mum, mothering me by being with me so gently and constantly as I raised my babies.

Sending love to those with a mother and without one today. And those with children and without children. Everyone matters.

A snapshot of future magic. Bluebells. Green shoots amongst the trees that, warmed by the sun in the coming days, will bloom into precious bluebells.

Bluebells that (crossing everything) are going to be out when we gather in the woods a week from today. Bluebells that will encircle our circle, that will carpet the woodland floor with spring colour. A simple, beautiful reminder of nature's resilience. Of everything in its time.

When we gathered in this place in November, the ground was hard, the earth was closed for the winter. It seemed impossible that life would come back to the quiet, frosty ground. But under the earth, held safe in the fertile soil, the bluebells were resting, waiting, gathering, nourishing, knowing, trusting. This too shall pass. Winter has softened into spring.

Come and walk amongst the bluebells with us. We have two spaces left for our Spring retreat. Link to book: https://www.thewildcircle.space/retreats

Come home - to yourself, to nature, to community, to the village. Mark the arrival of spring in beautiful ancient woodland, share hot food around the fire, walk amongst the trees, hear the stories of brave, beautiful, compassionate women, find space to slow down, to stop spinning, be held, and let someone else take care of the details. All you have to do is be here. Book at the link in my bio

One of the things I find most profound about circle spaces is their ability to offer an instant shift of pace and rhythm. Everything is crafted to invite a sense of slowing down, intention and stillness from the moment you step into the space. It's not a social space. It's not a casual space. It's not a therapeutic space. It's somewhere you can stop spinning, where you can gather, ground, reconnect and share the weight of all you carry. From the music to the soothing scents, to candles, lighting, blankets and a crackling fire, and the quiet contemplation of other women - this regular practice of showing up and slowing down is such a gift.

Monthly circles, Tuesday evenings, and seasonal circles in the woods quarterly. Next one 21 March.

The world had never needed a matriarchy more. Proud to be part of a vital movement to build one. Gemma has given me the work of work that truly feels like medicine in a broken world. So much gratitude tonight.
