Embrace & embody the full spectrum of what it means to walk through the world as a woman – in every area of your life
Join a global web of women devoted to embodied wholeness and ‘doing sisterhood differently’
I am a woman who used to believe I didn’t belong in groups of women.
For years, I felt caught in a tug-of-war…
- I craved attention, and was afraid of attention because it didn’t feel safe.
- I knew I had big things to offer the world, and felt scared that others might judge me for my grand ambitions.
- I loved the quiet, simple life AND the wild all-night underground dance scene in San Francisco.
- Was I ‘masculine’ or ‘feminine’?
- Was I too purpose-driven, or not enough?
- Should I be self-reliant or ask for support?
I wanted all of it, but I thought I had to choose.
I lived too many years thinking I was the wrong kind of person and the wrong kind of woman.
And over the past 20 years, I’ve worked with countless women who’ve been held back by some version of these same unconscious beliefs – that only certain parts of you are acceptable in order to fit in – which leads to never feeling like you fully belong anywhere.
A place where everyone can share exactly who they are, what they need, and where they struggle and be supported, held and guided as needed.
An impeccably facilitated group to explore and deepen our own growth and learnings about how we are in relationship with ourselves, our partners and the world.
A place not to fix what’s wrong, but to share in the idea of what’s possible.”
“There are many systems built against us as women, but our lives don’t need to be determined by the internal and external circumstances these systems create.”
— Kendra Cunov
…which is why I created The Collective.
“Every woman has to be part of something like The Collective … A sacred and safe space for sisterhood, where there is space for all our wildness and all of our wisdom that lies within our bodies. Kendra facilitates magnificently – in her teachings, and also by sharing her life with us — how to navigate all of our currents.”

“The Collective is a home and a community that you deeply yearn for and which you didn’t know you wanted/needed in your life. It is the type of community of women that feels rare, the type of community that honors and begs for your whole self, now, and as you evolve and change.
I would say that the women in the Collective (including Kendra) offer through their own experiences so much learning and inquiry into my own experience, that I don’t know how I got this far without a community like this.
It feels like the thing that has been missing all of my life, these types of relationships with other women.”
“Thank you for curating this community and holding the vision for a space that feels like the truth of how women can and do show up for each other. It is something that I feel has been culturally lacking in my life and which feels deeply nourishing to me.”
We can’t predict big life experiences, or the support we will want & need between those big life events.
One woman might be creating the partnership of her dreams and another might be going through the death of a parent, while many are simply in the midst of daily life that already takes so much from us.
“I can’t tell you how much I felt caught by the women in The Collective during one of the hardest periods of my life. That is priceless. And now I have some of the closest friendships with women I’ve ever had that nourish me in all the ways I long to be nourished in friendship.” -AC
In The Collective…
You can never be too big, too tender, too messy, or too powerful.
The Collective is unlike any other community of women you’ve ever experienced.
But The Collective isn’t about fitting in.
The Collective is a place where you BELONG.
The Collective is a place where you can talk about anything.
A place to whine, vent, celebrate, cry, feel joy, be needy.
A place to celebrate successes, wins, and courageous risks.
A place to lean into aspects of yourself you didn’t know existed.
A place to birth new ideas, ways of being, to live into your full potential.
The Collective is a place that holds all of who you are.
“It’s a web of women like you’ve never met before. I have always been uncomfortable, uneasy, and unsure of women’s groups before. The Collective has changed that for me.”
“One of the best parts of The Collective is continually allowing myself to be among the women, not trying to ‘fit in’…”
What makes The Collective different from other coaching programs?
You join a program… and then life happens.
You and your partner move across the country for a new opportunity. Or you are faced with a challenging medical situation. Family ‘drama’ rears its head.
It can feel awkward to talk about what’s going on in your personal life. Or you might feel pressured to “keep up” with everyone else, even though that’s not what you need right now.
Your journey within The Collective is deeply personal and tailored to YOU.
You can never be ‘behind.’ You never need to ‘catch up.’
Unlike other coaching programs, The Collective is a place to bring all of who you are — no matter what you’re going through or what you’re working on.

In The Collective we consciously, compassionately, and creatively embrace & embody the full spectrum of what it means to walk through the world as a woman – in every area of your life:
Relationship & Intimacy
Self-Love
Work, Business & Career
Sexuality
Pleasure, Purpose, & Power
Feminine Expression & Masculine Structure
Family
Spirituality
Authentic Living
In The Collective you will:
- Learn how to shift from competition to collaboration with other women.
- Receive regular coaching, support & practices tailored to you & your life.
- Enter into a space to reveal & be witnessed — with deep & non-judgmental listening — as well as to witness other women in their own powerful process.
- Gain practical tools to apply immediately, that will shift how you experience your life — from that of a burden into a sacred & heart-felt expression.
- Learn how deeply normal, similar & human all of us women are — across age, race & cultural differences.

There’s an African Proverb that says, “If you want to go fast go alone, if you want to go far go together,” and I would add, “if you want to go deep, go together.”

