The Circles

    Small women's circles in the San Francisco Bay Area.
    Honest conversations.
    A quieter way to rebuild.

    The Red Thread Project hosts intimate in-person circles for women navigating rebuilding, identity shifts, separation, single motherhood, and major life transitions.

    These are not networking events.
    Not therapy groups.
    Not performative spaces.

    Just small, thoughtful conversations with women who understand the invisible parts of rebuilding life.

    Currently hosted in the San Francisco Bay Area. Free to attend, by invitation.

    What these circles are

    Intentionally small.
    Deeply considered.

    Each circle holds three to five women. The size is intentional, small enough for honesty, slow enough for nuance, quiet enough to hear what usually stays unsaid.

    -

    Identity after rupture

    -

    Rebuilding confidence

    -

    Motherhood and invisibility

    -

    Emotional exhaustion

    -

    Financial resets

    -

    Loneliness inside strength

    -

    Starting over socially

    -

    Dating after divorce or separation

    -

    Ambition after survival

    -

    Who you become after life changes you

    “There is no pressure to share.
    No fixing.
    No performance.”

    Three circles.

    • 01Rebuilding identity
    • 02Emotional depletion
    • 03Financial independence
    • 04Invisibility while appearing strong
    • 05Redefining success after survival mode
    • 06Friendship changes after separation

    Not every woman rebuilding her life wants to do it publicly.These circles were created for that in-between space:between survival and becoming,
    between isolation and visibility,
    between who you were and who you’re becoming now.
    You do not need to have the right words.
    You do not need to have everything figured out.
    You just need a place to begin.
