How a Petals of Light™ circle works
Small by design. Steady by nature.
Six to eight women
Intimate enough that everyone is seen, and rotating so the circle stays alive.
Shared prompts
Working through journaling prompts together, on a shared schedule.
Women hold women
Peer-led and rooted in Dr. Allison’s approach, so no one is asked to do this alone.
Three circles
Root. Grow. Bloom.
Each circle is guided by archetypes from The Blossoming Zone™, so the room gets the medicine it needs, in the season it needs it.

The guides in the room
Eight archetypes, three circles.
The Blossoming™ Archetypes™ are the forces Dr. Allison calls on in a room. Each one steps in when the soil needs it.
The Root Tiller™
The Truth-Teller & DisruptorTurns over the hardened ground and brings buried truths out into the air where they can breathe.
The Soil Alchemist™
The Compost TransmuterShows that heartbreak and mistakes are not proof of brokenness. They are compost for the next breakthrough.
The Rain Invoker™
The Monsoon CleanserBreaks the drought of suppressed feeling and lets the storm wash away the dust of old exhaustion.
The Seed Whispering Scribe™
The Visionary & WeaverListens to the dormant potential and reminds her she carries a blueprint for spring.
The Pruning Alchemist™
The Guardian of Sacred BoundariesTeaches the loving clean cut, and the word no, so her energy is saved for the bloom.
The Greenhouse Keeper™
The Sanctuary ProtectressShields what is new and tender until it is strong enough to face the wind.
The Canopy Weaver™
The Communal ArchitectTurns a group of women into one living ecosystem, so no one stands alone in the storm.
The Sun Harvester™
The Solar CatalystBrings the heat, courage and momentum to claim a place in the sun.
“My tribe is women.”
