Imagine a world where going to Circle is as common and widely-accepted as going to a yoga class.

Imagine a world where authenticity, connection and compassion are values that are held above individualism, competition & fear of showing who we really are

Imagine a world where the healing power of sharing stories ripples from Circles into households, relationships, workplaces and families, and creates a more conscious, connected society.

Imagine being part of creating this change.

Imagine how your life would change.

This is the vision.

SISTER STORIES CIRCLE FACILITATION FRAMEWORK


Stepping into circle leadership is a journey of inner and outer transformation. Dazzling in its simplicity, and daunting in its complexity, holding space for a group of women takes skill, compassion & courage.

The facilitator training is designed to give you the practical and emotional tools to step into circle leadership and to design your very own Circle to offer out to your community. 

Our framework combines the crucial aspects of Circle theory, design & facilitation skills with the emotional, energetic & intuitive, ensuring you are not only practically ready to lead Circle, but that you have a brimming emotional toolkit.


With live classes held every two weeks, opportunities to attend Circles facilitated by a variety of guest mentors and a community learning space, this programme will mean that you haven’t just learned about the core elements of Circle; you have lived them. 

You will have felt them in your bones, integrated them into your heart and experienced the transformative power of Circle space first hand, so you can take this beautiful work forward full of knowledge, confidence and with the power of community behind you. 

All of our live calls will be recorded and you will be supported by additional Q&A sessions with me to help you with the design of your individual Circle and a library of learning resources on Teachable, which you can come back to again and again. 


Modules are released weekly.

The training is led by Gemma Brady, founder of Sister Stories. 

Gemma is a documentary maker, creative mentor and founder of Sister Stories.  She has dedicated her life to creating spaces for people to tell important stories, be it on film, in writing or in their community. She believes in the healing power of storytelling and the power of the generous acts of both speaking and offering deep listening. Her 10 year career in has seen her creating BAFTA award winning content across a variety of media from documentaries to video games. A former Commissioning Editor leading Channel 4’s public service content for teenagers and now a freelance Series Producer of documentaries such as 24 Hours in A&E. Across her career, she has helped hundreds of individuals tell their most intimate, moving stories. She recently contributed several essays to 'As You Are', a book from Department Store for the Mind which celebrates our individual uniqueness and the importance of listening to the stories of our Elders. 

In 2017, Gemma created Sister Stories as a means of offering women an opportunity to come together and experience the transformative power of being seen and heard and has since held hundreds of circles in the UK & US. What started as a simple women's circle gathering in London has grown to a thriving, supportive movement women leading Sister Stories gatherings.


Our training is now CPD Certified



This is an opportunity for you to step into your feminine leadership, to become a lighthouse for other women in your community and to take the gentle yet bold step of leading women in circle.


We are building a global community, and issuing the call for compassionate and committed souls to join us on this road to creating spaces where women can tell their stories and share their experiences freely.


We believe in the value of real life communities designed to meet the needs of the local area. The way a group gathers in London, for example, will be very different to the way a group gathers on the Isle of Arran or a town in Iowa, and we encourage facilitators to create their circles to best suit their local area.
