Just wanted to blog a bit about Dhrumil's video post and the sherpa idea ... I love it. In my own experience of running groups for women and raw over the last 20 years or so, support is absolutely everything. The boards i am happy to be a part of, are the ones where everyone is "wearing their big girl panties" (lol) and don't get easily offended, but also where it is guaranteed you will get support for anything - be it good or bad that is happening in your life.
