Sisterhood by Dr. Sehin Teferra, Co-founder of Setaweet, Saturday, July 20, 2024

Dr. Sehin started the RTD with an introductory session. After a brief introduction, the participants shared their main reasons for attending this session. Most of their intentions revolved around gaining a deeper understanding of sisterhood.

Throughout the session, common sayings about women’s relationships were discussed, with a focus on dispelling misconceptions and understanding their origins. The central message resonated: unity is crucial.

The session aimed to inspire self-analysis into our relationships to overcome barriers to achieving sisterhood. It emphasized starting with improving our closest relationships before extending efforts to others.

The highlight of the session was the activity where participants were tasked with writing forgiveness letters. These letters were dedicated to those who had wronged them or whom they had wronged, emphasizing the healing power of reconciliation and closure. Some participants shared their letters with the group, fostering an atmosphere of empathy and understanding.

Key takeaways included:

• Recognizing the importance of self-analysis to uncover personal barriers.
• To understand why misconceptions about women’s relationships arise and how to avoid them.
• Emphasizing the need to make peace with our own identities as women.
• Identifying practical starting points for practicing and promoting sisterhood.
