The Dinner Club
In this season of life, many women find
themselves in quiet transition…
not undone,
not beginning again from scratch,
but standing in a thoughtful pause
between what has been and what is next.
INTRODUCING…
The Clearing
Wednesday, 15 July 2026
There is a moment — after the long work of becoming — when the forest opens.
The noise quiets. The path becomes visible. And you find yourself standing in a space that is wide and still and full of light. Not because the struggle is over, but because something in you has finally settled.
You know who you are now. You know what you are moving toward. You are ready.
This is The Clearing.
Our Dinner Club gathering is designed as a luminous arc of becoming — a candlelit evening where women in midlife and beyond are invited to step fully into their own light. To stop waiting for permission to be bright. To recognize that what has been burning quietly within them deserves to be named, witnessed, and welcomed.
Through thoughtfully guided conversation and an atmosphere that feels both luminous and deeply held, the evening creates space for honesty, expansion, and meaningful connection.
We gather not to perform or fix, but to illuminate one another with depth, dignity, and warmth.
The What…
Dinner will unfold slowly, allowing time for meaningful conversation, reflection, and connection.
Throughout the evening, gentle facilitation will guide the table through themes of transition, release, and renewal. At the heart of the night, we will share a symbolic ritual — simple, grounded, and deeply resonant — honoring what has completed its time and illuminating what lies ahead.
Supper will be complemented by a curated wine pairing.
Non-alcoholic options will also be available.
To preserve the intimacy of the experience, seating is limited to twelve guests.
As the evening draws to a close, each woman will receive a small, intentional gift — a tangible reminder of the light she carries forward long after the candles are extinguished.
This is more than a dinner. It is a night set apart. A table for women standing between what was and what will be...

“There lies truth in the Shadows. In these dark caverns is where we find our true selves - most often at the crossroads of mid-life.”
After serving as a salty sailor in the US Navy for nearly eight years, I studied Design and Art History and have worked for two decades as an editorial photographer and creative director. And - I've written a few books.
But my passion is Sisterhood. With over 30 years of extensive study around spiritualism, mythology and art history, I now work with women/femmes to reconnect to the power of the primordial Goddess.
I have led retreats in both Morocco and Iceland - bringing my unique vision to intimate and inspiring settings.

The third theme in The Night Between series, The Clearing is an intimate, candlelit dinner created for women who are doing the inner work, and are now ready to step fully into what comes next.
Held in the season of Athena's birthday, this dinner is quietly shaped by her spirit. Athena, goddess of wisdom, strategy, and purposeful becoming, did not arrive gradually. She emerged fully formed. Completely herself from the very first moment. Armed not with rage, but with clarity.
That is the energy we gather around on this evening.
The night will unfold slowly and with intention, a dinner prepared with care, set at a table dressed in olive, gold, and warm candlelight. Guided conversation will carry the room through themes of emergence, wisdom, and purposeful arrival. At the heart of the evening, a simple shared ritual honors what each woman now knows - the hard-won wisdom she has earned and is finally ready to trust.
This is not a workshop. Not a networking event. Not a performance of any kind.
It is a beautifully held evening for women who are standing at the edge of their own clearing, and are ready to walk into it.
The first dinner asked what you were ready to release.The next asked what you were brave enough to claim.This gathering asks something different entirely.
Are you ready to arrive?
