For those seeking deeper connection, healing, and community.
This moment calls for healing, for connection, and for discovering the strength to carry your burdens together, making them lighter as we move forward.
Kumwe (pronounced koom-weh) means “together” in the Rwandan language, and in our space, Turi Kumwe—we are together. We hear you, we see you, and we walk with you.
At Kumwe, we believe that healing happens when we are together. Kumwe is a continuous space for growth and support, all year round. We understand that transformation takes time, and Kumwe is designed to respond to the ongoing need for community support. Every quarter is a season, and every month we explore a new theme.
Every month, Kumwe Circle introduces a new theme aligned with personal growth and communal support. Themes like “Laying the Foundations,” “Rediscovering Joy,” and “Honoring Boundaries” explore the intersections of family, relationships, silences, trauma, and body awareness. Through these themes, you’ll access practical exercises and reflections that gently encourage healing, understanding, and self-discovery.
Join us every week for our 90-minute Zoom gatherings, where we explore each month’s theme in the community. On the first and third Mondays, we hold Circle Sessions with grounding exercises, group discussions, and interactive activities to explore themes like courage in setting boundaries and resilience within family connections. On the second and fourth Mondays, we gather for Listening Circles—a dedicated time to check in, take questions, and integrate learnings together. Can’t make it live? Replays are available so you can engage with the insights whenever it suits you. (EST: Eastern Standard Time, North America; CAT: Central Africa Time).
We know that some topics can be difficult to share openly. With anonymous support, you can submit questions anytime on any topic, knowing you’ll receive a thoughtful response within 48 hours. This option ensures that every member feels seen and supported, whatever they’re going through.
Kumwe members receive first invitations to retreats, live events, and special gatherings. These experiences offer face-to-face connection with other members, helping you deepen relationships in a safe, empowering environment.
On the 1st of each month, our library expands with new tools, guided reflections, and resources related to the monthly theme. This curated collection offers support for your journey whenever you need it, providing material to revisit and apply as you grow.
A full year in Kumwe allows for meaningful growth and transformation as you explore all 13 themes. This annual membership includes special bonuses and occasional surprises. For those seeking a shorter commitment, monthly options are available with easy cancellation through your membership site.
Kumwe is a unique, intentional community where your story is honored, your experiences are valued, and every part of you is welcome. Join us on a journey toward healing, connection, and resilience.
Your presence and participation are vital. Show up as you are, engage fully with others, and take ownership of your experience and growth.

Kumwe is a space where your voice and journey are at the center. This relational approach to learning prioritizes your desires, questions, and challenges, helping you grow in a way that resonates with who you are.
I welcome the diverse experiences of marginalization (colorism, trans/gnc/nb folks, disabled folks, those navigating challenging ethnic or group identities), creating a safe space for us to learn, grow, and practice relational accountability. Liberation is messy—there’s no room for perfectionism or punishment here.
