This support group is hosted by two powerful, loving women in our community: Kathryn Hairston and Shawne Woogin. Read more about who they are and their visions and intentions for the group.

Kathryn Hairston
I’ve studied A Course in Miracles, independently and in groups, since 1989. I’ve been involved with 12-Step programs for nearly 30 years. The tools I’ve learned from these spiritual paths, together with other metaphysical studies, have enabled me to heal my relationships and experience many miracles. My intention is to continue to live a life of miracles in Freedom and Love, and to share miracles with others.
I have a BA in Fine Arts and a BA in Psychology, and I’ve been able to enhance the spirituality in my life through my art. Having experienced a spiritual awakening and having learned my true identity, it is my joy to share with others who’d like to open themselves to miracles and spiritual growth. My desire is to provide a safe space of non-judgment for others to share, to listen with my heart and to be of assistance through Higher Holy Spirit Self to heal. I trust we can do this together through the power of Love and kindness.

Shawne Woogin
After spending many years struggling with codependency and weight issues, I am so grateful for the healings that have occurred through studying A Course in Miracles. One of the biggest lessons I have learned along this journey is to just surrender.
The 12-Steps teach us that we are powerless over these behaviors. ACIM shows us that our Higher Power will help us to see ourselves and others without judgment or condemnation.
Ultimately, the 12-Steps and ACIM take us to the same place, Oneness. Both help us to heal. I am looking forward to examining the similarities and differences and moving along this transformation together.
