I am (M)OTHER

Interactive storytelling and empowering guided conversations

to heal from feeling Othered

and reconnect to your Mothered self

The I am (M)Other-facilitated sessions are borne from the purpose to foster connection and conversation for women of all color, religion, culture, age.

Throughout the session you are guided to train your muscle of mothering (yourself) and celebrate mutual understanding, respect and unity with other participants no matter your background story.

During the sessions you are lead to reframe your personal journey.

The Method

The sessions are lead by Fatma Genç. In her work she builds upon the fundaments of Shakti Leadership (by Nilima Bath & Raj Sisodia) and the Heroine Journey as modelled by Maureen Murdock. Her journey is one across media and culture, having both worked as an actress and having lead projects at start-up-to-scale-ups like WeTransfer and Mindvalley, she prides herself for her broad scope of experience. In I am (M)Other she bundles a variety of methods, theories and tools:

  • role play + improv theater

  • generational storytelling

  • healing circles

  • public speaking

  • creative writing

  • Theory: Shakti Leadership, by Nilima Bath & Raj Sisodia

  • Theory: The Heroine Journey, by Maureen Murdock.

  • Theory: TheoryU, by Otto Scharmer

International & Virtual Circles

I am (M)Other is part of the graduation of Fatma Genç at Shakti Leadership. At times of a worldwide pandemic the sessions were transformed into virtual experiences, holding safe spaces for over 70 international women.
