"Culture of Addiction | 2018 Festival of Faiths"
Becca Stevens is an author, speaker, priest, social entrepreneur, and founder of Thistle Farms. A victim of child abuse, she opened in 1997 a haven for survivors in a loving community, initially for five women who had experienced trafficking, violence, and addiction. Twenty years later, Thistle Farms continues to welcome women with free residences that provide housing, medical care, therapy, and education for two-year terms. The global market of Thistle Farms helps employ more than 1,800 women worldwide, and the national network has more than 40 sister communities.
In this session, healers will show how accessing feminine wisdom today can help us accept our deepest wounds, and provide insight and forgiveness that leads to healing. Additionally, speakers will help us understand our cultural addictions to materialism and success, and illuminate the spiritual and human costs associated with these systems.
