Women Circles
Women’s Circle: At the Threshold
On the eve of Halloween, we’ll gather in circle at that strange, beautiful edge between seasons: when the days are getting darker, the natural world is letting go, and we’re invited to listen a little more closely to what’s stirring underneath the noise.
This is an evening for women to slow down, move, breathe, speak honestly, and be witnessed. We’ll explore what we’re ready to shed, what we’re carrying into the darker months, and what our own inner knowing has been trying to tell us.
Expect a little movement, ritual, reflection, meaningful conversation, and maybe just enough witchy woo-woo to remember that women have been gathering in circles for a very long time.
Mother Circle is an intimate 8-class gathering for mothers who want to understand the unseen arc of their motherhood journey, move out of confusion and into greater clarity and wisdom within a supportive community.
Rooted in the framework developed by Kimberly Ann Johnson, this series invites you to slow down and sit in circle each week to explore the invisible transitions of motherhood-identity shifts, emotional labor, expectations, grief, joy, and the deep personal transformation that unfolds as we mother. Together, we learn to name what is often unnamed, normalize experiences that are frequently carried alone, and reconnect with our own intuition and values.
MotherCircle is currently in session.

WHO IS THE FACILITATOR?
You will be fully guided by certified MotherCircle Facilitator, Toni Shama
Trained by Kimberly Ann Johnson, Author of the book The Fourth Trimester, Toni was in the founding cohort of MotherCircle Facilitators from all over the world.
Toni brings her own unique experience as a guide, she has been involved in mother-centered work since 2017 when she was pregnant with her first child. Now a mother of three, she is also a certified Birth and Postpartum Doula, Prenatal Yoga Instructor, and a Childbirth Educator.
“Mother Circle is a place that I truly felt witnessed and the act of witnessing others moved me at my core. Toni helped guide me to a language for my experience postpartum and in mothering that I hadn’t had before. I found connection in stories shared that helped me make sense of my motherhood journey, for the first time in four years, I didn’t feel like there was something wrong with me.”
Jennifer
“I'm very grateful to have found Toni and other mommas that I could share my fears and struggles with. I suppressed them for what feels like forever it felt really good to recognize them and learn to face them. The tools Toni shared are priceless. I was in a terrible place and mother circle helped me see the light.”
