The Next Step Group Intentions
  • We are growing and becoming the group you need us to be. This is a labor of love for us, and we need support from other women in and outside this group to sustain us as a resource and community. 

  • We are not obligated to attend meetings or do anything we do not "consent" to...we celebrate our NOs.

  • We welcome all female-bodied individuals and non-binary people who would benefit from joining our group by accessing this site or through social media and meetings.

  • We honor a person's consent and confidentiality; what we share in meetings is confidential unless approved otherwise. Consent and privacy keep us safe. 

  • We speak of religion, politics, race, sexual orientation, etc., ONLY when consented by all for a specific discussion. 

  • We strive to stay present in our daily lives by engaging instead of avoiding and responding rather than reacting.

  • We know that perfectionism hinders a healthy life and that we resist engaging in it.

  • We place self-care above obligations and to maintain a healthy life.

  • We agree that contributions sustain our group and are appreciated when you can.

  • We respect consent and only give advice when asked.  

  • We understand that we are one of a kind and celebrate our differences.

  • We build each other up and resist the urge to compare ourselves to other members.

  • We contribute to this group and share what works for us.

  • We give back to the community by providing resources and information and seeking to see what is needed.

  • We continue to forge relationships with other members with similar interests and hobbies.

  • We hold space for each other in our private online meetings and workshops.

  • We support each other as we determine our NEXT STEP in our journey toward a life of authenticity.

  • We attempt to have and maintain healthy relationships.

  • We are working to become healthier and know we deserve love and happiness.

  • We support healthy boundaries and provide information and resources to our members.

  • We do not judge, shame, or attempt to control others.

  • We aim for collective and individual interdependence.
