What we’re about
BELONG is a community for women 18+ who are looking to step into the most embodied, resilient, and empowered versions of themselves through the power of community and collective healing. In the BELONG Sisterhood, we connect over powerful discussions of personal growth topics like healing, self-discovery and purpose, life design, and more.
This space is not just designed for you to acquire the tools to aid you in your self-expansion. I want this space to be a place where you can feel like you can land, where you can sigh of relief, drop the tension in your shoulders and find yourself among other amazing women. You deserve to be seen, heard, and held amidst whatever you are navigating and growing into at any stage in your life, and my hope is that this becomes a safe haven where women feel like they can find their struggles and their stories mirrored in the sisters around them to cultivate support, resilience, healing, and joy.

Let's be real -- summer can trigger a lot.
From body shame and social anxiety, to loneliness and wishing our love life or friendships felt more fulfilling, it can quickly go from a Hot Girl Summer to feeling more like a Hurting Girl Summer. Does this sound like you?If you have a summer bucket list of fun, adventurous, flirty endeavours that you are keen on fulfilling this year, and you're looking for the boost in confidence to help you achieve it with radiant, sexy, liberated energy that will make you magnetic to all the magic you want to experience, this powerful session is for you.
Join me, Mariana Jimenez, Somatic Attachment Coach and Founder of Commitment to Growth Coaching for Women, for an intimate evening of healing and transformation using the power of Attachment Science to release our biggest blocks to love, confidence, and intimacy with ourselves and others.
In this session, you will learn:
- Why your biggest insecurities in yourself and relationships aren't just in your head, they're stuck in your body... and how to release them for GOOD using somatic healing practices
- Why shame is at the core of your anxiety about yourself and your relationships... and how to STOP beating yourself up

Get ready to walk away with a newfound, FRESH sense of self and confidence after this experience.

- Glow and Grow: A Walk for Women to ConnectScience World/Athletes Park, Vancouver, BC
Are you a woman in the Vancouver area who is looking to build more meaningful connections with other women who inspire you and are ALSO looking for deep, meaningful, supportive friendships?
Ladies, I hear you -- it can be HARD to make girlfriends in Vancouver. It's hard to know where to find like-minded women who prioritize wellness, personal growth, and deep connections. This event is meant to remove that barrier and bring together the RIGHT women who want to skip the small talk and experience a meet-and-greet like you've never seen before.
What you can expect:
- A fun round of introductions at the beginning for all participants to introduce themselves and connect
- A dynamic walk filled with rotations and guided conversation prompts designed to help you connect with several attendees over thoughtful topics
- An "Asks and Offers" circle at the end for you to pitch yourself and/or get help from any attendees on any questions or services you may be looking for -- you NEVER know what help could come through unexpectedly!
Each week, we explore new topics of discussion. This week, we'll be chatting about Manifestation: how to become what you want to attract to fill your life with magic, love, and wealth!
Guidelines for the Day of the Walk:
- We will meet in front of the Science World Entrance! Please text the organizer Mariana at 672-200-2912 if you're going to be late or if you have trouble finding the group!
- This walk will happen RAIN OR SHINE (unless extreme weather conditions). You will be given a 2-hour notice if the event gets cancelled last-minute! If the weather IS extreme, alternate plans will be made to meet at a nearby restaurant or coffee shop to still move forward with our gathering!
- Bring a water bottle and some cash in case you'd like a coffee or an ice cream!
- Bring your business cards or QR codes if you have a service that you are promoting that other attendees could benefit from.
If you have any questions or concerns, you can email me at mariana@commitmenttogrowth.com . I am thrilled to have you out for this experience!

- From Shame to Softness: Healing the Inner Child - A Women's Somatic CircleTrout Lake Community Centre, Vancouver, BCCA$19.00
Some of our deepest fears of love, trust, and emotional intimacy didn’t start in adulthood…They were learned long ago—when we were little girls just trying to be loved, accepted, and safe.
In this intimate circle under the golden hour sun, we’ll explore what your early childhood experiences taught yoy to believe about your worth, your needs, and your emotions, and how they're still dictating the outcome of your adult relationships and harmful self-talk.
If you've ever found yourself stuck in anxiety, self-criticism, people-pleasing, or shutdown in relationships (even the good ones)... it's not because something is wrong with you. It's because a younger version of you is still holding onto shame, fear, and protective habits that helped her survive—but are now keeping you from the life, love, and intimacy you desire.
It's time to come back to her. To soften the shame. To rebuild trust within and come home to the safety you’ve always deserved.
This isn’t just a women's circle. It’s a reclamation.### What You’ll Learn:
- The subconscious beliefs your inner child still holds about your worth, your needs, and your right to be loved
- Why people-pleasing, perfectionism, and emotional shutdown are survival strategies, not personality traits
- A somatic framework to identify and release the fear your body carries around trusting, receiving love, and being vulnerable
- Powerful practices to help your inner child feel safe with your adult self, so she can relax, feel protected, and open to connection again
You’ll walk away with a new, beautiful sense of safety in your body, a softened inner critic, and deeper trust in your ability to care for your heart—and let others care for it too.
This experience is for the woman who:
- Feels anxious or avoidant in relationships, even when she wants to feel secure
- Struggles with self-worth, fear of rejection, or emotional shutdown
- Can’t stop beating herself up, even when she “knows better”
- Craves deep love but doesn’t feel safe trusting or receiving it
- Is on a healing journey and wants a gentle, body-based way to reconnect with herself
- Desires sisterhood and safe, soulful connection with other women
Whether you're new to inner child work or deep in your self-development journey, this circle will offer you a new doorway: one into softness, safety, and self-compassion.
