I Am a Full Woman

ttcstar — Thu, 08 Mar 2012 20:59:58 +0000

It is International Women’s Day today! And what better way to celebrate than to watch Linda Wolf’s truly inspiring video, “I Am a Full Woman.” Celebrating the inherent dignity of all women, inclusive of culture, race, color, shape, size, age, religious affiliation, spiritual belief, sexual orientation, abilities, & life experience.

The song “Full Woman” inspired this video and was graciously donated for use by the composer, Rachel Bagby. For more info about the dream that gave birth to “Full Woman” go to ez.com/fullwoman

Happy 2012!

The sun is breaking through the clouds outside our window on this beautifully grey Northwest day, and we are so excited to be back in the TTC office. We are ramping up for a FANTASTIC YEAR ahead and can’t wait to share all the news with you.

First, thank you to everyone who attended our December fundraiser. What an evening. Christen Lien’s music blew people away (of course), and Ms Perl inspired everyone. Check out the video of “Fraction Action” from the evening (CLICK HERE). Jonathan Frieman was hilarious and everyone who came let their spirits shine. We made new friends, brought in over our goal in donations of both silent auction items and money, inspired people to start circles, and signed people up for trainings! We are so encouraged by this success and are thrilled to have raised some FUNds to keep this work going.

So what’s next on the agenda? Check out what TTC has planned for 2012:

Good Times and Bald Times

Our Executive Director Linda Wolf and our lead facilitator Genevieve Smeeth led eight Teen Talking Circles this year for Seattle Children’s Hospital. What an amazing experience! These circles were filmed by the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center. Below is the first video, Meet the Circle. All the videos can be found at the Good Times and Bald Times Youtube channel.

Watch the video, leave a comment, and pass it on to friends and family. This is phenomenal work! And these young adults have a powerful message.

Welcome!
