Time to warm up with some great stock we can turn into soup.

Join the 12th Annual Litchfield T.E.A.L.® Walk™ on Sept 7, 2025, to honor Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month and support survivors. Walk, donate, or fundraise at www.tealwalk.org/litchfield. 

Tell Every Amazing Lady® is excited to announce its 12th Annual Litchfield T.E.A.L.® Walk™. The walk is set for Sunday, September 7th, 2025 at its original location, White Memorial Conservation Center (Activity Field) in Litchfield, CT.

Since 2009, T.E.A.L.®, also known as Tell Every Amazing Lady About Ovarian Cancer Louisa M. McGregor Ovarian Cancer Foundation, has continued to serve communities by spreading awareness, raising funds to promote a cure for ovarian cancer, and supporting survivors and their families.

The T.E.A.L.® Walk™ Program is a fun and engaging way to spread awareness, while also

celebrating and honoring the strength of survivors and their families touched by ovarian cancer.

Ovarian cancer has no accurate screening test, so the funds raised during this event are vital in

allowing us to continue to raise awareness, support our members, and fight for a cure. With your

support, T.E.A.L.®’s efforts can continue to expand with increased awareness and support for those impacted by this disease!

To support T.E.A.L.®, and anyone touched by ovarian cancer you can register to walk for the in-person Litchfield T.E.A.L.® Walk™, or the T.E.A.L.® Walk Anywhere Package at www.tealwalk.org/litchfield.

To support our cause, our survivors and honor Ovarian Cancer Awareness month we also encourage you to fundraise, form a team, or join a team!

If you can’t join us for the walk, you can contribute to the cause by donating at www.tealwalk.org/litchfield. 

Help us address this important women’s health issue head-on at the Annual Litchfield T.E.A.L.® Walk™.

 Let’s elevate women’s health together!

My retreats are themed around the questions; “Where am I? - in relation to God, to myself and to the world”  

We will address unmanageability and faith, violence within ourselves and how it manifests in the world, Intimacy and emotional sobriety, and forgiveness as a path towards bringing loving kindness into the world through Step 12. 

Throughout the Retreat, I weave my personal experience in recovery through the 12 Steps of AA, while referencing teachers such as Richard Rohr, Joan Chittister, Thomas Merton, Thomas Keating and Bill Wilson.

All meals are included: Dinner on Friday through Lunch on Sunday

Spend an afternoon immersed in the Poetry of one of our greatest literary and visionary geniuses, Emily Dickinson. Dickson's highly inventive verse widens the borders of consciousness and expands what is possible. In her own words, "My business is Circumference."

During this session, Teacher/scholar, Kathleen Kryspin will take you on a tour through some of the great poems of Emily Dickinson. More than just a reading, this tour de force will open up possibilities of a higher level creative and mystical life.

Presented by Lisa Hudkins

Through observation, meditation, and journaling, we will explore our spirituality in nature as we go through the seasons of the year. We will meet for two hours, each season, outside to observe nature during that season. We will then go inside to journal and reflect on how our spirituality has responded to what we witnessed.
