THE POWER OF CONNECTION THROUGH SHARED STORIES
Women Unbound explores life beyond the boundaries of age, identity, and background. Written over two years by women who started as strangers, this book is a testament to the healing power of storytelling, connection, and compassion.
In this free TRIBE Book Club session, we’ll come together to:
✔️ Reflect on stories of personal growth and transition
✔️ Hear from contributors and artists behind the book
✔️ Experience authentic connection in a warm, supportive space
"My goodness I am so glad I found this website! I have been a CLT since 2005 and have yet to find any actual appropriate education to address lipedema - I am hoping for further education opportunities!"
~Danielle R.
"Through you and all the others I have met along the way, I am in a much better place. I am grateful for all of you and will continue to follow you as much as I can."
~Melody K.
"Thank you. I am 55 and been living with lipedema from about age 14. Only in August 2020 heard about lipedema. An answer at last why I do not lose weight in certain areas. Understanding my body now do help. Difficult to find doctors in South Africa that know about lipedema. So thank you again for all your hard work and teaching us. Much appreciated!"
~Riekie V.
