Dear Community, 


What an incredible weekend we had at the Women's Leadership Summit!
It is always inspiring to be around so many women who are devoted to living into their dreams! And what an honor it was for me to hold the room on Friday evening with so much spaciousness and love as women tuned into their breath, their voices and their hearts.
Thank you to those of you who were there for journeying with me, and for supporting my vision as an artist. 

Women of Santa Cruz - tomorrow night is the free Women's Spirit Song circle!
And the Spring series begins on March 30th.
Please see details below.  

And, we are celebrating World Water Day this Saturday in Santa Cruz. Details also below. 

I hope to sing with you soon! 


Happy Equinox,
Heather
