About the TRAUMA-INFORMED LEADERSHIP Course

The Trauma-Informed Women in Leadership Course is a progression from the Trauma-Informed Leadership Course 2022, offering access to all those materials, but adding a uniquely feminine perspective. The course addresses change-makers, NGOs and Social Entrepreneurs.

We celebrate the power and beauty of women. We celebrate how far we have come since our mothers, grandmothers and great-grandmothers started raising their voices.

Nearly 500 women are travelling together from May to October 2023 to unfold our potential courage to step into spaces where love and power meet. The world is calling for us to deepen our relatedness, with ourselves and each other, with our teams and our ancestries, with our dignity and humility. With 80 participants from Ukraine, and over 60 participants from the Global South, this is a highly diverse community of mutual support.

Each of us can become a focal point for coherence and safety. Each of us can start to create healing architectures around us. As we awaken our resourcing and resilience as women, we empower ourselves to meet, address and heal individual, ancestral and collective trauma. Our collective wounds need a collective body to heal.

I am grateful to be a woman. I must have done something great in another life. Maya Angelou
