### **Step into a circle of brave, creative souls.**

Hosted by **Desirée Maultsby, Founder of [Sacred Circle Institute](https://sacredcircleinstitute.com/wisdom-keepers) and Minister with Web of Life.**

This is a **non-judgmental, supportive space** where you can explore your personal story, reconnect with your body, and reclaim creativity as a tool for **healing and liberation.**
Through **storytelling, reflective practices, and movement-based art-making,** we will unlearn societal scripts, honor our lived experiences, and cultivate the courage to **show up as our most authentic selves.** This is not about making “perfect” art—it’s about reclaiming your **voice, intuition, and creative sovereignty.**

### **How It Works**

* Each gathering is **independent**, allowing you to join as your schedule permits.
* No art experience is necessary—this space is about **expression, not perfection.**
* Rooted in **process art**, the focus is on the **experience of creation** rather than the final product.
* We honor **all** **Queer identities and BIPGM** *(Black, Brown, Indigenous People of the Global Majority)* **-** all are welcome in this space.

### **A Process Art Space for Deep Liberation**

This **process-based creative expression** circle invites you to let go of expectation and **enter the unknown with curiosity.** Here, we **move beyond judgment and perfectionism**—allowing our hands, breath, and intuition to lead.
**There is no “right” way to create.**
**Mistakes don’t exist, only discoveries.**
**The act of making is the transformation itself.**

**This circle created and hosted by Desirée Maultsby,** the founder of **Sacred Circle Institute**, a sanctuary for transformation, who guides individuals to **unlearn limiting beliefs, reclaim their voices, and rediscover their inner masterpieces** through storytelling, embodied practices, and creative exploration.

Sacred Circle Institute offers a space to **pause, exhale, and return to yourself.** In a world that often rewards overdoing and overgiving, this is an invitation to step away from urgency and into deep presence. Desirée supports individuals in **unlearning cycles of depletion and reconnecting with their intuition, joy, and self-trust.** This is not about doing more—it’s about remembering who you are when you are simply being.
