When the story shifts
A facilitated circle for women at a crossroads. Single session, in person. Small group. Guided reflection and collective witnessing.
Register interestA gathering place
for story shifting
and collective life
Moss Moves is a space for women, practitioners, and communities ready to shift the stories that shape collective life. We gather in circles, on trails, online, and yes, out of the office entirely, because this work has always grown better between people than alone.
This is a declaration of what we are building toward together, and an open door to the people and organisations already building something in this space.
If you are leading something in this space, let's talk.
- Projects and movements trying to understand why communities fracture, and what story, culture, and collective practice have to do with putting them back together.
- Work that sits uncomfortably between disciplines. The kind that doesn't have a clean funding category because it hasn't been done quite this way before.
- Efforts to bring women together across borders, cultures, and difference, not to flatten those differences but to find the deeper current running underneath them.
- Anything built at the intersection of public health, cultural practice, and collective imagination that needs someone who has lived and worked inside all three.
- Initiatives that want to shake things up, step outside of workshop walls and into nature, into movement, into shared rhythm, because some of the stories that keep us stuck only shift when the body moves too.
If you are looking for a researcher, a facilitator, a thinker, a co-creator, I want to hear from you.

The thinking behind the work lives on Substack, on the stories we inherit, the ones we rewrite, and the ones we plant forward.

As an academic, researcher, and community builder, she moves fluently between theory and lived experience, drawing from both to help people transform how they are with themselves and each other.
