< Back The Long Walk Gather the Women has created The Long Walk, so named because, throughout our days, weeks, months, and years of sitting in Sacred Circle, we become part of the Long Walk of our lives together as we continue to walk each other Home with deep listening, understanding, non-judgment, and love. The Long Walk has a predetermined topic each week and participants can share on the topic through their own personal stories, insights, and self-discoveries. These will be stories shared at the heart level, not head teachings. Sign up for our newsletter for the most up-to-date information on this Circle.

Our Mission GATHER THE WOMEN GLOBAL MATRIX (GTW) is a Grassroots Global Network of Women activating the Divine Feminine in Leadership by: Supporting women to FIND their voice, Empowering women to USE their voice, and Igniting women to DIRECT their voice to create positive change in our world. Who We Are Gather the Women Global Matrix (GTW) is a grassroots organization focused on evolving feminine leadership. For more than two decades, GTW has brought together thousands of women to form supportive Circles that help them find and express their voices. We believe every woman is a leader, and our model is grounded in Circle Principles and Practices to empower transformative leadership. Our Circles foster heartfelt connections and create safe and brave spaces where women can heal, empower themselves, and honor the Divine Feminine. Gather the Women offers an experiential journey into the Divine Feminine, drawing on personal life experiences as the foundation to a transformative path to inner wisdom. We support women in becoming activists, role models, or whatever they choose, aligning with shared values of Community, Collaboration, Communication, Cooperation, Commitment, Consensus, and Co-Creation. We believe women seek deep and meaningful conversations that nurture their sense of self and build the confidence to make an impact in the world. As Marilyn Nyborg, a founding mother, said, “When women rise, all of humanity is lifted.”

< Back GTW Temple In a world that tells us to constantly do , Gather the Women provides space to simply be . For many women, the opportunity to pause - to embrace stillness, slow down, and prioritize self-care - is rare. Temple offers a place to find balance, explore yourself, and be held in presence, without the need to engage or do . It is a time and place to rediscover the depth of simply BEing.

< Back Circle Conversations The purpose of Circle Conversations is to provide training about Circles. It's a place for women new to Circle to come learn, and a place for those experienced in Circle to hone their skills and knowledge. Format varies from a presenter sharing about a specific topic and then having small break-out Circles to discuss it, to having a brainstorming session. At the end, women are invited to share what is happening in their own, local in-person Circles. Sign up for our newsletter for the most up-to-date information on this Circle. The Next Circle Conversations Note: Circle Conversations will be taking a break in December. Our focus for 2026 will be "Back to Basics". Please check back here for details in January 2026.

< Back New Moon Singing Circle New Moon Singing Circle: A Sacred Invitation to Resonance and Renewal Each month, on the day of the new moon at 2pm PT, Gather the Women invites you to join a sacred circle of song, held virtually on Zoom. This is a space to soften, to listen, and to attune our hearts to the rhythms of the Earth and the wisdom of the moon. Due to Zoom constraints, we cannot lift our voices in harmony together. The circle leader will be heard guiding the experience, while participants will remain muted. Yet each of us is invited to sing, hum, drum, or simply receive in our own sacred space, contributing to a shared field of resonance. Music videos may be added to enhance the experience. Let us gather in resonance, weaving sound and spirit into the heart of our global sisterhood. The Next New Moon Singing Circle This month, we learn the beautiful song Magdalene, written by Olive MacDonagh Host(s): Judith H.P. and Dawn G. Date: Friday, December 19, 2025 Time: 2pm (PT) | 3pm (MT) | 4pm (CT) | 5pm (ET) Duration: 60 Minutes Magdalene Lyrics by Olive MacDonagh Chorus Magdalene, Magdalene, we’re calling out your name. Magdalene, sweet Magdalene, we’ll never be the same We’re calling back our power from a place within our hearts To balance the divine within ourselves, whole and holy once again. Chorus With the waters of this sacred land, we bless our feet, we bless our hands With the oil of rose and frankincense, we can trust in you again. Chorus In a land of hidden mysteries, your truth will find a way. Through bridges, a path of righteousness, we ignite your radiant flame. Chorus We feel your spirit, see your dove, we call you with the cross. A place for peace, a place for truth, for love to be our boss. Chorus Stay a while with me, oh love, stay a while with me. Find a place inside my heart, a place you will always be. Chorus
