What is a women’s circle? It’s the question I’ve been asked hundreds of times, and the one I never answer in quite the same way.

Circle is not a neat format or a quick definition. It is a way of being. A remembering. A practice that feels both ancient and urgently needed.

In this episode, Gemma Brady, Founder of Sister Stories shares what Circle really is, what happens there, and why this deceptively simple act of gathering to share stories and listen deeply has the power to soften us, heal us, and weave us back into belonging.

This isn’t therapy. It isn’t coaching. It isn’t about fixing or striving for outcomes.

If you’ve ever wondered what happens in a circle, or longed for a place to be heard without interruption, this conversation will give you a living definition, one that honours both the simplicity and the depth of this sacred practice.
