Photographer: Tara Noelle Director, Producer: Saira Hussain Body Art: Breath of Henna DNA PROJECT Welcome back to our sacred community of womxn. You are here today because you are free. We live in a world with divine beings who have successfully taken control of their subconsciousness amidst their high performing lives. We have have been told that these incredible beings are titled; WOMXN. As womxn, we have hid our powers for too long. We have a responsibility to enlighten and encourage our sisters with bravery to adopt a new way of living; a life where their voices pave the path for our future sisterhood. The current continuation of dialogue surrounding empathy, compassion and intuition have been trending like pop culture. We must remember that these are not modern day elements, which suddenly have been created and rendered into our modern day beliefs. These are our values, our sacred gemstones and offerings from our ancestors and beloved mother earth. The journey of the divine began centuries ago with our ancestors and their alignment in the stars. As the sun and moon hold wisdom and truth to our eternal powers, guidance also comes from learned experiences and community. My journey with the Love Letter Community developed in the early stages of my teenage years. I developed an uneasy distance to the teachings of my own cultural upbringings. I had many questions because I was never a conventional thinker. My participation in society was bold, full of passion & all my friends were boys. I maintained a distance with womxn for so long till we traveled closer to Toronto. Meeting women like Mita Patel out of sheer delight and curiosity for one another's work, we built our relationship in an intimate setting without any foundation except that we were both inquisitive. Mita is my WCW for our workshop this week along with an incredible writer. Her blog 'She comes undone' is a publication of wonder and growth; learnings and great values. This week, I want you to encourage yourself to meet someone new, build a new connection and dive into a deep conversation without any barriers. We are an ever growing community of womxn who are built from strength, compassion and have the capacity to adapt to change. As we enter the nineteeth week of quarantine, I would like to suggest that we all take a moment to appreciate how far we have come. Let us face the patriarchal routines with our feminine powers and decipher new challenges with solutions for our betterment. We must remember that there is a force inside us that has been waiting in our hearts with unconditional love and she has been patient. Let us hear her speak. 'DEAR JOURNEY.'  The problem wasn't in not finding the right womxn, but to learn how to trust (we moved quite a bit throughout Ontario as Abu was transferred). Trust, loyalty and respect help build admiration in a relationship, a friendship and it was difficult for me stay connected to those who I shared a year of time with till my adulthood. What I've learned from my past experiences; having traveled often in my youth is that we don't find people to fill in our voids, but we learn how to build a home within our own paths of uncertainty. In the end, all of us have a story and we are grateful for the transformation that has taken place. The greatest adventure lies in the relationships we build with ourselves; those who we meet. The celebration will continue. Mita and I will be sharing why choosing the right words and writing your story is of value to bettering your mental and emotional health. Join us as we connect with our sisterhood to reclaim the feelings when celebrating our individual journeys. I will be opening the floor for sisters to join us and share their achievements these past 5 months. You being here is an achievement. I will be announcing the winner of our incredible SELF-LOVE bundle with 20 other magical womxn. Thank you for all of your participation. You can now watch the replay here (click button below):

'You are here because your words hold power. You are becoming.' LOVE LETTER WORKSHOP WOMEN'S WEEK EIGHTEEN - JULY 22nd 2020 Host: Saira Hussain, Love Letter Community Founder Co-Host: Eniafe Isis Adewale, Writer, Woman of greater inner wisdom Time: 11 AM EST (Canada & USA).
Welcome back to our sacred community of womxn. You are here today because you have broken into your wings. You are here today because you have allowed the weight of water to fill you. You have guarded your heart from pain even though those who had given you pain were extensions of your love and life. For years we have surrounded ourselves with the voices of others and avoided orating the stories within the 4 walls of our homes. It is time to rise out of the well with our powerful words so that we can live our life with sacred reflection. The mirrors of our sisterhood are here to listen. Each of us has a story to tell. Join the sisterhood this Wednesday. July 22nd to witness the powers of courage so that you too can process the words of your past so that you can make the most of your life's living. Using the power of words, sister and WCW Eniafe Isis has created 'allherwords' by simply telling the stories of other womxn. She celebrates all womxn and encourages us all to do so because no one else knows you better than yourself. If we give time to uncovering our powers, society will no longer soil the fabric of our skin. We live in a world of polluted thought and control. Let us share our stories with the womxn wanderers in our community to celebrate our individualities and accept that we too are mirrors of one another. No rank or level exists in this sisterhood. It is simply understood, served, created, manifested with the power of words. If you or a loved one has misplaced the use of her words with the weight of time and excuses, let us reframe our thoughts with the words we choose. Join us this week to learn how to write our own stories & embrace the power of the divine feminine to encourage our hearts to speak their truths and create the stories we know are real, raw and enough for us. We are an ever growing community of womxn who are built from strength, compassion and have the capacity to adapt to change. As we enter the eighteenth week of quarantine, I would like to suggest that we all take a moment to appreciate how far we have come. Let us face the patriarchal routines with our feminine powers and decipher new challenges with solutions for our betterment. We must remember that there is a force inside us that has been waiting in our hearts with unconditional love and she has been patient. Let us hear her speak. 'DEAR WORDS..'  "...this night something, again, spoke to me and told me write. And so, I started writing about Her. This woman, who was not me but a woman like me who was in waters similar to mine but was not losing or drowning. Instead she was gently fighting. Sometimes floating. Sometimes paddling fiercely. At all times finding her way. Keeping herself going. And this is what I needed. I didn't need the "success" story. I needed a mirror. A mirror showing me that it was ok to be in the shadows because, to be there, meant that there was also light (no light, no shadows). I needed to see women finding their way through the valleys. And I saw these exact women all around me but, and because, they were not deemed "influential" or a "celebrity" their stories were harder to hear, their faces harder to see and light harder to find. And so, this is why She is here. all her words is many things and I intentionally leave her definition open so that you can decide what she will be to you." - Eniafe Join us as we connect with our bodies to resurface the act of celebrating our individual journeys. Eniafe and I will be sharing the powers in writing your own story, using the power of your voice without barrier. When you hear her whisper in the darkness, ask her why and she will unveil herself as courage. JOIN US HERE |
