We achieve this through our empowerment programs.
A truly powerful, fierce, and brave lioness is within each woman, prepared to take on the world. Sometimes, you just need to feel her roar to remember how strong you really are. Come find your roar with us. Join our proud sisterhood, find your proud pride, and find your inner power. Your journey starts here.

Why Lioness Rising?
Our Mission
Our Story
“The King of the Jungle.” It’s a catchy phrase, isn’t it? But if you look closely at a lion pride, you’ll quickly realize that the real power players, the relentless backbone, are not the males. There’s no single “king” ruling this domain; there are Queens. The very alpha status of the lion species? That’s largely owed to the lionesses.
These incredible females are the lifeblood of the pride. While male lions are crucial for territorial defense, especially against other roving males who would readily kill cubs to establish their own lineage, it’s the lionesses who are the primary hunters. They don’t just “hunt”; they orchestrate complex, cooperative strategies, often fanning out to ambush prey, working in silent, deadly synchronization. It’s not always glamorous – they often let the males eat first, ensuring the continued protection of the pride – but their strategic prowess is undeniable.
Lionesses are also master community builders and nurturers. They often synchronize their births, creating a communal creche where all the cubs are raised together. This isn’t just cute; it’s a brilliant survival tactic. With multiple mothers, there’s safety in numbers, shared care, and crucial social learning. They teach their young everything from hunting techniques to navigating the pride’s complex social dynamics, ensuring the next generation is strong and capable. They are fiercely protective, willing to fight to the death to defend their cubs and their sisters from any threat, be it a hyena, a leopard, or even an unfamiliar male lion. They are the stable core of the pride, maintaining bonds that can last a lifetime, far outlasting the tenure of any male.
So, while the male lion stands as an imposing figure, a symbol of brute strength and a vital guard, it’s the collective power, intelligence, and unwavering dedication of the lionesses that truly defines and sustains the pride, along with its’ alpha status.
The Undeniable Queens of the Savannah.
And that’s precisely why, to us, women are the same. We possess the same innate strength, the same strategic brilliance, the same nurturing spirit, and the same fierce protective instincts as these magnificent beasts. When women come together, embracing their shared power within their own proud sisterhood, their pride, they become an unstoppable force. It’s about realizing the incredible lioness that already lies within each and every one of us, waiting to roar.
That is why we are Lioness Rising.

FAQ’s
How do I know if my relationship is actually healthy?
We dive deep into this! Many unhealthy patterns are disguised as “love.” We’ll help you recognize the true signs of respect, trust, and genuine care, and identify red flags like constant texts, jealousy, or pressure to change who you are.
What if I feel disconnected from myself or unsure of who I am?
It’s common to feel this way, especially when navigating expectations from others. Our programs focus on self-discovery and self-love to help you uncover your unique strengths, define your values, and live authentically.
I see my friend changing because of her partner. How can I help her?
It’s heartbreaking to watch a friend drift away. We teach you how to spot the subtle signs of coercive control and manipulation, like isolation, changing hobbies, or a drop in confidence. Knowing what to look for is the first step in supporting her and protecting yourself.
My daughter is starting to date. How can I protect her from unhealthy relationships?
This is a critical age for prevention. Our approach focuses on empowering your daughter with strong self-love and self-worth so she understands what she deserves. We also equip her with the knowledge to recognize manipulation tactics and set firm boundaries from the start.
What is coercive control, and why is it so important to understand?
Coercive control is a pervasive form of abuse that gradually strips away a person’s independence, often without physical violence. It’s crucial because it’s frequently disguised as “love” or “care,” making it incredibly hard to escape. Understanding its tactics is key to preventing long-term harm.
How does Lioness Rising help women become "strong, fierce, and beautiful"?
Our mission is to empower women from within. Through our workshops, retreats, and events, we cultivate profound self-love, resilience, and a deep understanding of healthy relationships. We aim to build women so strong in their self-respect that they can evade abuse and live life on their own terms – the vibrant, authentic individuals they were always meant to be.
What does an abuser look like?
This is a crucial question, and the answer might surprise you: an abuser can look like anyone. From your friendly postman to a high-ranking CEO, there’s no single look, background, or stereotype. This is precisely why it’s so vital to understand their behaviours and patterns instead of judging by appearances. Our programs focus on teaching you to recognize these subtle tactics, empowering you with the knowledge to protect yourself and your loved ones.
Will I feel awkward or singled out at the experience?
Absolutely not! Our workshops and retreats are carefully designed to be safe, nurturing, and inclusive spaces. Everyone attending is there with a shared goal of growth and empowerment. You’ll find a strong sense of togetherness and support, where no one is ever singled out. It’s a place to connect, learn, and uplift each other.
Is my daughter in an abusive relationship?
It can be incredibly worrying to suspect your daughter is in an unhealthy relationship. Some signs to look out for include increased isolation, changes in her personality or interests, constant phone monitoring, or a sudden drop in confidence. Our workshops are specifically designed to help both young women and their mothers identify the subtle and overt signs of manipulation and control. We provide the knowledge and tools to recognize these patterns now and equip her with the self-worth and boundary-setting skills to prevent falling into such traps in the future.
Why do I set up my experience?
At Lioness Rising, we celebrate the unique journey of every woman and her pride (her sisterhood). We believe you deserve to have complete control over your life and your growth. That’s why we put the power in your hands: you get to choose the ‘when,’ ‘where,’ and ‘with whom’ for your retreat or workshop. This simple, quick setup ensures your experience is perfectly tailored to your wants and needs, making it deeply personal and incredibly special. It’s all about honouring your individual path to empowerment.
