Your Safe Space — for healing, learning, and return.
Women’s Circle of Malaysia (WCM) is a women-led wellness, arts and education company creating decentralised spaces for healing, grassroots learning, and ecological connection. Based in Malaysia, we offer voice-led circles, nature-based retreats, and community-rooted programmes that centre lived experience and cultural care.
Co-led by Ranessa Theyakaraja and Adelina Chan, WCM blends emotional healing, economic empowerment, and environmental practice — guided by decolonised, non-hierarchical approaches to well-being. Whether in circle, forest, or breath, we hold space for women and girls to reconnect with themselves, each other, and the Earth.
Our work is still rooted in that original spark, that healing is not performance, it is presence. Every woman’s voice matters. And I believe in holding space, together.

Our Story
Women’s Circle of Malaysia (WCM) began in 2021 with one clear intention: To create soft, sacred spaces where women could return to themselves — through voice, movement, and community.
Founded by Ranessa Theyakaraja, WCM was born from lived experience and a deep belief that creative expression is a powerful form of healing. What began as intimate gatherings soon expanded into a living ecosystem of monthly memberships, moon-aligned creative circles, girls’ programmes, and nature-based retreats. In 2025, Adelina Chan joined as co-steward, bringing with her a deep connection to nature, water-based healing, and the ecological wisdom needed to ground WCM’s offerings in environmental care.
Together, they guide WCM’s rhythm of return — blending emotional healing and economic empowerment, voice and water, land and story — to create a uniquely Malaysian model of women-led wellness and grassroots education.
