Sharon Kathryn D’Agostino is a passionate advocate for the empowerment of women and girls, and for the human rights of all. Sharon founded the story-sharing platform, SayItForward.org, and she hosts monthly Women’s Circles online. She believes in the power of stories to spark our compassion for ourselves and for others, and to recognize that we are all connected.
In this episode, Julia and Sharon discuss the virtual Women’s Circles that Sharon hosts and the importance of self-exploration and community.
Julia Wiklander shares her experiences of participating in the circles. Sharon provides a background to the Women’s Circles and what they mean to her. She speaks about unfiltered writing and her choice of writing prompts.
“The number of women who have reached out to me after women’s circle, it’s just so many women who will say, ‘I realized something today that I never would have come up with in journaling.'”
– Sharon Kathryn D’Agostino
The Women’s Circles provide a space for women to check in with themselves and focus on their own well-being. The virtual format allows women from anywhere to join. Each month women from several different countries across the world join the circles. Unfiltered writing and a variety of writing prompts help women explore different aspects of themselves and their lives. Self-exploration is important for personal growth and overcoming self-limiting beliefs. These circles provide a dedicated time for women to prioritize themselves and their well-being.
This conversation is an invitation for any woman to join the monthly Women’s Circles that Sharon hosts. Learn more and sign up for an upcoming Women’s Circle here.
