Arkitekt| a blueprint for coming home

Arkitekt Circles are a nurturing space for self-exploration, community connection, and spiritual growth, intended for women feeling the disconnection between their longings and their lives.

The Arkitekt woman can sense the gap between the life she is living, and the person she knows herself to be deep down. She is tired of existing hand to mouth, and settling for status quo. She is questioning the things she used to take for granted, and awakening to her longing for connection and empowerment. She is determined to be engaged in the things that matter without shame, apology, or excuse. She knows this is her time to become, and she knows becoming begins with unbecoming.

I predicated the concept of Arkitekt on the belief that there is an original blueprint inside each of us, a dynamic design connecting us to optimum wellbeing, health, and purpose on this earth. If we build according to our blueprint, we will get a life where our insides match our outsides.

But we become disconnected from our blueprint as we experience pain and the lack of fulfillment of our three inherent needs: safety, belonging, and dignity. We learn how to pick and choose which identities we show up with; what shapes we need to take on to prove, please, perform, convince, defend, deny, protect–all in order to survive.

With space and time and kindreds to help, you can reconnect with your original blueprint and live according to your fullest design.

This return is done through stages of building, tearing down, and rebuilding, over and over again.

If you feel like you’ve lost your way and lost yourself, Arkitekt is a space to remember who you are and return to yourself.

I want to ask you a question, and that is: What is your life’s blueprint? Whenever a building is constructed, you usually have an architect who draws a blueprint, and that blueprint serves as the pattern, as the guide, and a building is not well erected without a good, solid blueprint. Now each of you is in the process of building the structure of your lives, and the question is whether you have a proper, a solid and sound blueprint.
