Who it’s for
Who is The Meadow for.
For women in evolution, becoming and returning.
Whether you’re beginning again, carrying a pattern you can’t quite name, or ready to journey within, The Meadow welcomes women in evolution: unafraid of facing their shadows, ready to meet their true gifts, and to help the women beside them use theirs.
Our values are rooted in integrity, respect, and transparency. Our community prioritises offline interactions and mutual support.
Every invitation is personal. It keeps the room safe for everyone in it.
Self-literacy
You were taught to read everything but yourself.
Every woman has a girl on the grass inside: the one she was before life asked her to become someone else. The Meadow is where you find your way back to her.
Your body speaks before your mind does. The tightness, the held breath, the quiet something is off. Most of us were trained to talk ourselves out of it — to doubt the gut, to be polite, to push through. Self-literacy is the skill of reading your own signals — and letting the few you trust read you too.
Your guide
Who is Gio.
A writer, a woman, and a guide.
I’m Brazilian-Italian, with farm-girl roots and fifteen years exploring the world as an expat. I think in systems, and I read patterns and rooms faster than most people. I wrote The Girl on the Grass and I Split Myself To Be Whole, and now I build places where patterns become power: for women rebuilding and becoming who they’re meant to be, and for those eager to safely journey within. I hold The Meadow, guide every Walk, host The Gathering, and hold ground in ceremony.
Ceremonies
Guided truffle ceremony.
You journey, I hold ground.
A ceremony is a deliberate step inward, held in a safe and private setting, with care before, during and after. Every ceremony begins with a personal conversation, intention setting, and alignment. It isn't held recreationally, and the preparation matters as much as the day itself. Ceremonies take place in the Netherlands, where psilocybin truffles are legal. If you feel called by the medicine, write to me, and we’ll talk first.
