…for our Story’s’
In these writing groups, we will give time and attention to the prose that wants to be written from the heart. Wether you are published writer or just beginning to consider your writing path, even wanting to write as a personal enquiry for yourself, or the story you are dreaming about, or the poetry awaiting acknowledgement, there will be something here for you.
I have been holding creative writing groups for eight years, and have always included writing during my 30 years facilitating workshops. One particular online group began at the beginning of the lockdown in 2020 and empowered participants to expand their creativity, share their hearts and voices and have the courage to embody their ability to write. My focus now is on the second half of life and the empowerment of elder-hood.
Weekly writing group held online on Tuesdays 10am – 11.30am GMT for six months. October to April. There will be opportunity to write in quiet moments, share with others within the group and in breakout rooms. Held and led by Caroline with a variety of exercises to evoke the writer from deep within, to inspire heart felt writing and intentions.
Caroline is a profoundly inspiring facilitator and teacher and workshop leader. I was longing for a group that felt that it would really help me to write and to open up and I was guided to find Caroline and I am deeply grateful. Since working with her I am starting to write and to grow in confidence. I can’t recommend her enough.

There are many ways to help tap into our own creative skills, to open the imagination, to resource an inner understanding of what it means to be seen and heard. In these sessions we particularly focus on our ‘life stories,’ as a way to tap into what is ours to share and do in the world.
“I feel at home in Caroline’s writing group. I enjoy the writing and sharing, and surprise myself with new stories/poems each week.” Anna
Caroline as a creative dancer, writer and a meditation and personal development teacher with a love of nature, who has tapped into many resources that excite and inspire the free flow of different styles. These she will share with you. Bring your writing materials.

A Maiden To Matriarch exploration.
Do you find yourself alone, wondering how to implement your mission and bring your craft, writing, message more fully into the world? Do you feel that time is running out and there is a need to activate that deep longing for communal empowerment and support, to get motivated and remember your mission to thrive?
Arriving in the second half of life, or preparing for its transition, how do we meet the world with the wounds of the past and the wisdom gathered from our experiences? There is power in the unity of wounds and wisdom and of women coming together. When we speak and dance our grief and shame, accept ourselves and our story, paving the way for our soul’s calling, we support the future generations. The daughters and granddaughters who follow in our footsteps will benefit. Whether we are mothers or not, we have a responsibility to be the storyteller needed for the future. To own our legacy by embracing our soul’s contract.
Have you written the book you have always pondered on, created the body of work you have wanted to facilitate, or painted the picture that becomes part of the gallery exhibition you have dreamed of? Have you found fulfilment in your relationships and developed an eye for the beauty that is yours to see? Is the message from your digested story begun to be told, filling others with hope for the future?
We can help to empower each other when we come together, with time to do our inner work, to recognise what holds us back. To take time out for writing, dancing and being inspired by natural surroundings. Listening to the drum beat, we find the gentle dance that opens our heart, moves our tears and stretches our muscles just enough to feel the growth of our psyche’s presence. And then we know why we are here, and we take action to follow its path…
We will come together as sisters and friends, to bring attention to what is most important in our lives now.
A residential gathering for women entering or in the second half of life, to address the wisdom we each carry, to tend to the wounds and to dance ourselves free from their inhibiting forces. Leaving this retreat with deeper knowledge of who we are, new perspectives on our life story and a tool bag of resources to take home, and help us make the necessary changes for our future.
Includes a 40 minute post-retreat mentoring session online, to help you integrate the work onwards in your life.

Menopause: the key to matriarchal wisdom
With Caroline Carey
Are you entering the second half of life, marked by the physical changes that menopause creates?
Are you wondering what it will mean for you, or have you wondered if you received what you needed from it?
We are going to meet with the ‘great-change’ at some point in our years. We may fear it, welcome it or ignore it.
Either way it is going to happen.
Society will tell us to dread it, because it means we are getting old and therefore hold no value!
But what if our most potent value arrives post menopause?
We might be advised to take drugs to release us from the symptoms.
Yet those symptoms may well be a big part of the key to knowledge and the wisdom that we would do well to give our attention to.
As well as different perspectives, we need each other for shared experiences and wisdom. Those who have walked the path, and found the ways of the old to be more beneficial than our modern day thinking and suppressants.
Join me for a deep enquiry, some gentle dance and movement, drum journeys, and creative writing, enhancing our changes and welcoming this potent time of our lives.
A women’s gathering, for those entering or within the second half of life, preparing for or post menopause. It’s never too late to learn from this rite of passage experience.
Caroline is 13 years post menopause and has gathered knowledge from the experience with an understanding rich in ritual and rite of passage wisdom.
She has been holding workshops, including women’s empowerment gatherings for three decades.

Thirteen Stages of Soul Empowerment
Developing and empowering the feminine spirit, seeking the source of her souls embodiment, sculpting the path that she is destined to walk upon.
In years gone by, our universal calendar was measured with 13 moons, a matriarchal cycle before the patriarchal Gregorian system was put in place. As feminine beings we can reclaim and give attention to the natural cycle of the moon, following our own impulses, creativity, seasons and cycles, to meet with the natural rhythms of the environment, becoming aware of how we as women grow and learn from our matriarchal lineage and the calendar she originally bestowed upon us.
There are 13 lunar cycles in a solar year that have honoured the feminine.
13 has a secret and divine power, signifying the return of the sacred feminine.
The number 13 became feared because of its feminine power.
It is time to reclaim
‘The Power of 13!’
There are 13 online gatherings over thirteen months, close to the time of the new moon, where we use this cycle for empowerment and growth.
“As women we each have innate patterns of (feminine archetypal) behaviour and ways of thinking that can enhance or distort our lives. Until we strive to realise how as individuals we can discern one from the other, then the meaning of our existence is unknown to us” Caroline Carey
This circle serves as a prerequisite for ongoing space holder and teacher training with Caroline
