Testimonials:
Kristianne
"So grateful, inspired, affirming.. Thank you from my soul & bones for creating & facilitating the group đĽ°đ¤"
Kara
"Brenda brought together an amazing group of women for the Women Who Run with the Wolves book club and created a safe a nurturing space for growth. Her facilitation was gentle but powerful, and she led the meetings beautifully. The book was great reading, but the real enjoyment came from the depth of connection with incredible women. The conversations quickly and naturally came to focus on supporting each other in vulnerability and healing. The discussions went deep very quickly, and created a potent environment for transformation."
Stevie
"A therapist recommended this book to me years ago and Iâm so glad I got to engage with it in this format with Brenda. The content of this book is transformative but i found the integration was greatly enhanced by Brendaâs reading of the chapters, the reflections she poses, and the collectivistic support - I found much personal growth and empowerment through Brendaâs work and facilitation. I also found the book easier to comprehend and break down through her tools and readings, more so than I would be able to do independently. Forever thank you for making this opportunity available!"
Maria
"This book has sat on my shelf for many years with me picking it up here and there. Being called to join the WWRWW group is when this book came to life for me. Working through the chapters and the discussion to follow with the group was powerful and deep. Helping me to reflect on the messages, and see other viewpoints has been a fantastic experience. The weekly meetups and facilitation led by Brenda is what truly made the impact. I highly recommend this for anyone looking to connect deeper to themselves and with others through the magic that is the Wild Woman."
Kerry
" Brenda as a facilitator created a lot of safety between the participants. She did not center discussions on herself or her ideas, instead she encouraged us to respond to each other and the impact/meaning of our readings. I did really enjoy reading the chapters which were very much so fables and metaphors for dynamics that modern women struggle with. The fact that we could listen to the recorded chapters while we wash the dishes or just relaxed was really really helpful and then the group discussions just created a lot of commonality and sometimes insight Into myself ."
Sandy
"Women Who Run With Wolves is the manual for a womenâs way in the world. Reading it with Brenda adds the dimension of being immersed in the journey while also having others to experience it with. The book club offered a place to be shown how similar the underlying learning was even though we each had a different way to the same page."
Vicki
"Brenda's WWRWW Book Club connects like-minded women in a supportive, judgment-free space. Her thoughtful prompts and 'come as you are' energy make every session welcoming. I'm forever grateful for the structure and support she provided to help us embrace our inner wild women!"
Julie
"I am thrilled to share my experience with Brenda Burke and her incredible Wild Women Book Club. Brendaâs passion for fostering a nurturing and engaging environment for women is truly inspiring. Her dedication shines through in every aspect of the club, beginning with the thoughtful creation of a dedicated website. This resource is a treasure trove for participants, featuring hours of insightful audio recordings and extensive worksheets for each chapter that guide us deeper into the material.
Brenda doesnât just stop there; she continually evolves the club experience by redesigning in-person meetings centered around our current book choice, ensuring they are both relevant and enriching. Her ability to raise provocative, thought-provoking questions for contemplation sparks meaningful discussions that resonate long after our gatherings.
What sets Brenda apart is her unwavering commitment to member engagement. Through the Wild Women Book Club Signal chat channel, she connects with us weekly, sharing current events that relate to our readings and encouraging us to explore the broader implications of our discussions. This creates a vibrant community where ideas flourish and friendships blossom.
Joining Brendaâs book club has been a transformative journey; itâs a space where I feel seen, heard, and inspired to grow. I wholeheartedly recommend this club to any woman seeking connection, growth, and the thrill of shared discovery. Thank you, Brenda, for your brilliant leadership and for creating such a meaningful experience for all of us!"
