The Power of a Closed Women’s Circle

There is a quiet alchemy that begins when women gather month after month, returning to the same circle, the same faces, the same shared intention to be with what is real. A magic that simply cannot be created in one-off gatherings.

This is the power of a Closed Women’s Circle —a place where you are not only held by other women, but invited into a deeper relationship with yourself.

Across a year of sitting in Circle, something profound begins to unfold:
you start to track yourself.

The places within you that want to soften or strengthen.
Your intentions.
Your patterns.
What you’re ready to release, to call in, to prioritise.
Your hopes, visions, and quiet dreams.

Each month, as you return, you pick up these threads, check in, and track yourself — becoming self-accountable.

Not the kind of accountability the world demands — no one here is measuring your progress or judging your worth.

The Circle itself becomes a mirror and a reminder. You hold yourself accountable simply by showing up again and again.

And through this steady rhythm, your authentic voice begins to rise... Not the voice shaped by expectation, not the voice you’ve been praised for, but the voice that lives in your bones — the voice that speaks when you feel softened, connected, and met.

In Circle, you get to practise that authentic voice.
Hear it. Recognise it. Remember it as your own.

And over time, that authenticity moves into your life — your relationships, choices, boundaries, work, mothering, community. Not because someone tells you to change, but because you know yourself more deeply than you ever have.

This is the medicine of regular Closed Women’s Circles: a truer relationship with your inner world that naturally transforms your outer world.

Closed Women's Circles for 2026

A Yearlong Journey of Depth, Devotion & Remembering

I would be honoured to hold space for 13–15 women in each circle — gathering nine times over the year in a closed container that allows true depth to unfold.

These are closed circles, meaning once we begin, no new members are added, the group of women is the same all year. The devotion of journeying together for a full year is what gives these circles their power.

In 2026, I will continue offering two Closed Women’s Circle groups:

Thursday Circle

Across nine gatherings over the year, you will be held, witnessed, and accompanied as you meet your inner world with more clarity, courage, and tenderness — and as you show up more fully in the world around you.

When we gather with consistency, within clear agreements, something ancient awakens.
A sense of belonging grows.
The heart softens.
The truth of who we are begins to rise.

What to Expect in each Circle

Rooted in the simple yet profound foundations of Women's Circle

No former circle experience is needed, because everything you have lived as a woman is already enough.
Your stories, your heart, your longing, your truth… all of it belongs here.

And if you feel nervous or tender about saying yes to this circle, know that those feelings soften quickly. They always do. They melt the moment you are held by the medicine of Circle itself.

When you step into one of Siobhán's Circle you enter into an environment intentionally crafted for you to exhale.
A warm, open, welcoming space where the ordinary world loosens its grip and you are gently guided into a more ceremonial presence — out of the thinking mind and back into the body, and intuition. Connecting back to your inner wise woman who has a deeper knowing of what to do next.

You can expect:

  • Entering into a space of natural beauty — a circle of pillows, an altar created with candles and seasonally gathered flowers, held within the beauty of a geodesic dome.

  • To be welcomed with herbal tea and bliss balls specifically crafted to support you in circle.

  • To be guided to ground and anchor into the space, so the noise of the day falls away and you arrive fully.

  • To experience simple, earthy ritual that anchors the Circle and honours the tradition of women gathering.

  • To be held by clear agreements that protect the integrity of the container and support a culture of deep respect.

  • To be given uninterrupted space to speak — without advice, fixing, or commentary — and to offer that same presence back to others.

  • To feel what it’s like to be truly witnessed in whatever is alive in you.

  • To hear yourself in the stories of other women and realise you are not alone — that our experiences echo one another, that we are more alike than we ever knew.

  • To sense community and belonging rising naturally, through the simple act of showing up as you are.

  • To share in gentle singing — weaving voice, breath and sound into the fabric of our gathering.
  • And on the occasion time allows, Siobhan will offer a medicine drum journey, dropping into a deeper shamanic dimension of your journey.

Who These Circles Are For:

These circles are for the woman who:

  • Wants deeper connection — with other women and with herself

  • Longs to slow down, soften, and remember who she is beneath the noise

  • Craves a space where she doesn’t need to perform, perfect, or shrink

  • Feels the ache for ritual, meaning, and true belonging

  • Is ready to track her inner world month by month — her intentions, her growth, her becoming

  • Wants to practise speaking from her authentic voice and carry that truth into her life

  • Knows that consistent showing up (even gently) creates real change

You do not need prior circle experience.

You don't need to feel confident, ready or unafraid.

You only need to have the courage to follow what is calling you.

Where do Circle take place?

A place designed for depth, for beauty, and for the kind of gathering that nourishes the heart & soul.

