Learn Women’s History
in Various Ways
Gals Guide appreciates the different ways people learn. That’s why we offer online classes for people who crave meaning and equity for women, as well as time to pause and reflect on the bigger picture. We also have funny podcast episodes, women-centered gatherings, a resource library, a blog, and meaningful tribute nights.

Thank you for everything you have done to support me and my writing. I have always wanted to be a writer and without your support and the Gals Guide Anthology I would have never accomplished this goal.

Leah Leach & company bring together the best parts of feminist thought, history, and ideals.
— Kym S. Flannery
The Feminine Healing and Creativity Writing Workshop taught by Leah not only provides the connection to all the women that came before and parallels their lived human experience to ours, but also provides you with the confidence to write in your story after learning from theirs.
— Maggie Ingram
I loved every single class and I can’t wait for the next workshop.
— Ren M.
I learned about the qualities they possessed that helped them overcome obstacles they faced in their lives. This is important for all girls to learn about – even an old gal like me!
— Cathy S.

Upcoming Classes
Deep dive into the similarities and differences of two story structures. The Hero’s Journey is used in nearly every movie you’ve seen; however, women’s lives tend to follow the Heroine’s Journey map. Let’s learn from both with a women-centered lens. Let’s see what elements help us write our stories and help navigate our lives.