Your journey in The Collective begins with…

Create thriving, fulfilling relationships in all areas of your life
The path of designing your relationships from true desire is not for the faint of heart, but it is the most rewarding and fulfilling path I know.
While I will always be grateful for the business and family we did create, I wish we had known a way to step outside of these prescribed norms, and ask ourselves if there was a better way for us to love each other; if we could have a family and support each other without getting married. We could have saved a lot of heartbreak.
When my first child was one, I risked everything — my career, my community, and a life that looked like everything I’d ever wanted on paper — to follow my truth. It took all my inner trust to let go of the relationships that no longer nourished me & to develop relationships that did. What has come from this is a group of friends I know I can count on. I only work with people I actually want to spend time around; and career opportunities have appeared that I never would have had, if I hadn’t been willing to risk being vulnerable in order to create the kinds of professional relationships that really matter to me.
Then when I became pregnant with my second child, I watched my partner struggle with similar ideas — he thought he either had to leave, or marry me. Nothing in his life had ever shown him there could be any other option. He would try to make us a traditional couple and family, but something deep in his soul wouldn’t let him pretend, so he would leave for a time and then come back to try again. Over time, we found our relationship path — what was right for us. Ultimately we bought houses next door to each other, and now live as lovers, co-parents and partners in life. We are not only happier within ourselves, but also better parents and better partners to each other through forging our own path, rather than ‘settling’ or giving in to what seemed to be expected of us.
There are a myriad of other examples around my career path, as well as how I have created my community, and circle of friends and colleagues, all of which have taken me off the beaten path and been deemed unconventional by many. The path of designing your relationships from true desire is not for the faint of heart, but it is the most rewarding and fulfilling path I know.



Here’s what we’ll cover in Relationship By Design Fundamentals
Module 1: Authenticity

Module 2: Tell Me What You Really, REALLY Want

Module 3: Getting and Staying Curious

Module 4: Generosity is Queen

Tell me more about what a year inside the Collective looks like…
You can never be ‘behind.’ You never need to ‘catch up.’ And there is no one ‘right’ way to engage in The Collective.
That said, we do have a gentle seasonal arc for the content and curriculum of The Collective. While we may be exploring specific curriculum on a call, members are always welcome to come to all calls and can bring whatever questions and inquiries are most relevant in your life. (Even if you might think it’s “off topic”.)
In the Fall, we explore the Relationship By Design Fundamentals curriculum. This spans most of October, November, and December.
Then, in Winter, we have a period of integration. The themes for January, February, and March tend to organically emerge based on the needs of the Collective.
Next, in the Spring, we explore the Pleasure. Purpose. Power. curriculum. This spans from late April until early July.
For the Summer, we have another season of integration. Again, the themes and topics for July through September tend to organically emerge.
And then the cycle begins again.
Plus, you can always “choose your own adventure” and explore past topics and teachings inside our growing archive.
What are some of the themes you’ve covered during “Integration”?
- Authentic Radiance
- Bad Reputation
- Balance and Alignment
- Belonging
- Boundaries and Clarity
- Boundaries and Desire
- Breaking Spells
- Come Home to Go Big
- Container
- Foundation and Stability
- Planting Seeds and Intentions
- (Re)Birth
- Setting Intention – Through
- Embodied Desire & Devotion
- Stepping Powerfully Into the New Year
- Tending with Tenderness
- The Power of The Spider Queen
- The Wisdom of Your Body
- Wholeness and Fullness
(You’ll have access to all of these as soon as you join!)
How do I know if The Collective is right for me?
You may want a place like The Collective in your life if…
- You ‘hold’ so much for the people in your life, but don’t receive the ‘holding’ you need. You are ready to not have to do it all alone.
- You may have felt like you didn’t fit in with other groups of women, but you’re ready to shift that. You want to cultivate deeper connections.
- You believe your body holds wisdom even if you’re not sure how to access it (yet).
- You have a wild (and possibly ‘unreasonable’) vision for your life and the world, and are ready to be fully supported in that vision.
- You believe in honoring your natural cycles and seasonal rhythms (even if you haven’t always know how to).
- You want to feel fully expressed as a woman and embody your feminine expression, but you’re not quite sure how.
- You don’t know what your purpose is, you fear you might not have one, or you’re afraid to fully step into it because of the judgments of others or the changes it might require you to make in your life.
- You want to feel empowered — to set boundaries, tap into your truth, and make confident decisions about your life.
- You want to know how to feel true pleasure in your body.
- Your life feels like it’s missing the vibrancy you deeply desire, and you’re not sure what’s blocking it. You want to feel on fire for life!

- You’re ready & willing to let go of being ‘good’ in order to be YOU.

