invitation to conversation

Our last picnic (yeh, I forgot to post!), was an exploration of personal threshold crossings, moments that changed us, or marked us, or planted a seed — or acted as mirrors.

Regardless of how big the change, how deep the mark, or profound the realization., this kind of thing happens all the time when the world inside us meets the world around us.

Though, I think we often miss it, pass by it fast, (maybe it feels small because it’s so personal to us, but I don’t think it is small, or even measurable), and we don’t get to notice, acknowledge the change, the work involved in getting here, the joy or pain or both and more, the mystery and dimensionality of becoming who we are and who we might be next.

The inspiration for this picnic was “leave the castle”, a moment of awareness that scooped me up one day at a birthday brunch and gave me a view of the world around from a stone tower, built to avoid…to avoid what exactly?


UNDERMININGnormal is where deep-thinking, change-seeking women can find community, care and unhurried space for conversations we don’t usually get to have.
