Solidarity Scarves for the Global Sisterhood
Launching November 1, 2025, Matriarch Makeover and Turtle Women Rising are inviting women, femmes, and matriarchs in the making to join a simple but powerful movement: Solidarity Scarves for the Global Sisterhood.
This project is rooted in gratitude and connection. It’s about honoring the sisters who inspire us, who carry wisdom that strengthens their communities, and who—by extension—lift up humanity as a whole.
The idea is inspired by the “chain mail” letters of past generations—except this time, its scarves, stories, and solidarity being passed forward.
