My guess is you believe that too. You probably have a soul-deep desire to lead meaningful circles and step into a more village-minded way of being in your life and in your work.
There is a call on your heart to pour more of your magic into the spaces you hold and to trust yourself to lead circles that are meaningful and memorable (and have you walking away feeling nourished, not depleted).
Perhaps you’re already hosting circles and gathering women in sacred spaces for connection, but…
...you yearn to go deeper, to bring to life the circle you’re really dreaming of, led by a version of you that you haven’t given yourself the chance to become.
I believe a women’s circle can change the world…
the art & Skill of leading women's circles
Winter is the season of the hearth — gathering, storytelling, and remembering.
Join Circle Craft and you'll get to build the bones of your circle. By spring, you’ll be ready to gather your women in a way that feels confident, grounded, and true.
THERE IS SOMETHING MAGICAL, OTHERWORLDLY EVEN, THAT HAPPENS WHEN WE GATHER IN A CIRCLE OF WOMEN. WE BECOME GREATER THAN THE SUM OF OUR PARTS.
in that they allow us to become our most wise selves, while at the same time freely expressing our raw human parts. And the circles that offer the most powerful experiences are those that are artfully held by facilitators who have the care, confidence & capacity to hold them fully & tenderly.
You haven’t been able to gather the perfect fit women for your circle (and, out of desperation, you’ve fallen into some potentially unethical marketing traps or have given up altogether)
You’ve devoted so much of your time, energy and resources into a circle that isn’t serving you in return. (and it’s causing resentment and straight up exhaustion)
Women's Circles are potent spaces,
TEll me, does this sound familiar?
You don’t need to wait until you’ve gotten enough certifications, healed all your wounds and shadow parts, or achieved total perfection in your space holding to lead a wildly meaningful and memorable women's circle.
You simply need the support, resources, and encouragement to take your circle vision from dearly held dream to your dream brought to life.
you will feel empowered to host your very own circle that is a reflection of who you are & the gifts you have to share. We’ll hold each other through the process every step of the way. And we’ll practice doing it imperfectly.
By the end of our EIGHT-weeks together in Circle Craft
Together, we’ll explore
the matriarchal principles of relationship, nurturance, and equality, and learn the skills we need to cultivate and lead circles that are intimate, vulnerable, and ritual-filled.
And this is how Circle Craft will support you.
In Circle Craft, you’ll receive training in the art of leading a circle, so that you can stop wishing you would and actually make it a reality.
I’LL PROVIDE YOU WITH THE TRAINING AND SUPPORT YOU NEED TO LEAD A CIRCLE CONFIDENTLY WITHOUT FREAKING OUT LAST MINUTE AND CANCELLING (BEEN THERE, DONE THAT).

"I so appreciate the discussions addressing the needs of the host! My mind is blown from all the experience and wisdom Becca brought. She thought of every detail and offered it to us in an easy and accessible way. I believe that words carry immeasurable power and I appreciated the many quotes, books, and resources as well.
"Not only do you get a lot of really great information on holding circle, different ways to manage circles, but you also get to learn from others in the class about what they value in a circle, and I loved hearing all their circle ideas!
I loved all the ideas that came from rich discussion about ritual, appropriation, appreciation, acknowledgment,
facilitation."
I definitely feel more comfortable holding a circle. Setting the expectations as well as having a better understanding of how to deal with difficult situations that may arise helps with the confidence in holding a circle for me."

"I love the heartfelt experiences Becca shares in her video lessons. I also love learning from the way she holds space in our calls. Even though I haven't been able to attend live, when I watch the recording, the container still feels deeply held."
"I have loved the pace of the course, the content, and the shares. It really helps to see and hear what others are doing and struggling with to reframe my own successes and challenges. The most worthy aspect is learning that circles are imperfect and creating agreements to better support the intentions of the circle."
-Michelle, Circle Craft ALumni
-LISA, Circle Craft ALumni
"I've loved your grounded and calm energy, the pace and your wisdom."
-STevie, Circle Craft Alumni

