No riding. No horse experience needed. Just an opportunity to slow down, connect, and spend a few hours surrounded by the beauty of the Blue Ridge Mountains.And because around here we believe gathering together should always include something good to eat, there’ll be a fully catered brunch from Wilkes Coffee Company! waiting for you, with our manager Christie Jo stable side and ensuring equestrian excellence and exquisite indulgence with on an on Brand spread that will knock your hooves off!Eight circles before this one have sold out in Nashville. Now, for the first time, that same experience is coming home to Wilkes County.Sometimes the best thing we can do for ourselves is spend a morning slowing down, sharing a table, and remembering just how good connection can feel.Who this is forThis is for the woman who's always the strong one. Who holds everyone else together and quietly wonders who's holding her.The one who's navigating a transition, a loss, an ending, a becoming and hasn't had space to feel any of it.The one who's done the books, the therapy, the inner work and still feels like something hasn't fully landed in her body.The one who's tired of managing everything and just wants to feel like herself again.You don't have to arrive with the right words or know exactly why you're coming. The horses meet you where you are, and so do I.All eight circles before this one sold out early in Nashville, TN. This is the first time this will be offered in North Carolina.The women who attended previous circles have said this..."My experience at Women's Circle with Horses was truly profound and powerful. Vanessa held such a safe and supportive space throughout the entire experience. Her thoughtful questioning and intuitive coaching deepened my time with the horse and helped me uncover meaningful insights. I especially appreciated the integration time afterward, where we had plenty of space to reflect, share and connect with the other women. It was an unforgettable experience and one I would wholeheartedly do again and highly recommend to anyone seeking connection, healing and growth." — Kathryn M."Vanessa's circles got me through the hardest moment of my entire life. I cannot even put into words how much they changed me and shaped me. They helped me feel connected again. Connected to myself. Connected to community. Connected to nature. Vanessa brought me back to myself and I really could not have gotten through that season without her and these circles. I cannot thank her enough." — Gracie C."This was one of the most precious experiences I have ever been a part of. I loved how one of the horses showed me that he trusted me. I was ready to let something go that day and he confirmed I was truly ready. He felt what I needed in that moment and gave it to me with such grace. I will never forget this." — LaToya B.WHAT'S INCLUDEDA full catered brunch on arrival, courtesy of Wilkes Coffee CompanyA guided somatic and equine facilitated experience, all led by Vanessa PetronelliTime in the arena with the herdA group integration circleJournaling prompts and a partner listening exerciseA closing ritualFor women 30 and up.
