These guidelines are here to help us create a nurturing space where every woman can flourish. As we take this journey together, please keep these principles in mind at all times:

1. Nurture Safety: We have created a sanctuary where everyone feels secure. Cherish each other's trust by respecting boundaries and keeping shared stories within our community. If you ever feel concerned, please reach out to our community leaders (link to email).

2. Embrace Diversity: Celebrate the beautiful tapestry of our sisterhood. Open your arms and hearts to all backgrounds, identities, and experiences. Take care to use language that makes everyone feel welcomed and valued.

3. Grow Through Responsibility: We're all learning and growing. When we stumble, let's own our missteps with grace, offer heartfelt apologies, and look for ways to make things right.

4. Listen with Love: Give the precious gift of your full attention. Seek to understand with an open heart before sharing your own thoughts. Let's make sure that we allow space for every voice to be heard.

5. Gently Challenge Biases: We all have blind spots. With kindness, let's help each other recognise and overcome biases. Receive feedback as a gift for your personal growth.

6. Cultivate Growth: Our community is a garden of possibilities. Share your wisdom freely, and be open to new ideas. Remember, every interaction is a chance to learn and blossom.

7. Speak with Kindness: Let your words be a soft place for others to land. When disagreements arise, approach them with compassion and seek understanding.

8. Lift Each Other Up: Be each other's cheerleaders. Celebrate victories big and small, and offer comforting support during challenging times. Your encouragement can light up someone's day.

9. Engage with Joy: Your presence is a gift to our community. Participate with enthusiasm and know that your contributions, big or small, enrich our shared experience.

10. Honor Confidences: Trust is the foundation of our sisterhood. Treat the stories shared here as precious treasures, guarding them unless you have the storyteller's blessing to share.

11. Spread Kindness Online: In our digital spaces, let's sprinkle the same warmth and respect we would in person. Your digital footprint can leave lasting imprints of kindness.

12. Embrace Growth and Forgiveness: We're all on a journey of becoming. Approach feedback as a loving nudge toward growth, and extend the same gentleness to others. Forgiveness opens the door to deeper connections and understanding.

Remember, these guidelines are here to help our community flourish. If someone struggles to align with these principles, we'll approach the situation with compassion, offering guidance and support. In cases where repeated actions impact our community's wellbeing, we may guide individuals toward spaces better suited for their journey.

Together, we're cultivating a garden of empowerment, where every woman can root deeply and reach for the sky. Your presence here is a precious gift. Let's nurture this beautiful space with love, understanding, and the joy of lifting each other higher.
