The Mission of the YoniVerse Monologues is to create a sacred and safe space for a diverse group of women to share true-life stories that are inspired by their embodied, sexual, and their mythopoetic experiences - with humor, power, and grace. To share the wisdom & compassion gained from our true-life experiences whether they were pleasurable or painful in an honest, original monologue crafted by each Storyteller of months within a crucible of women.
Although we stand on the courageous shoulders of the maverick Eve Ensler our mission is more diverse than only raising awareness about violence against women, although some of our stories will. This container supports women to also share secret experiences that have shaped their relationships, their work, their connection to the more than human world.
We are not spotlighting one type of woman or experience. Instead we are showcasing a variety of people identified as women to express the feminine in all her exquisite shades of humanity.
