We must learn from those who came before us, and share our stories with those who come after.

Gratitude for our Real Talk Retreat 2017

7/15/2017

We just wrapped up our second Real Talk Retreat for teen girls this past weekend! My co-facilitator Quetzal and I were totally blown away by how fun, honest, and nourishing this weekend was for all, including us!

We enjoyed two back-to-back daylong workshops in a gorgeous garden in Berkeley with 14 girls of various ages, experiences, and backgrounds. The focus of our weekend ended up being mostly around friendship/belonging,
sex/dating, drugs, and how to stay true to yourself (and even know who that "self" is and how to get in touch with her!) We shared honest conversation, we role played, we worked out scenarios, we offered up vulnerable questions and stories, we shared in a potent ritual, ate delicious food, and most of all, we had a blast being fully ourselves - together!

Thank you to all the parents for trusting us with your amazing girls, and for believing in the work we do! Thank you to our mentors, those who generously gift us their teachings so we may be guides for your girls and forces of good in this world. Thank you for sharing your wisdom, helping us find ours, and showing us the importance of passing it on.
