Hey Reader,

How are you? Do you ever have that urge at the moment to be brutally honest to that question...and say 'I haven't got a bloody clue?!!'

Or maybe you know the answer already, but it goes against that unspoken social rule of 'yeah, I'm fine...(NO I am NOT fine)'.

This week I think I'm in the first camp. I just want to walk, into the hills, hang out with trees, and drink Ginger & Mint tea all the time.

Then you check in with what's going on in the world. The other night I read this on Substack - 'What Happens When The World is Motherless'.

I see posts on Facebook telling other women how to check internet history via the router.

I remember situations in my own life with men in the past. Bulling past boundaries. Not hearing 'no'. Finding emails and chat histories.

So I read the post above, and it landed in my body. It was after teatime - and I just felt sick.

And a rage. A very deep, collective rage.

The kind of rage that tends to cause tears, shaking.

Where the hell are we?

I consider the trajectory of my own life right now - in a season of integration, architecture. But collectively - in Descent. It's burning and it hurts.

I don't have an answer to all this. But I do think there's something in not looking away...In feeling it fully rather than scrolling past.

And then I come back to this work. To the women finding their ground, their voice, their sovereignty. Maybe that's it - maybe every woman who crosses her own threshold, who finds her footing, who stops making herself small, is part of how we eventually get there collectively.

Trailblazing, one woman at a time.

With that in mind, here's a roundup of this week's content for you.

This week on the path...

Two new videos are up on the channel this week:

The Threshold - how to know when you're ready to cross it, and what gets in the way.
​Watch here​

You've Found Your Calling - So Why Can't You Get It Out Into the World? - a riff on that stuck place between knowing and doing.
​Watch here​

And coming Friday: Why Women Keep Their Voices Small (And How to Change That). If you're not subscribed to the channel yet, now's a good time to do that!

If you prefer to read, the written versions of the spiral stages are building up on the website: The Fracture · The Descent · The Liminal Space · The Threshold​

Big love,
Sarah
