Circing the Globe with Woman-Spirit

Nokubonga Mbanga

I first read the ‘Imagine a Woman’ poem while preparing my speech for a women’s day event. I felt a sense of inner power
as I read each stanza. In summary,
the poem said, “Bongi, you matter!”

My business ‘Self Insights’ empowers women by transforming their potential
into performance as they bring the best
in themselves to their personal and professional pursuits.

I first read the  “Imagine a Woman”

​with my deeper self and with a sense of freedom and fulfillment in myself.

I use the IAW poem to support and inspire women to reconnect with their authentic selves and to achieve their full potential.

Trusting Women
California, USA

“The 'Imagine a Woman' poem empowers me to know that I am the possibility
of women expressing themselves powerfully in the world.

​Wherever I am, I am ‘being with women' one on one, as that is my preferred form
of communication. I have 'selective hearing,' which makes circles and
groups challenging for me.

Author and Interfaith Advocate Norway

I read the poem as my daily meditation
​and grew strong enough to leave a dysfunctional marriage. I found my way home to my breath through the Coach Training  training. As I listened to the “Home is Always Waiting Meditation” every night, I noticed an immediate difference in my sense of personal power and energy level. I believe breathing is at the root of some of the major changes I would like to make in my life.

Celebrate Your Existence
Tennessee, USA

While searching for inspiration to use
with staff and clients at a non-profit, I found the “Imagine a Woman” poem. My initial reaction was — how wonderful would it be to be that woman. The poem has become a friend to me, often emerging unexpectedly in times of self-doubt or when a friend needs encouragement. Patricia's Facilitator Training is by far the most woman- and self-affirming program
​I have ever experienced.

Wild Girls Empowerment Camp Georgia, USA

I work at a domestic violence shelter and the poem has been helpful in inspiring
residents to choose a better way of living. The most meaningful  part of the IAW Training for me was writing a vow of faithfulness to myself. I still refer to it.

I offer "Wild Girls Empowerment Camps" for young girls.  I greatly enjoy the presence of the younger generation. Instead of "undoing" the damage of the society, prevention is a great policy!
