The Art of Self-Approval™ - Sacred Circles
March Circle: Stop Overthinking Yourself
Make the Decision. Trust It. Move.
You are not stuck because you don't know what to do.
You're stuck because you don't trust yourself enough to do it.You've replayed the conversation.
You've analyzed every angle.
You've imagined every possible outcome.
And you're still sitting on the fence.
This circle is for the woman who is tired of living in the in-between.
The Real Cost of Waiting
You know what needs to go.
The job that's draining you.
The relationship that's depleting you.
The commitment you never actually wanted.
The pattern you keep repeating.
But you're afraid that saying no will cost you something:
Their approval. The connection. The safety of what's familiar.
So you stay stuck in the suffering of indecision.
And every day you don't choose, you lose a little more of yourself.
The truth?
Staying is costing you more than leaving ever will.
Why "Just Trust Yourself" Doesn't Work
If it were that easy, you'd already be doing it.
Women have been trained to shrink their needs for everyone else.
To prioritize harmony over honesty.
To fear the labels that come when we don't comply:
Selfish. Difficult. Too much. Not enough.
It's not about confidence.
It's about breaking patterns that have kept you safe — until they didn't.
And that's scary.
This circle doesn't tell you to just trust yourself.
It teaches you how.
What's Different Here
There is no wrong way to do this.
No one right answer.
No pressure to "get it right."
Just:
Grace. For the mess of being human.
Permission. To want what you want.
Compassion. For how hard this actually is.
You will not be shamed for your indecision.
You will not be rushed into a choice.
You will be held while you find your own answer.
What Changes After This Circle
✨
In 90 minutes, we will:
✨ Name what you've been avoiding: The job. The relationship. The boundary. The thing you keep circling.
✨ Feel the difference between fear and knowing: Your body already knows. We'll teach you how to listen.
✨ Separate the voice of conditioning from the voice of truth: "What will they think?" vs. "What do I actually need?"
✨ Make a decision — yes or no: Not perfect. Not permanent. Just clear.
✨ Practice self-approval in real time: What it feels like to choose yourself, even when it's uncomfortable.
You'll Leave With:
✔ A clear yes or no on the decision you brought in
✔ A body-based practice for discerning your truth in any situation
✔ The exact words to use when people question your choice
✔ Permission to stop explaining yourself
This is not mindset coaching. This is decisive self-leadership.
Because when you stop abandoning yourself, you stop teaching the people around you that your needs are negotiable. That ripples.

You do not need more opinions. You need to trust your own.
If you are ready to stop circling and start choosing —
This Is For You If…
✔ You have a decision sitting on your desk — and you've been "thinking about it" for weeks (or months)
✔ You know what you want, but you're terrified to claim it
✔ You're exhausted from performing certainty for everyone else
✔ You're ready to stop asking permission to take care of yourself
✔ You're willing to choose — even without applause
If you're still committed to safety over sovereignty, this may not be your room.
If you're ready to decide, it is.

FAQ
What exactly is a Sacred Circle?
A Sacred Circle is a live, intimate group experience where women come together to do deep, transformational work in community. It's not a webinar or a lecture — it's a facilitated space where you'll be guided through practices, reflections, and real-time decision-making. You'll be seen, heard, and held as you move through what you came to shift.
Do I need to be on camera?
Your camera can be on or off — whatever feels most supportive for you. Some women process best by being seen; others need privacy to go deep. Both are welcome.
What if I can't attend live?
You'll receive a replay within 24 hours of the circle. However, the live experience is always more powerful — the energy of the group and the real-time guidance creates transformation that's hard to replicate. If at all possible, show up live.
Will I have to share my decision with the group?
You're never required to share anything publicly. There will be opportunities for reflection and connection, but you get to choose how much you want to say. This is YOUR process.
What decision should I bring?
Any decision you've been circling for weeks (or months). The job you're afraid to leave. The relationship you know needs to end. The boundary you need to set. The thing you keep saying you'll deal with "later." If it's draining your life force and you're stuck in indecision about it, bring it.
How is this different from therapy or coaching?
This isn't therapy or ongoing coaching. It's a focused, facilitated experience designed to help you make ONE clear decision and build the self-trust to stand in it. Think of it as a catalyst moment — not a replacement for deeper work, but a powerful complement to it.
What if I'm still not sure after the circle?
The circle isn't about forcing a decision you're not ready for. It's about giving you the tools to discern what's actually true for you — and the permission to trust it. Some women leave with a crystal-clear yes or no. Others leave with clarity about what they need to explore next. Both are valid outcomes.
Is this refundable?
No, this circle is non-refundable. When you register, you're claiming your space in a carefully held container. However, your spot may be transferable to a future circle upon request — reach out and we'll work with you.
I'm afraid I'll make the "wrong" decision. What if I regret it?
This is the question that keeps you stuck. The real question isn't "What if I'm wrong?" It's "Can I trust myself even if this doesn't go perfectly?" We're not chasing perfect decisions. We're building unshakeable self-trust — the kind that says, "I chose this. And if it doesn't work out, I'll choose again."
What do I need for the circle?
A quiet space where you won't be interrupted for 90 minutes. A journal or paper for reflection. An open heart and a willingness to be honest with yourself. That's it.
Who is this NOT for?
This circle is not for you if you're looking for someone to tell you what to do, if you're committed to staying stuck, or if you're not willing to take responsibility for your own choices. This work requires courage and self-honesty.
