Join us at Sister Circles ROC for our October circle session!

We will be meeting on Friday 10/10 at 6:30PM at 103 Canal Landing Blvd., Suite 8.

October’s Circle Session is rooted in renewal, release, and radiant self-acceptance. As the leaves begin to fall and nature sheds what no longer serves, we’ll explore how to honor our own seasons of change — letting go, replenishing, and realigning with what truly matters.

Sessions are trauma-informed and lovingly crafted for Black women aged 18 and older. Together, we hold space for reflection, gentle healing, and authentic connection — centering self-compassion, inner peace, and embodied growth.

Let this be your season of release and renewal — a time to return to yourself, reclaim your joy, and rise softer yet stronger than before.

We’d love to see you!

They belong

Read that again. 👏

The bravest thing you’ll ever do is refuse to settle for a life that dims your light.
You don’t have to wait for rock bottom.
You don’t need permission to start over.
You are allowed to want more — peace, purpose, joy, wholeness. 🕊️

Choosing yourself isn’t selfish.
It’s revolutionary.

This is your reminder: you were not born to simply tolerate life — you were meant to live it fully, wildly, and beautifully.
