Weaving Circle
A monthly women's circle where creativity, community and self come together.
One afternoon each month. Three hours just for you.
Imagine walking into a room where no one needs anything from you...
No one is asking you to solve a problem.
No one needs dinner.
No one needs a lift.
No one needs you to be "on."
Just women.
Natural fibres.
Hands creating.
Stories unfolding.
Laughter.
Silence.
Tea.
Connection.
Welcome to Weaving Circle.
A place where basket weaving is simply the invitation.
The real magic is what happens within you, and between us.
Yes, you'll learn to weave beautiful baskets using natural fibres.
Yes, you'll develop skills that become more beautiful with every circle.
But what women tell me they come back for isn't the basket.
It's how they feel while making it.
As your hands become busy, your nervous system settles.
Your mind quietens.
Your body softens.
Your creativity returns.
And somewhere between weaving each strand, you begin reconnecting with yourself.
This isn't just basket weaving.
Every basket tells a different story because every woman arrives carrying something different.
Grief.
Joy.
Motherhood.
Change.
Healing.
Celebration.
Exhaustion.
Hope.
Whatever season you're in, there's room for it here.
Healing doesn't always happen through words.
I'm Jules
Ready to Weave with Me?
As a relationship therapist, I've spent decades witnessing the power of being deeply seen.
I've also learnt that healing doesn't always happen in conversation.
Sometimes it happens while your hands are creating.
Sometimes it happens through shared silence.
Sometimes it happens because another woman simply sits beside you and says, "Me too."
Creativity has a way of revealing what words cannot.
Basket weaving becomes the medium.
The circle becomes the container.
And slowly, almost without noticing, you begin to find more of yourself.
A circle of women
There is something profoundly nourishing about sitting alongside women who keep showing up.
Not to impress.
Not to compete.
Not to perform.
Simply to be.
Some afternoons are filled with conversation.
Others settle into comfortable silence.
Some women share deeply.
Others simply listen.
Every way of being is welcome.
Over time something beautiful happens.
Faces become familiar.
Stories become known.
Trust grows.
Friendships deepen.
The circle begins to feel like home.
Vibes
More than a class
The deepest friendships aren't formed in a single afternoon.
Neither is trust.
They grow because we keep coming back.
This isn't simply a basket weaving class. It's a circle. A place where you'll come to know the women beside you, be witnessed through different seasons of life, and experience the quiet comfort of belonging.
But this commitment isn't only to the group.
It's a commitment to yourself.
A reminder that your wellbeing, your creativity and your inner world deserve a place in your calendar too. That once a month, you'll choose to pause. To step away from the demands of life. To make space to hear yourself think, feel and simply be.
There will always be reasons not to come. Life is full, and sometimes you'll miss a month. Your membership simply holds your place in the circle, ready to welcome you back whenever you return.
Because every month we're weaving more than baskets.
We're weaving friendship.
We're weaving community.
We're weaving a practice of returning to ourselves.
Is this for you?
-
You're longing for time that belongs completely to you.
-
You're craving genuine connection with other women.
-
You miss creating simply because it feels good.
-
You're drawn to the quiet, restorative power of creating with your hands, where creativity becomes a way to process, reflect and reconnect with yourself.
-
You're so used to caring for everyone else that making space for yourself feels unfamiliar, or even a little uncomfortable.
-
You're looking for a slower ritual in a fast-paced world.
-
You know the power of "busy hands = quiet mind." And in that quieter space, you can hear your own wisdom again.
-
You're looking for a women's circle that feels natural, welcoming and easy to belong to.
For centuries, women have gathered around creative practices to tell stories, process life's seasons, make meaning of their experiences and simply remember who they are. Weaving Circle honours that tradition.
What the weavers say:
~ Annie
"It had been a while since I had been in any sort of women’s space or circle, and I was really longing for deep in-person connection and discussions again. So when I saw that Julie was offering a story weaving circle I instantly wanted in.
I went for Julie’s magic, and the medicine of being with other women. But I also have been surprised to also find some passion again for using my creative skills.
Doing something with your hands while sharing and listening deeply with other women is so fulfilling. It was healing to be in a space again, with other women’s stories mirroring my own experiences. Gaining wisdom not just from Julie but from the other women who attended. It was just what I needed!"
~ Julz
What I expected when I joined Julie’s basket weaving circle was to learn how to make a basket and likely meet some like minded women.
That certainly happened, however I didn’t expect the depth of connection I’d experience with those women or the journey I’d take with my basket.
As Julie weaved her own basket with us, she also weaved lessons and insights for each of us through story medicine and her expert space holding. Learning a new skill as an adult brought up in me things I didn’t expect and Julie guided us all beautifully through every challenge.
I absolutely loved this experience. Highly recommend.
~ Emma. L
"I can’t begin to describe how powerful this was for me. Weaving with natural fibres, guided by story medicine, helped me reconnect with my lineage and reflect on my journey as a woman.
The women’s circle created a space of safety, support, and deep connection, allowing me to open up in ways I didn’t anticipate.
I leave with not only a beautiful basket but also a newfound sense of peace, clarity, and sisterhood. This experience was truly healing and incredibly fulfilling."
