Wisdom Weavers


  • Are you a woman over 50 who’s wondering What’s Next?

  • Are you wondering What Else Is There?

  • Are you Feeling Invisible?

  • Are you thinking, There’s Gotta Be More

There Is More!

Here you stand on the threshold of becoming an elder, a wise one, a sage, a crone. However you decide to label yourself at this time in your life, of one thing we can be certain:

You Are Full Of Wisdom.

Wisdom Weavers is a 4-month journey-of-the-heart for women over 50 that will support you to . . .

• Identify and challenge your stereotypes, fears, and expectations of aging

• Settle the debris from the past

• Harvest your wisdom

• Determine how you want to make an impact for future generations

Wisdom Weavers will gift you with the freedom and inner power to walk gently away from the past and into your elder years with the understanding of how, in your last decades, you will weave your earned and inherent wisdom.

I cannot say enough great things about this program. It came at a perfect time for me, and helped me develop a strong foundation for this next chapter of my life. And Colleen is a magnificent leader, guide, coach and facilitator.
— Jackie, Wisdom Weaver Participant

You either sign up for the in-person OR online option. You may not go from one to the other over the course of the 4 months.

Between sessions, you can expect to spend 1 - 2 hours of personal work to prepare you for the following session.

This program is for women and those who identify as women who have done enough personal work to know how to self-regulate and get support if the homework, which has the potential to go deep, activates an emotional or spiritual wound.


This class will help you think about the next phase of your life in a whole different way. Exploring the concepts presented in group discussion, breakouts, and in solitude between classes was challenging and rewarding. The activities were interesting, thought-provoking and revealing and have already manifested in concrete changes in my life for the better.
— Glenda, Wisdom Weaver program participant

Content

Sessions will include:

  • Journaling

  • SoulCollage®*

  • Guided meditation

  • Other creative modalities, and

  • Small and large group discussion.

*If you aren’t familiar with SoulCollage®, don’t fret; I can easily teach this simple, powerful process.

*BONUS*
In addition to the group sessions, you have one optional 1:1 coaching/spiritual guidance session with me during the 4 months.


I highly recommend joining a Wisdom Weavers group led expertly by Colleen. It was beautifully and soulfully organized to support us as we slowly opened to the moment and to discover what inspires us for our futures. It was as if we were buds again opening to how we want to bloom in the next phase of our lives.
— Ellen, Wisdom Weaver participant

Material Needed

In-Person Cohort
I provide all materials. If you have collaging images you want to bring, please do so!

Online Cohort

I will send you materials for one of our projects.

For collaging, you will need to provide:

  • Your own collaging image

  • At least 2 blank 5” x 8 “ cards

  • Various ephemera (which I will explain in your welcome letter after you register)


I am so impressed with the wise choice of topics and the exceptional depth of this program – both of which are not that easy to find! And I am equally impressed by Colleen’s supportive truthful presence throughout. The combination of all of these things encouraged and enabled me to do some of the deep reflection and deep processing that leads to substantive shifts in perspective that have the potential for real healing and renewed growth. Colleen’s passion for this topic and her deep care for her students was always evident. And the safe spaces she created encouraged a very rich group dynamic where everyone’s life stories enriched us all.
— Christy, former Wisdom Weaver participant

Community

This journey is as much about creating community as it is about your own process. Given that, attendance at each session is expected.

About Colleen

As a 65-year-old woman, I have had the privilege to look back on my full life and make peace with my failures and regrets. I have also found forgiveness as a companion. You can watch my TEDx talk here in which I talk about my journey of forgiving the man who caused the amputation of my leg.

The process of writing my memoir, A Leg to Stand On, gave me the opportunity to reflect on the patterns in my life and use those to my advantage in my later years.

I have a 29 year marriage, 2 grown children, a large extended family, and have buried my step-father and both of my parents.

I spent over 20 years working in non-profits supporting marginalized people.

I am a certified Life Coach, a certified Spiritual Companion, a SoulCollage® Facilitator, a retired SoulCollage® Trainer, and a Women’s Retreat Leader.


“In this course, Colleen provides a wonderful opportunity for self reflection in the midst of a small community of other women who are journeying in this later stage of life. She has a warm quality of presence that facilitates a sense of safety among those she has gathered. She creatively has put together a variety of experiences that lead one into deeper awareness of Self and one’s relationships with others.
— Marianne, former Wisdom Weaver participant

Wisdom Weavers helped me move forward, become unstuck, and have courage to realize some of the things I want to do, like unlocking a vault of secret gifts, cheered on by a team of women telling me it is okay. 
— Brandi, former Wisdom Weaver participant

Colleen is a wonderfully insightful leader. She uses her knowledge and life experience to guide us through the process of harvesting wisdom from our past to create a heartfelt vision of our future. I highly recommend Wisdom Weavers to all women who want clear intentions for their path ahead.
