I have been observing that in many instances, we women are incredibly resilient, but we are also quiet. We quietly take on huge burdens and isolate ourselves, instead of bringing light to some issues where we could educate ourselves more, find more information about and become more knowledgeable, for example, about our own bodies, our own health, our own sexuality. Issues such as miscarriages, pel
vic health after giving birth, postpartum depression, sexual harassment, sexual assault, or raising our own children with depression remain as taboos and we often just talk about them in the fringes, quietly between the cracks of our daily routines. Feminine Harbor is an attempt to bring women together to hear one another, to help one another with their own stories, their own experiences. We are our most valuable resources. And it's also an attempt to give women a space to find their voices, to connect in real life, beyond the virtual world. Real meetings will be scheduled regularly and they will be posted here. With each meeting, it is my hope that those who decide to come, will find connections, will feel less alone. I hope we can share stories, share resourceful information, and help one another grow, and go even further in life. I strongly believe that it is time for women to organize themselves and to truly help one another by creating more safe, and feminine harbors everywhere. The topics for each meeting will be posted here along with the calendar. Suggestions are welcome. Sincerely, Carolina Miranda
Creator of Feminine Harbor