Our circles are held on Siobhan’s property in Kalorama, nestled high in the magical Dandenong Ranges — a landscape that feels like it remembers something ancient. 


Here, the air is cooler, the light softer. Towering mountain gums watch over us, and great unfurling ferns line the pathways like quiet guardians. Everywhere you look, there is deep green, moss, movement, and the kind of stillness that only the hills can offer. 

We gather in the Zome — Siobhan’s hand-built, sacred geometric gathering space created specifically for this work. Stepping inside the Zome feels like crossing a threshold into another time, another way of being. Its shape, its energy, and the way it holds sound and silence invites you to drop instantly into presence. 

Women often describe entering the Zome as being transported — out of the ordinary, out of the rush, and into a space where ceremony feels natural and belonging feels inevitable.

Kindred Words of Support

From past Women's Circle participants

““I never thought I was the right type of person for a woman’s circle, however I took the leap during my pregnancy, to sit with Siobhán in circle. It unearthed a deep longing for sisterhood and understanding of my wounds with other women. I can only describe this as a true coming home to myself.””

Bec

““The concept of a women's circle is something I had heard about but never experienced. Thanks to Siobhán, I now have an understanding of their sanctity. It’s hard to put this into words, but I hope this sheds some light on the magic that is stirred in attending a circle run by Siobhán””

Clare

“ “Siobhán holds all Circles with a soul-filled, humble assurance. She strikes the beautiful balance between safety and encouragement, which asks us all to be brave and return to what we already know. She holds the expanse so others can explore everything alive between all their grief and joy.””

Zianna

“ “Intuition, Depth, Compassion, Curiosity, Honesty, Wisdom, Vulnerability, Playfulness, Willingness. These are some of the words that come up when I try to think how to describe what it's like sitting with Siobhán. I absolutely love her guided meditations and her songs she readily shares.””

Claire

“ “I have been blessed to attend many of Siobhán circles and every one of them has been transformative for me. She has provided a space for all women to feel held and heard in a such nurturing way. She holds space for women to bravely share their truth without judgment or barriers. A powerful container of love””

FAQ

  • What is a Closed Women’s Circle?

    A Closed Women’s Circle is a committed container where the same group of women gather each month across a full year. No new members join once we begin. This continuity allows trust to deepen, relationships to root, and the work to unfold layer by layer. Each time we return, we return to a familiar hearth — the same faces, the same rhythm, the same intention.

  • What happens in a typical Circle?

    Every facilitator holds Circle differently — some circles feel like workshops, some follow the seasons, some centre around themes or crafts. In these Closed Women’s Circles, the heart of our time together is simple, ancient, and deeply human: women speaking to what is alive within them without interruption, and listening to the other women in return. This shared devotion to presence is what gives the Circle its depth. Around this core, we weave grounding practices, ritual, and song each time we gather. And when the energy and spaciousness allow, there may also be a shamanic medicine drum journey offered.

  • I’ve never been to a circle before, is everyone going to know something I don’t?

    Coming to circle for the first time can be a nerve wracking thing! The nerves evaporate pretty quickly. If not after your first, then after your second or third you will arrive feeling excited to sit in circle and keen to share what’s on your heart.

  • What if I feel nervous about sharing?

    Many women arrive feeling tender, shy, or unsure. There is never pressure to share anything you’re not ready to share. You are welcome to sit quietly, listen, breathe, and simply be present. Your voice will come when it’s ready. Circle meets you exactly where you are.

  • Do I have to come to every circle?

    When you commit to this Closed Women’s Circle, I ask that you attend as many gatherings as possible — ideally all of them. As a pillar of Circle work, we practise self-responsibility, which means consciously adding these dates to your calendar and prioritising this space for yourself. Of course, life happens, and there will be times when other priorities arise. This is understood. Your commitment is simply to honour the Circle by doing your best to be present whenever you can.

  • What do I wear to a women’s circle? Is there nudity? What do I bring?

    You can wear what ever you feel most comfortable and to be perfectly clear, these are not nude circles (though that would be fun!!). Simply bring what you need to be comfortable. Snacks and tea are provided but you’re welcome to bring some water. A journal can be helpful for times when you may want to write something down.

  • Can I bring my kid(s)?

    Babes in arms are welcome in Circle. Please keep in mind that our gatherings involve candles and a softly held atmosphere, so the space is not suitable for children older than six months or little ones who are actively crawling or exploring. Mothers know best whether this environment will feel supportive for them and their baby, and I trust you to make the choice that honours both of you.

  • Is this therapy?

    Women’s Circle is deep, healing, and often transformative — but it is not therapy, counselling, or a substitute for professional mental health support. It is a ceremonial, relational, and community-based space. Some women may benefit from both circle work and external therapeutic support.
