Help Women Heal Trauma & Reclaim Sexuality
Women deserve empowering, safe spaces as we reclaim sexuality and heal shame/trauma - let's make sure that this support is here & available!
Project Description
- What led me to this work: After experiencing sexual violence - my case became the 1st in North America to conclude with restorative justice. I met my assailant face-to-face in an 8-hour circle and shared my story with the media: in Forbes, Huff Post, Mel Robbins Show and more. Quickly, my inbox filled with thousands of messages from women who wanted to know how to reclaim their empowerment, self-love and sexuality after such experiences.
- Pain to Purpose: As someone with a background in social work, somatic sex education, and trauma-informed healing modalities AND as a woman who is: lesbian, Jewish, and a survivor of sexual assault - I was already well aware of how needed this work is. I birthed my coaching business in order to ensure that women receive the support we deserve, when it comes to healing sexual trauma and shame.
- Who needs this work? Let's be real... the amount of women in the world who need these healing tools, safe spaces, and resources for reclamation = A WHOLE EFFING LOT. Whether or not women have experienced sexual assault in their lifetime (which we know is all too common), all of us have suffered from a culture of objectification and misogyny. It's so important that we have spaces that allow us to heal, claim self-worth, rise in love with our bodies, shed shame & live our truth.
- How will this help? My programs (online courses, retreats, membership platforms) create these spaces in an inclusive and empowering manner. Already, my team and I have helped hundreds of women heal from: body image issues, sexual trauma, disordered eating, appearance anxiety, low self-esteem, dissociation, and more. We've supported women in claiming LGBTQ+ identities, leave abusive relationships, start their dream careers and more. From my own lived experience and professional training in these areas of life, We've created tangible systems that give the women the tools they need to not only survive, but thrive!
- Why we need your support: We require funding in order to 1) reach the women who need this support, 2) make sure this work is accessible to them. Your contributions will go towards:
- A Scholarship Fund: Donations will be collected in order to cover the costs of women who require financial support. Scholarships will prioritize BIPOC women, LGBTQ+ folk and survivors of sexual trauma.
- Guest Speakers & Compensation: In order to expand these networks and bring in diverse voices, perspectives and teachings, we require funding to bring in & compensate speakers for our memberships and programs
- Technology: As our platforms grow, we require funding for technology, inventory assets, online subscriptions, and marketing costs. It is our hope to reach 2000 women in the membership platform within the next 2 years
- Niched Program Creation: More funding would allow us to create programs that focus on specific intersections and identities (ie. self-love and sexual empowerment for LGBTQ+ women, leadership programs for survivors who want to heal through impact, Jewish survivors of sexual assault, etc.)
- Remember: Your contribution is allowing women all over the world to reclaim the self-love, healing and embodied empowerment they deserve. Through these spaces, women will receive worldwide support networks that contribute to their well-being and reclamation. They'll cultivate a sense of safety in their own bodies and in our world. They'll heal trauma and form lifelong connections and transformative tools for their everyday lives.
- Thank you so much for supporting this work!! You truly are supporting a MOVEMENT by empowering women all over the world to reclaim self-love and sexuality. And as I experienced in my own life, when we heal as individuals, this ripples out into the collective (ie. through my own healing/empowerment after sexual trauma, I was able to make history in the justice system). I've seen this with my clients too. This healing is so important and deeply needed in our world - thank you for ensuring that it continues to grow and reach those who deserve it.
