Tiana Jacout - Co-Founder of Woman Fest - 'For The Love of Women!'

3/31/2018

Hello All You Wonderful, Brilliant Women,

I felt it was time to Introduce myself, I'm Tiana, Co-Founder and Co-Organiser of Woman Fest.

I'm over the moon to be able to be a part of something like this and to be able to share it with you all. The rise of the Feminine, the MeToo movement, Time's up, The Women's marches.....it goes on and on, and it's an extraordinary time to be a Woman as we see the old patterns and oppression being shrugged off as we grow into our wild and free selves.

That's why we made Woman Fest: it's a shameless celebration of all that makes us! To gather in a space with women of all shapes, sizes, colours, experience, all with their own gifts, their own divine spark, to reconnect, create and grow the network of empowered and authentic Women.

Now: to the concept of Radical Participation...... We know we've created a hard sell with this festival, we have no Headliners! No Crowd pullers! How are we going to pull this off?

The answer is we aren't....YOU are, all of you, every woman coming has the invitation to bring their knowledge, their art, their music, their experience. We all can teach each other something, and by giving that space for it to happen, we are creating a space of INFINITE POTENTIAL and the (terrifying for us organisers) infinite possibilty...

And for You, maybe a time to finally share something you've not been able to yet, or felt you couldn't, or hadn't felt supported enough to, but if we're all doing it, being vulnerable and brave, then something quite amazing will happen, that I have no doubt.

On a last note, I know the price of the ticket looks steep for many, you can always volunteer! But know that it is all going into organising the festival, FULLY catering it with the most amazing local organic food, and the spa.

I've worked on this project now for free for almost a year because I adore it, I've already pledged half what I make to two charities: The first is SARSAS - The Somerset and Avon Rape and Sexual Abuse Support, and the Other is Meena, a refugee women and Children's centre in Birmingham set up by my amazing friend Liz Clegg who I had the honour of working with in the Calais Jungle.
So we get to come together knowing that just that act is rippling out into the most vulnerable of the sisterhood and being able to help them from afar.

The last I'm going to say is we need you all now....if you believe in any way in what we're doing, share us! talk about us! Tell all your girlfriend's, invite everyone! We have the space, the idea and All the LOVE! We now need to get the word out!

With all my love Tiana xxxxxxx

Hi Tiana,

I hope the festival goes well for you and the other women who attend it.

I want to say something. The forces of patriarchy has caused a lot of damage and continues to do so. But women have played a role in enforcing such a system. Look at Theresa May, Hillary Clinton and other women in such positions who appear to prop up the system. Are they helping women or they serving themselves and their egos? My own story as a man is one who was brought up in a dysfunctional family, seeing the destructive forces of a alcoholic father and a mother who often stoked the fire. My mother and father were as good and as bad for each other. My mother, two siblings and I left my father when I was seven. These events have marked me for life and I use the wound to know myself and treat others with kindness and compassion. Each one of us has our shadows and until individuals and the system are willing to look at ourselves then very little will change. All humans together,

am from canada, would want to tell you all that i was able to put an end to my divorce issue and restore my marriage again, because i never wanted it to happen. i don’t know what came over my husband that he was filling for divorce, i etried to talk him out of it when he told me and he didn’t listen to me, i had no other option than to seek for the help of a spell caster and now am glad i did. Because if not for the help of spell, i don’t know what would have become of me by now because i loved my husband so much that i couldn’t stand loosing him. The spell worked like magic with the way and manner my husband change and started showing love instead of the divorce he was planning. i just too happy that everything is in place for me now. I would gladly recommend the use of spell to any one going through marriage problems and want to put an end to it.

You should be aware of the dangers of holding a function for lots of women, with no men there to preserve the public order. You risk encouraging exaggerated, irresponsible behaviour in many of your female participants. To behave sensibly in public, women need the presence of men to bolster their self-control. In the home, of course, it's the other way round: women have the upper hand, mostly via denial of sex.

Sincerely,
Duncan M. Butlin

Dear Tiana , I would love to send my 18 year old to volunteer at your festival her name is Isabelle. I'm her father and after I read about ur event I actually thought I would love to be a woman and come.
Normally I would try and blag a ticket as we are skint at the min.
In keeping with the ethos of ur event I thought it was better to offer our services ( not asked Izzy yet ) as the whole thing seemed to be about that. Hope it goes well for you whatever it response, big energy to you, Jonathan.
