Sadly, we did not meet our goal this first try so we are closing the campaign. *womp womp*🙃 
As much as we would have liked to, the season was not ripe this time around for this fruit to blossom. And if the Women's Wheel teaches us anything, it's how to wait with patience and surrender until the fruit is ripe along with perseverance to continue nurturing the tree until it is. And as we are in this harvest season of November, we are grateful for the effort we have put forth into creating this project and grateful for the fruits of lessons we will take with us into the next campaign. 🍋

However, that does not mean your support goes unrecognized! 🎉 We so appreciate and value your contributions! 🙏They are absolutely necessary and have been the steam to our engine and have kept us moving along this path to serve the feminine. And we hope that we can count on your contribution to the next campaign! As we will be coming in hot and primed with even more embodied wisdom! 💯
As we rest in the understanding this campaign did not meet our hopes, we walk away with great learning for next time. As Nick said in our previous post, we have ideas for modifying the set and our goal next time. This is all with the feedback from you, all of our supporters and our marketing team. 

Please let us know if you have any feedback, you think would be valuable to modify the work or the campaign so we can build a sturdy bridge to the community that the Women's Wheel will best serve. 

Melissa: So, at this point we need a miracle backer(s) to meet our funding goal. Which, to be clear, we are totally open and available for! We understand the universe works in mysterious ways, and sometimes....at edge of our own comfort, beyond our own limited mind and expectations, we are released to the greater possibilities unfolding for us.
Now, we make one last request as this crowdfunding window comes to a close to see if you can help us make this miracle available to us now...by contributing directly, sharing directly with friends and on your social media.

And, if that miracle is not ripe for us now, we are still so proud of what we put together and we know the market is out there! They just might not be on BackerKit. We have learned so much ourselves from developing this project and it will not be the end of the Women's Wheel!

Nick: When we originally put together the $7000 goal, it was based on 500 units of each item in the deluxe set. As we plan for a possible relaunch of the crowdfunding campaign, we'll propose it less like a whale and more like a marlin- sleek and direct.

We'll have numbers based on 250 units and we'll rethink what NEEDS to be in the Core and Deluxe sets. We'll maybe include a deck-only option. We'll also launch on Kickstarter where the barrier to entry is lower and we'll have way more eyes just browsing through the platform.

I do have to admit I am disappointed, as this is my first failed crowdfunding project. But that won't deter me! I am so incredibly proud of what we've accomplished, and we WILL get it made and will be a great seller for years to come!

Melissa: Whether we are able to meet our crowdfunding goal or not, we will be hosting events regularly, in order to continue sharing the wisdom of these teachings and tools we've created for you. These events will be a great opportunity to connect, learn, and experience the tools to develop healthy, empowering skills for embodying your truth and integrity as a woman with other women, beyond limitations of fear, anxiety and social pressures. 

We have dreams for the Women's Wheel that are still unfolding. So, as we prepare for next steps we hosting an ongoing Women's Wheel Gathering. One of which is in person, in St. Petersburg, Florida, every 1st and 3rd Sunday. And another, will be Wednesday's on the web via Zoom. If you are interested in either of these, we welcome you to join us! Please reply to this email and we will share the event invitation with you.

Hi everyone and welcome to this first campaign on Backerkit!

This campaign is special in many ways, but I talked about all that in its description, so I won't drag this update out a lot. As you can see we exceeded the goal and are heading towards the first stretch goal. 

I figured, as Backerkit has so many ways to interact with the community around a project, I should make use of it and create polls around the stretch goals, where YOU can all decide which motive we should choose for these. I hope you like that idea as much as I do :)

I love where we are heading with this, and please continue to share the campaign on your social media. With this new platform, we are starting fresh and need all the support we can get! 

Thank you!
