Groups - SheChanges

Find your people.

Work with me and you’ll get connected.

Fiery missives. Stories with heart. Fresh perspectives. Nutrient-rich field notes.

Invite me into your inbox and I promise to make it worth your while with e-mails that feel like conversations.

It’s hard to move into a new chapter of your life by relying on the same people for inspiration.

That’s where I come in.

I don’t just design and facilitate groups. I form them—with you in mind.

Highly curated content—and membership.

You don’t join groups lightly. Neither do I.

You ask a lot of questions because you’ve had some not-so-great experiences with groups and have no interest in repeating them.
You want to know who is in the group because you want to feel at home—like you belong and can relate but won’t be asked to lead.
You’re tired of organizing and leading everything.

My groups offer you the chance to catch your breath and get inspired by new ideas, fresh perspectives, and different people.

Here’s what I’ve got for you

Home Tree Groups

These kindred-spirit groups are something I’ve been doing organically for years, but now are happening more purposefully. Harnessing the power of my match-making abilities along with the trust I have been given so generously by my clients over the years, I intentionally and strategically connect people in my SheChanges community. Centering on shared circumstances (entrepreneur, creativity and making art, being a C-suite executive, mothering, exploring the divine feminine), these groups are formed with you at the center. I will be your common denominator to orient you to each other and the process as your home tree takes root, but the magic is what happens over time beyond my involvement.

In Her Words

This is a six-week writing experience for women interested in mining for deeper levels of truth living inside them—using a pen. Resting on the belief that the answers to some of our biggest questions are already inside us, this highly-structured offering will hold you accountable to go in and get what you might have been avoiding—or pretending not to know. It’s all done over the phone, which contributes to its power because we create a safer—and more sacred—container that is only defined by our individual voices and the words we choose to share within it. To enter into this written word experience is to dip into a holy well of women’s wisdom that’s as old as time—and yet completely refreshing.

On Being a Woman

This five-month circle experience happens during the darkest part of the winter each year and is where it all began for me at SheChanges—sitting with the deeply personal question of what it means to be a woman. Each in-person gathering centers on a different topic designed to help us explore, define, and reimagine what we want our experience of being a woman to look and feel like—on our own terms and in our own way. This experience will plug you back into your own truth, unlock deeper levels of your power, and help you to hear your own clear voice that has been there all along–just waiting for a quiet moment to be heard.

Beach Bonfires

These virtual gatherings are available seasonally for white women in my SheChanges community (including me) to do our racial justice work together. No training or content is delivered, and this isn’t a program or a bookclub—it’s just an invitation to show up, share any insights, resources, or learnings you’ve had, and learn from other white women who are doing the work of dismantling systemic racism—it’s activism, starting with ourselves. 100% of the registrations each season are donated to the Loveland Foundation’s Therapy Fund. This is the place white women do our work and pay it forward to Black women and girls.

In Her Words 2

This highly curated group is designed exclusively for women who have already made their way through the original 6-week In Her Words series. It’s a bit more accelerated – just 3 weeks this time— and includes a 1:1 coaching session with me to be used after the series. Because you’ve already participated in the initial series, you’ve got the process dialed in and know the drill each week. You’ve experienced the power of the Read Aloud and have successfully made it over the hurdle of sharing your words with a group of committed and courageous strangers doing the same. You’ve tasted the sweetness of the truth that can flow out of your pen. This experience offers a group of five women the chance to go in and mine for some more.

Group Testimonials

Here’s what it’s like to participate in one of the groups I offer—right out of the mouths of my clients. Trust them, they know.

Read Testimonials

Lael creates heart-opening, mind-opening, body-opening, possibility-opening structures in which women can play. She gives us guides and guidance and ways to pay attention. And then she gives us total permission to ignore all of it.

It was the perfect cocktail of masterful orchestration and gentle coaxing. The group settled into itself and in the deadest part of winter and magic happened.

I am profoundly grateful Lael has created this space to learn and grow, gather and discuss, and to take action. I’m learning on multiple levels.

Something incredible happened in this intimate group of women that helped me see myself more clearly. It blew me away.
