We believe in the power of art to heal
Mission
The Women's Wisdom Initiative provides survivors of gender-based oppression and their allies an opportunity through the healing arts to speak their truth, heal and personally connect their voices and wisdom to a global conversation of empowerment and gender equality.
We want the violence that is perpetrated against any woman- BIPOC, cisgender, transgender, non- binary and gender fluid persons to end.
We believe in the power of our authentic wisdom- that unique voice that speaks to our truth- and believe that it can shift systemic misogyny by being amplified, shared and respected.
We believe the world will be a better place when all women’s lives are respected and valued.
The act of being of service or speaking your truth is healing. Opening your heart to someone you may not share commonalities with or who you will never meet provides both an opportunity for self expression as well as an awareness of the other.
World healing can be affected through small change. The process of transformation is the same no matter the context. It begins with awareness that we all possess the power of our own light.
Why not share that light?
“As I began to love myself
I recognized
that my mind can disturb me
and it can make me sick.
But as I connected it to my heart,
my mind became a valuable ally.
Today I call this connection Wisdom of the Heart.”
-Charlie Chaplin
