– Reflections from the Inside
My Time With The Wild Women Army
For 6-8 weeks in April and May I participated in The Wild Woman Army container and performance/ shows that were held/ led by Hannah Wang… and it’s something I’m still processing. It was intense, beautiful, confronting, and deeply real.
What Hannah created wasn’t just a workshop and show, it was a raw space for women to express what often goes unspoken. Anger. Grief. Power. Pleasure. The things we’ve been taught to hide or soften. We felt it all. And we connected.
There was no playing small here. I was pushed to feel things I usually tuck away. I found myself crying, shaking, laughing, and mostly, noticing where in my body I hold stories that aren’t mine anymore.
Being in a room of women doing the same, witnessing each other, not trying to fix each other, was powerful. We weren’t there to be neat or presentable. We were there to be real. RAW, and we all had experiences and reasons for being there that were interconnected, our stories more woven together than we released at the start.
Hannah doesn’t just set you up to perform. She leads by being fully in her own body and truth. It made space for the rest of us to meet our own. Our queen bee.
For me, this experience cracked something open. Not in a dramatic, overnight transformation kind of way. But in a quiet, grounded way that said:
You’re allowed to be all of you.
I left feeling messy, tired, full, and more connected to the part of me that wants to live a little more awake.
If you ever get the chance to be part of this work, and you feel the pull, go. It’s not comfortable, but it’s real.
