I had dreams - big ones. But I didn't have the people around me who believed in me, and without that, I didn't have the courage to pursue them.
This is the reality for so many of us. We want to do something. We can feel it. But the environment around us - whether given to us, like our parents and siblings, or created by us, like our partner and friend circle - tells us, directly or indirectly: you are not enough for that.
No matter how much inner work you do, if you come home to a space that doesn't believe in you - that quietly tells you to stay small - it will break you. Slowly. Quietly. It will.
That is why I built SheWhoRests. To bring together women who believe in each other, who can uplift each other, who can help each other come out of the emotional chaos that lives in our heads because of all these relationships, all this mess we are living in.
The deeper purpose behind everything I create - every event, every retreat, every circle - is to give women not just tools, but an experience. To make them live what it feels like to be in a space that supports their dreams, that holds their healing, that connects them with people who look at them with compassion and truly understand what journey they have been through.
With love, xx Ritika