What if I’m ‘not a group person’?
What put my concerns to rest were a few things — one is that I understand and feel my energy in relation to things and everything about it screamed “YES!!!!!”, even through the fear. I knew it was exactly the right thing for me.
Then when I got started in the Collective, I wasn’t pushed to show up in any specific way, I watched and waited, feeling all the shit that was coming up and kept being offered the invitation. I watched how the women were all engaging, and I guess it allowed me to trust I was right and that I could participate. I felt the energy and connection of how everyone was showing up and honestly, I fell in love with the women and the group.“
“(The Collective) is filling a desire I didn’t really know I had (or at least not to the extent that I was consciously aware of). I feel grateful and fortunate that all the women who are members of the community are here and open to showing up as themselves in each moment and playing at their edges, wherever that may be in that moment.”
“Thank you for curating this community and holding the vision for a space that feels like the truth of how women can and do show up for each other. It is something that I feel has been culturally lacking in my life and which feels deeply nourishing to me.”
“I was surprised by how much I love the women who make up The Collective!”
Join The Collective
for a year of growth, practice, and community
The container is broad, but deep, because it gives us the potential to work with everything. Rather than seeking peak experiences through doing a program, then going back into everyday life, not knowing how to integrate, and often having the work fall to waste, The Collective is about long-term integration — through community as well as coaching — that meets you right where you are and works with you in a moment to moment way, to make the shifts you want to make in your life over time.
This is why The Collective is a year-long commitment to practice and growth. Something magical & tangible happens when we make a commitment—we remove the energy leak of the recurring choice-point. When we commit, we put ourselves in the crucible of the container, and life arises to meet us there.

Frequently Asked Questions
What if I don’t know anything about embodied wholeness?
When are the live calls?
There are two 90-minute calls each month.
In The Collective, we are dedicated to following the natural rhythms of the seasons, the moon, etc…
As part of this, the live calls with Kendra are held on (or very close to) the New & Full Moons, rather than on an arbitrary recurring day or date.
Also, since we truly are a global community, we vary call times to accommodate women in different time zones.
Call times vary between morning Pacific Time (e.g. 9am or 10am) and early afternoon Pacific Time (e.g. 2pm or 3pm).
All calls are recorded and uploaded to your member site within 48 hours.
What if I can’t attend the live sessions?
The group calls are a place to receive regular live coaching with Kendra, and there are women in The Collective who get enormous value through the recordings & engaging in the Community Forum.
Is this only for female-born/cis-gender women?
I have worked with many gay, bi & queer women in the areas of pleasure, purpose & power over the past 20 years. These teachings and practices are for all of us!
Is this a group only for young(er) women, old(er) women, mothers, single women, etc...?
We have had women in their 20’s & in their 70’s. Gay, straight & bi women. Women from all over the USA, as well as women from Europe, South America & Australia. There are many mothers in The Collective, as well as many single women, and women who have no desire to become mothers.
I'm happily married/partnered. Is this program still for me?
One of the biggest challenges I have seen in the women I work with is not creating time for pleasure, personal practices, or to follow their true passions once they are in relationship. Your relationship(s) will suffer if you do not engage in this work, and your relationship(s) will thrive if you do!

What if I'm 'not a group person'?
How much time should I expect to commit to The Collective?
There are 2 live 90-minute group calls each month, held on (or near) the New & Full Moons.
There is no obligation to attend every call, or to always be active within our vibrant global community-space.
You can never ‘fall behind’ & there is no need to ‘catch up’.
Many women remain longtime members of The Collective while periodically stepping away to travel or focus on other pieces of life, but the only women I have seen not get what they want out of The Collective are those that have not made space & time for the calls or the community.
This is not a space to ‘should’ yourself about the time & space you have available in your life; this is simply a call to be honest with yourself – and if you aren’t able to make the time, please don’t join The Collective.
One of the reasons there is a year-long commitment in The Collective, is because real community takes time. Real community means being seen & known. Real community means showing up for each other. Real community means we don’t always agree, but our love isn’t dependent on our agreement. Real community requires attention. Real community is knowing each other over time. Real community celebrates each other’s joys. Real community holds each other through challenges. Real community means you see my magic…and my warts!
I already feel overwhelmed. I’m not sure I need another thing ‘to do’...
This is a space to hold YOU.
About Kendra Cunov
Kendra has worked with thousands of men, women and couples in the areas of embodiment, intimacy, communication and full self-expression. She co-founded Authentic World and Fierce Grace, as well as The Embodied Relationship Training Salon (with John Wineland), and pioneered some of the most cutting edge relational work on the planet.
She works with organizations and leaders, as well as men, women and couples, who know that embodied presence, truth, connection and integrity are our truest access points to success – in business and in love.

“In this community there are others who see and honour me and what my potential is sometimes more than I do. I am both held in how I am feeling and experiencing things now and invited into a new experience and exploration at the same time. This level of trust in the truth of my ‘ANDs’ by others feels like I am being offered trust/knowing in my capacity and ability to move into even greater awareness than I sometimes can hold by myself. “
“If you looking for an amazing group of women, whole heartedly committed to a path of pleasure, embodiment, and authenticity…The Collective is for you.”
“I get a lot out of listening to the older recordings, when others share I almost always have an AHA moment.” — LS, new member
“{What I love most about The Collective is} The women!!! 🙂 And the space that’s created for us to be as we are. The words that come to mind is that we get to be real, like REALLY real and I get this sense that whatever I’m experiencing is valid. What I’m experiencing may or may not be validated but I am valid. There is space for me to have and share whatever I am experiencing. And it feels mundanely sacred.“
