Multicultural and multigenerational women celebrating together with joy and energy

Transformational wellness experiences for women who carry more than they show.

For women navigating transition, uncertainty, and exhaustion — and for women still holding everything together — the I Am That Woman Movement offers a grounded, spiritually rooted space to pause, breathe, and figure out what's next, while supporting holistic well-being across our six pillars of wellness: Spiritual, Nutritional, Physical, Mental, Emotional, and Financial wellness.

Be Still. Be Quiet. Be Open.

Spiritual

Cultivating a deeper connection with God through prayer, meditation, and intentional stillness that anchors every area of your life.

Nutritional

Nourishing your body with wholesome foods and mindful eating habits that fuel your energy and support long-term vitality.

Physical

Honoring your body through movement, rest, and care that builds strength and sustains you through every season.

Mental

Protecting your mind by setting boundaries, seeking clarity, and engaging in practices that promote focus and peace.

Emotional

Processing your feelings with grace, building resilience, and creating space for healing and authentic expression.

If You're Feeling Overwhelmed, This Is for You.

Right now, thousands of women are facing uncertainty — job loss, career disruption, shifting identities, financial pressure, and emotional fatigue.

Others are still working, still leading, still producing — but doing so without the support of the women who once shared the load.

Across every season, women are carrying more than ever:

  • mental overload
  • emotional strain
  • physical exhaustion
  • spiritual disconnection
  • financial stress
  • loss of clarity and direction

And too often, there's nowhere safe to stop and ask,
"What do I do now?"

A Grounded Space for Connection and Renewal

The I Am That Woman Movement exists to provide women with the space, structure, and spiritual grounding needed to pause, reassess, and move forward with clarity.

This is not about urgency or pressure.
It is about intention.

Women are invited into an environment that supports divine connection, restores balance across mind, body, and spirit, and encourages thoughtful, aligned decision-making in every season of life.

A Community Rooted in Presence and Care

The I Am That Woman Movement was created by Twyler L. Jenkins, a leadership renewal guide and experience architect who has spent more than 25 years creating intentional spaces for women.

What began as a personal spiritual practice of stillness, listening, and openness has grown into a shared rhythm for women navigating both transition and responsibility.

This work is not about giving answers.
It's about creating the conditions where clarity can emerge.
