Burning Sisterhood
My Story
Burning Sisterhood is inspired by my own journey and experiences with other women throughout my life. Early in my life, I experienced loneliness and it deeply affected the way I related to other human beings. I became an independent person, who didn’t allow others in.
But the feeling of loneliness and isolation lingered, even if hidden deep down. The sensation of inadequacy, of not being good enough, would follow me.
What is 'Burning Sisterhood'?
In the journey through sisterhood, I experienced so much beauty. I was listened to and seen, I was embraced and loved, I received help and encouragement, and I explored my own self-expression in a safe container.
But it also came with many difficulties. I was triggered. I discovered my deep fear of rejection and loneliness. I unearthed the wounds that made me want to run away before I got too close to others. I witnessed feelings of jealousy and competition arising. I had to learn to resolve conflict in a kind and accepting way towards myself and others.
The walls that I built to protect myself were slowly ripped apart. I allowed others in, and in turn, it allowed me out. To fully experience, feel, express, love and create. To fully embrace who I am, and bring into the world that which I believe in.
