About
Folkweaver is a project that brings people together in our quest to reconnect to ourselves, each other, and our planet as our primary pathways to collective liberation through writing, storytelling, art-making, and community building.
We collaborate with artists, makers, and community builders to amplify their stories and work, and collectively weave together the world we dream it to be.

Nice words
“Sara is a natural, heart focused, intuitive leader and the one to beautifully teach us how being in community is done.
”
“I can’t say enough good things about Sara - she is a revolutionary, magical person who brings so much of deep, transcendent value to the world, from playgroups, to activism, to her incredible writings. Sara is an activist in the truest sense of the word, helping everyone dream into what’s possible when we live with depth, creativity and accountability. Anything she does is worth your utmost attention”
“Sara’s ability to weave her skills of deeply thoughtful community building and holding space for parents to show up in true vulnerability has transformed my life. ”
“Your words, when I make time to read them, often strike resonant with me. Your dot-connecting, wild wondering, forever questioning posture. ”

Inner Child Meditations
At Folkweaver, we love creating courses and facilitating circles in our quest to move us toward right relationship with ourselves, each other, and our planet. In collaboration with Emily Smith, mother, nonviolent communicator, and UX designer, we’ve created an Inner Child Meditation Series of five guided meditations and integration journals to support our inner work, which is so foundational for building deep, connected relationships with each other.
