Patriarchal Collapse & What Keeps Us Human

What if the exhaustion so many women feel isn’t personal failure, but a sign that the systems around us are collapsing? In this episode, Gemma explores the rising sense of overwhelm so many are quietly carrying, and why Circle remains one of the few places we can stay human in turbulent times. She speaks to the magic and mystery that have held her this year, the truth that “it’s not you, it’s the system,” & the micro-communities that help us remember who we are. 🌿 Learn more about Circle Training with Gemma www.sisterstories.co/facilitatortraining

Why We Feel It In Our Bones

In this of The Circle Revolution, Sister Stories founder Gemma Brady speaks directly to the quiet, bone-deep ache beneath modern life- the part of us that feels disconnected even when everything on paper looks “fine" and how gathering in Circle can meet that longing. This episode explores: * Why the pain we feel is not just individual, but cultural and intergenerational * The difference between being “burned out” and being bereft * How Circle creates a space where grief, tenderness, and belonging can coexist * The importance of nervous system truth: how the body knows before the mind * Why so many of us feel called to spaces we can’t rationally explain, and why that matters
