I spent a few hours with a group of women who are working to organize a Women's Mentoring Group. Our vision is to form a community of women in the community, that will support each other as we move in new directions...hence our name, "Women In New Directions" WIND
I see WIND as challenging you to move forward, encouraging new growth and adding life skills...offering classes and outings to strengthen your true self, encouraging your spirit and passions. The push we all sometimes need to try something new.
We will have a call out to women in the community with something to learn or something to teach.
This is the natural evolution of my Lady, taking her from fabric to real life.
Nearly 12 years ago, I was on a plane with a new friend at the time. We were traveling for work, putting on conferences around the country. We each thought it would be fun to organize fun things for women to do...WIND is the answer to that long ago wish.
There are no limits to WIND. Our target age begins at 12...and will be as high as our oldest member...you are never too old to join or be part of WIND.
My Lady has a part in this group...she will be the entry point of bringing awareness to sexual abuse, but in an artful manner. She will be used to be a symbol of WIND, she will be part of the group, like I am. Her and I, will represent the victim side, the side that needs a hand along the way....wisdom and hope.
I love that she is accepted in the WIND group...along with me.
Who knows where we will go, My Lady and I, and WIND.
