As a feminist, I am believing that all men and women must co-create leadership models which undo the traps of the social construct of gender.

The program is offered in a retreat format. The retreat provides a very safe opportunity to
set aside everyday concerns. We can be as slow and intentional as the inner work
demands. This internal focus allows examination of the female self in both the personal and
professional world.
We come together as daughters, nieces, sisters, aunts, mothers, grand-mothers, grand
daughters, partners, lovers, friends, colleagues, rivals, enemies, competent workers and
comrades - our connections are diverse and intricate. The community we create at this
retreat looks into the inter-relatedness of all our shared concerns, as well as sometimes
seemingly unbridgeable distinctions between us. Between our sameness and our
differences lies a path of great satisfaction and clarity.
During our days together we offer daily meditation time, very strong daily bodywork,
experiential activities and opportunity for learning the percept language and world view. We
also include focused discussion, structured journal writing and didactic theory presentation.
We integrate myths, fairy tales, fables, artwork, Tarot and other provocative media into our
learning experience. In between all the activity, we will make sure there is time for resting,
playing, walking, sitting by the fire.
Led by Rita Andrews, Alexandra Merrill, Bhanumathy Vasudevan, Beth Wheeler, and Joy Srinivasan, a highly
qualified, committed and experienced staff. $2000 covers basic expenses. At the end of the
program, a bowl will be put out for tuition offerings.
This program is approved by the National Association of Social Workers for 52 continuing education contact hours.
