Creative women's circle gathered in the Atelier Sacred Bloom studio in Amsterdam

A sacred space to create, connect, and play — exploring creativity as a source, not a skill.

Creativity is a natural, living force — something we all carry within us. In these circles, we explore creativity not as a skill to master, but as an inner current that comes alive when we give ourselves space, time, and permission to play.

We gather at Atelier Sacred Bloom to explore a different medium: paint, clay, vision boards, aquarelle, bullet journaling, and more. At the heart of each circle is ceremonial cacao. She opens the heart, heightens the senses, and invites a deeper presence in the body. Her energy is smooth and sustained, a gentle warmth that softens the thinking mind and opens a quieter channel beneath it, the place where ideas arise without effort and expression flows freely. We begin in circle with this sacred medicine, setting an intention and dropping into our bodies. Then we move to the table, hands in motion, hearts open, minds quiet.

This space is not about making art, and it's not about being good at something. It is about discovering how creativity wants to move through you.

Upcoming Creative Women’s Circles

Cacao & Vision Board | January 24
€50.00

Cacao & Vision Board | Envisioning the Year Ahead

As Aquarius season invites us to look beyond what is familiar, we gather to imagine what could be possible in the year ahead. This is a time to lift our gaze, to dream a little further, and to make space for visions that may not yet have words.

We begin in a circle with ceremonial cacao, opening the heart and creating space to listen to what wants to emerge. From there, we move to the table to create our vision boards, a slow and intuitive practice of collecting images, colours, words and ideas that speak to something within us.

Rather than creating a perfect plan for the year, this is an invitation to follow curiosity and let your vision unfold. To choose what excites you, what inspires you, what feels different, and perhaps even what feels a little unexpected. You don't have to know exactly where you are going. Sometimes it is enough to give your imagination a place to begin.

With scissors, paper, colour and image, we create a visual map of what we want to invite into our lives. A space for dreams, possibilities and the future that is quietly calling us forward.

This circle is for anyone longing to begin the year with intention, creativity and a little more freedom to imagine what is possible. No experience needed, just the willingness to slow down, play with your hands, and let your vision take form on paper.

Lovely words

“This was truly amazing. It feels so natural to come together like this. No awkward silences, but present silence. No forced conversations, but lovely little chats. No stress to achieve something, but just the joy of creating. Once I got home, I immediately bought paint and went to the ocean to paint.”

— Marije

“I always love Ella's Women's Circles; she is always so kind and calm and holds space for everything to occur that is <3 This circle was lovely and intimate with delicious cacao and painting, I wanted to stay for hours! Will definitely come back again.”

— Isabella

“Ella her creative women’s circle turned out to be such a beautiful surprise. We began by sharing our creative wishes and intentions, and it naturally unfolded into a beautiful aquarelle afternoon. We had laughs and beautiful conversations. Sometimes all you need is time with like minded souls to reconnect and be inspired. This space was perfect for that.”
