Why Attend This Class?
Ah, 'tis the season of giving and it's supposed to feel great, yet for many of us, it's not quite that simple. Do you recognize any of these patterns in your life?
- Sometimes you give too much, and feel exhausted, depleted, frustrated or resentful that you're not receiving enough back.
- It may be hard for you to ask for what you want. It seems as if it should be obvious. Why don't other people just give to you what you give to them?
- When you do ask for something, it might come out like a complaint or demand or just have a lot of extra charge to it, because you've held it in for so long.
- Even when you do ask for what you want, you don't necessarily get it, so it can sometimes feel like it's not worth the trouble to ask.
- Sometimes the people to whom you given so much don't seem as appreciative as you wish they were.
In this class we'll discuss and then practice tools from the Wheel of Consent, a simple yet profound tool for learning how to both give and receive in ways that feel nourishing and satisfying to you and others.
Life and relationships really do get easier with Conscious Girlfriend skills.

The Conscious Girlfriend Academy is here to help
lesbians, queer women and women-loving NB folx
have the love life you truly want.
Why Join Us?
Because Your Heart is Worth It.
Lesbians and queer women are courageous and powerful,
and relationships between women
can be the very best relationships on the planet.
We deserve happy, healthy love --
and we can have it!
But because two women can bond so deeply and quickly,
and because we often lack the know-how to date
in smart-for-our-heart ways,
our relationships can also go bad fast --
if you don't choose a partner wisely,
or don't have the skill, compassion and self-awareness
to navigate conflicts when they arise.
The Conscious Girlfriend Academy exists to support
women who value growth, and are willing to take action
to learn how to be the right partner, as well as find her.
If that sounds like you, we'll see you in class!
XOXOXO
