Circle: A Threshold Session

Welcome to Circle: A Threshold Session!

Before we create sustained spaces for dialogue, we need to pause and listen.

Circle: A Threshold Session is a standalone, gently held space for Black professional women to arrive, reflect and notice what feels present in their working lives.

This session is not coaching, therapy, networking, or a DEI programme.
There is nothing to prepare and no requirement to speak.

Instead, this space offers:

• time to pause without urgency,
• space to listen, to yourself and to others,
• and the chance to be present without performance.

This session is designed as a threshold - a moment of arrival and listening - before any further design or programming takes shape.

What to expect

• A lightly facilitated online session
• Silence welcomed as much as speech
• No introductions or pressure to share
• Clear boundaries and confidentiality
• No fixing, advising, or extracting
• Arrive as you are — no preparation required

You don’t need to explain who you are or what you do.
You don’t have to earn your place here.

Who this is for

• Black professional women
• Based anywhere in the world
• Curious about voice, belonging and safety in professional spaces

This is a standalone session.
There is no obligation beyond attending.
