To the Women in the Workforce...

↓

This weekend, as we pause for Labor Day, I’ve been remembering its roots: a day created to honor those who fought for fair wages and conditions, and the feminist voices that insisted women deserved the same rights and opportunities. Their efforts laid the groundwork for the freedoms we hold today, and stepping into the workforce came with side effects many of us now feel in our bodies, hearts, and homes.

In honor of this Labor Day, I wrote about these 'side effects' and what it means to find balance in our postmodern lives, honoring the progress women have made while also returning to the traditional roots that keep us connected to who we are at the core.

For those women in the workforce... the women who are feeling overworked, stretched thin, and ready to return to the circle, here’s what’s ahead with MM this September…

MM ACROSS THE COUNTRY • NEXT WEEKEND

On Saturday 9/6 MM circles are blooming nationwide:

  • ​Texas MM Chapter — Join an established community of women in Terrell for a Mermaid Movement Experience at Wild Raven’s Nest.
  • ​Tennessee MM Chapter — Pave the path at the very first ever Mermaid Movement & Full Moon Circle in Tennessee.

A FULL MOON GODDESS GATHERING IN CARLSBAD, CA • SUNDAY SEPT 7

I’m honored to join my friend and dear MM alumna, Chelsea Ferguson, in hosting her September Full Moon Circle under the powerful Blood Moon and Lunar Eclipse in Pisces.

This evening will be a space for emotional release, deep intuition, and spiritual renewal. Together, Chelsea and I will guide you through ritual, ceremony, and feminine wisdom using my book, The Wheel of the Woman, as a guide.

We encourage early sign ups so we can prepare the circle with intention and care. All women are welcome. Come exactly as you are, and gather with us in sisterhood.

And before we close the circle of this newsletter, one more invitation…

On Monday, September 1 at 11am PST, I’ll be live on Instagram with Sharissa of 5 Two Press. We’ll be talking about writing, creativity, and the pathways that carry our words into the world.

Bring your spark of creativity, your curiosity, and your heart for storytelling. We’d love to see you there.

Xo, MM

MM Nov 26th We are officially in our hygge era. Candles glowing, warm drinks in hand, soft blankets everywhere... Start to soak in the slower pace of the season. (I'm gathering inspiration for a little how-to-hygge blog that will be landing soon so we can all have some simple reminders.) In this little sweet spot of planning and play, the MM leaders are celebrating one another, playing elf for their Secret Santa leadership sisters, and reflecting on everything we have harvested this year. It...

MM Nov 18th Are you a midnight mermaid? 🌙 ↓ A Midnight Mermaid is the woman who comes alive when the world quiets down. She is the late night thinker, the barefoot kitchen dancer, the one who finds clarity at 11 pm while everyone else sleeps. She is soft, silly, and slightly feral in the best way. She texts her friends memes at odd hours, whips up creations while the moon accompanies her, and somehow wakes up with a full heart even on low sleep. She deserved her own winter uniform. So tonight...
