Women of Earth Tour Brazil -
March / April 2025
with Anne-Chloé Destremau, Danielle Barros, Vera Franco & the Women of Earth in Brazil
First workshop: Let Your Seed Speak - Belo Horizonte
After the Women of Earth Tour Europe 2024, Danielle Barros calls me and says "I want a Women of Earth Tour in Brazil". I say "ok", somehow aware of the attention, connection and work that it takes to build up a Women of Earth Tour. I tell Danielle "You are the spaceholder for this Tour, and Vera and I will support you and empower the spaceholders for the different spaces." Danielle nods and takes off.
Three days later, three women announce they want to organize events in Brazil: Cristina in Belo Horizonte, Mariana Stock in Garopaba, and Jessica in Sao Paulo. As the preparation unfold, we meet the hurdles of soil-preparation: 'How do I talk to people about this?', 'I am afraid of being visible', 'I am so afraid of women and competing with them.' Danielle takes each women into Emotional Healing Processes, lay out context for how to make contact with other women, offer challenges. Vera and I keep bringing women back to 'What do you want to offer?', 'Why is this important for you?', 'What information are you getting from your feelings about your next step?'.
A couple weeks ago, Danielle announces 'Anne-Chloé, we do not have many women coming to Belo Horizonte and the plane tickets are expensive. What do we do?' I pause and sense and look at Danielle. She wants this event to happen. I say "We do it." We book the tickets there and then.
During the next two weeks, Danielle calls "The Women from my Possibility Team are coming." "The Women from my Rage Club are coming." "Women from far away in Brazil are coming!".
It happens: one day workshop "Let Your Seed Speak" with 16 women. I write to you from Belo Horizonte.
I can tell many stories.
The impression that I am left with is the hunger of these women to be creators of Possibilities for other women. Over and over again, I witness how the Brazilian women, despite their deep fears of being with other women, love each other so deeply.
I was a guest in THEIR village.
I got to live with 8 of these women of 2 days, we went out for lunch, walks and dinner. I am usually scared of doing both: delivering a workshop and living with the same women, because I have experience over and over again how women (and people in general) want to give their center away to me, go silent when I enter a room, try to please me. I first kept a certain distance so these women could enjoy each other's company at maximum intensity. I quickly realize that these previously mentioned usual behaviors were not happening. They were being themselves, and embracing me into their web of relationship. I got to bathe in their field. For some reason, this was extremely healing for me.
I healed through experience that I can play full out, be the gameworld-builder-context-shifter-asshole-creator that I am, and that these women were fed by it, and they allowed me to be fed by their extravagant- clever-wild-committed-creating Beings playing full out too.
The breakfast became a hurricane of ideas, feedback, skills sharing, project starting space. The woman sitting next to be could barely sit, her legs were moving, she had so much to say. We all had so much to say. She says 'what is happening here?!?', I say 'An Archetypal Space. It is an intense space of aliveness, connection, closeness and vulnerability.' She asked 'Why aren't you shaking?' I laugh, 'Because my nervous system had grown to be resilient to these kind of spaces to the degree that I can hold space for them.' She nods.
And we laughed. Oh my godess, we laugh so much. Me trying to speak Portuguese. Misunderstanding words. We laughed about the crazyness of what 9 women drinking decaf coffee together can think up and take a stand for. We laughed about our old stories and our new stories. I got a healed in a shower of laughter.
These women traveled all over the country to be there, most of them did not know why they reported. They just knew they needed to be there.
Appreciation Cheers for Danielle Barros - the Queen behind the Women of Earth Tour in Brazil
The last two months, a whole new bubble of women reclaiming their power and their togetherness have been exploding in Brazil. The Woman responsible for invoking the rest of us into meeting and truly seeing each other is Danielle Barros.
I want to cheer, appreciate and bless you, Danielle, for who you are in the world, for who you are FOR the world, and for us women. Danielle, you are this unique paradox of Furious Rage for What Is Possible and Abundance of sharing your Heart so genuinely, so truthfully. Your ability to be naked in your own challenge calls of us, women, together to reveal our own challenge is, in my opinion, a testament to the ancientness of your Being. You have been with Gaia for so long, and now, is the opportunity (maybe the last opportunity) for what you have Known to be unleash. You are not wasting one minute of it.
I am afraid that you forget this about you.
I am afraid that there is not yet a Village to welcome you back into their arms after you have gone out for 3 months hacking reality for the benefit of the Women on Earth. That your welcome back would be made of flowers laid at your feet, waterfall baths, and an ever flowing feast of brigadeiro and pao de beijo (lactose free) while you hear the impact you have made in the world. After a day or two of celebration, you would get back to work preparing your next Chaos Storm for the women waiting at the gate.
This message is not a quite a Village Homecoming, but it is an attempt.
Now... about the women that you have invited through the door into the Garden, their own Garden, and our shared Garden.
Women from around the world, you have new friend, and they live in Brazil.
The land called Brazil is Feminine. Gaia is erupting everywhere she can in forms of lush forest, crashing waves, intensely hued butterfly, as well as poisonous soldier-spiders and coral snakes, and miniature wolves visiting the humans who are healing and transforming.
And the women there are here for it. The fire that is burning is their belly, in their bones, in their voice seems to come straight from the entrails of the field of Consciousness.
There are many legends and you can bathe in them. As the women of earth from Brazil gathered to reflect back on their learning and the impact on their lives today in this Roundtable: Ep.2: Legends of the Brazilian Tour, they recorded it.
The space is held in Portuguese, with English subtitles. https://youtu.be/wHxDitmcORI
The Women of Earth Brazil Tour this year was made of 4 worktalks, 2 Rage Days, 1 Day workshop, a 2-day Workshop and a Women of Earth Lab. The Women who held space, source and participate in this joyous cacophony of new Beings are Andrea, Jacqueline, @marianastock, Illyana, Camila Antunes, @Cristina_Santana, Daniela, Jéssica, @JuliGlori, Camile, Marcela, and @VeraLuisaFranco.
If you ever had an impulse to go to Brazil, it could very well be the Feminine, Gaia calling you. The Women there have open arms, hearts and beds for you (as I have heard from them many times). My invitation is: Go! and ignite your Fire.
Love,
Anne-Chloé
