💜 Collective Impact Poem 💜

This poem is a spliced integration of individual VOICES Leadership Council member’s reflections on their time with the Council. I’ve had the immense honor to walk with and guide the work of this sisterhood of survivors going on 4 years now.

What a gift their voices are to all 💜

Grateful for the Virginia Sexual and Domestic Violence Action Alliance for making and tending space for this work to thrive 🌱🙏🏽

Inhale — Polish the mirror
Exhale — Be your truth
Rest in the spaces in-between

*especially those joyous spaces like miles of a smile pulled up by spirit, through cheekbones, and anchored down into my heart’s core when I’m doing my thang — when I’m “accepting responsibility for being an instrument of what I receive.”