"I've loved your grounded and calm energy, the pace and your wisdom."
Each week, you’ll have access to:
A live teaching and connection call with Becca and the group every week, each designed for you to go through the steps of putting your circle together while also receiving supportive connection with fellow circle leaders. There will be rituals, there will be Q&As with Becca, there will be journaling, there will be playlists!
A weekly worksheet, that will guide you step-by-step in planning and holding your circle, so that you don’t have to keep it all in your head and try to remember what to focus on each week. And, by the end of our time together, you will have created your very own circle workbook that can support you on your circling journey.
You’ll also be invited to participate in a private online connection space for sharing resources, talking through anything keeping you stuck, and supporting each other throughout the experience so that you don’t have to feel like you’re doing this alone. You will have a team of supporters and accountability buddies at the ready.

While I have learned the art of circling from many teachers, I want to honor the work of Jean Shinoda Bolen, and in particular her book The Millionth Circle. This book, and the teachings within, have been the anchor I’ve returned to when I’ve felt lost or unsteady in my own circles.
Beyond being a circle facilitator, I am a writer, host of the Belonging podcast, retreat facilitator, and community holder. I wrote the book, Root & Ritual: Timeless Ways to Connect to Land, Lineage, Community, & the Self. I’ve dedicated my life and work to supporting women to experience a deep sense of belonging by connecting with the cycles of nature, ancestral wisdom, working with their hands, and being in community.
I have been circling, in some form, for over a decade. While I wasn’t raised in communities of women deeply holding one another, when I experienced circling it became the catalyst for my own empowerment and aliveness. I hold, and participate in circles, imperfectly. But that doesn’t cause me to waiver from my devotion to the practice.
I have been a part of soup circles, hair-braiding circles, political discourse circles, herbal medicine making circles, and full moon & new moon circles. All of these spaces have offered valuable and important medicine for my yearning heart.
My life’s journey has shown me that we aren’t meant to do any of this life alone, that we thrive when we gather together intentionally.
Circles help us remember our way back to ourselves, back to each other, and back to a different way of being. Join me in creating even more circles around the globe.
We are living through a time of profound disconnection.
Many women are lonely, overwhelmed, stretched thin, and longing for places where they can show up honestly - without performance, without judgment, without pretending.
The truth is: community doesn’t magically appear.
It’s created by women who are willing to invite others in, hold a steady container, and make space for what’s real.
Women’s circles give us what the modern world has forgotten how to offer:
Shared Presence
Ritual & Meaning
Emotional Literacy
Relational Support
Belonging
...and a sense of being woven into something larger than ourselves
Circles are one of the oldest forms of community care. They are how women have always survived hard seasons together.
If you’ve been feeling the call to bring women together, even softly, you’re not imagining it.
The world needs more of us holding spaces where truth can be spoken and tenderness belongs.
This is cultural repair work.
And it begins with you.

What’s your refund or cancellation policy?

Plan for 2 hours for the live call (or replay) + 30–60 minutes of reflection or small tasks per week
Do I need any prior experience holding circles or leading groups?
Some of the women who join Circle Craft have attended circles and want to learn how to host their own. Some have led small groups or workshops before but want a more grounded, relational approach. Wherever you’re joining us from, you’ll be supported.
I’m not super “woo.” Is this still for me?
Absolutely. Circle Craft is grounded, accessible, and deeply human. We work with ritual and seasonal rhythms, but not in a performative or overly spiritualized way. Everything we do is rooted in presence, intention, and relationship — not aesthetics or dogma. Think earth, hearth, belonging, community care.
What will I be able to do by the end of Circle Craft?
You will leave with:
- a clear structure for hosting your own circle
- tools to handle conflict, emotion, and circle wobbles
- community agreements and facilitation frameworks
- an understanding of ritual, rhythm, and seasonal guidance
- clarity on who you want to gather and how
- your circle outline ready to go
Most women who complete Circle Craft feel ready to gather their first circle in the spring.
I still have questions. Can I ask you?
Absolutely. You can email becca@beccapiastrelli.com, DM me on Instagram, or reply to any Substack email. I’m happy to help you discern whether this is your season to step into circle leadership.
I am unable to offer any refunds for this program, so please be 100% sure you are in when you sign up.
