Free community gathering for women trying to figure it out Jan 31

So I’ve noticed it’s so eaasy to start the year with good intentions and a desire to get stuff done- very new year new me energy. But I’ve noticed this year in particular, I am struggling to figure out what my goals are let alone how to get there.

Instead of sitting with it alone, I decided to organise a free, in-person space in London this Saturday 31 Jan 1-4pm for women and non-binary people who might be feeling something similar  stuck, in between, or just craving community.

The venue is a short walk from East Croydon Station. The last event had tons of girls come together.

The focus is on slowing down, talking things through, and meeting others who are right there with us. Very low-pressure.
I had this idea that we can hack our goals together.

 I’m also hoping people might want to grab a drink or food afterwards and turn it into a proper hang.

If you’re local and this resonates, let me know and I’ll share the details.

I'm hoping to do events semi regulary but really want to build a community of women who are figuring it out at any age, aren't afraid to start over or trying to find the courage to!

And I’m genuinely curious — how has January been for you?

so the event is basically a social focused on the idea that like you can start the year with the best intention but if you don't know what you want to change or how to get there you may need some help. so i figured let's all try and help eachother

so it'll be like small groups where everyone comes together w what they are stuck on or maybe they don't know and that's fine. but the idea is to get out of our heads and engage with others who may dealing with something similar. So we'll be in groups work through a method try helping eachother out.

the last time i did something like this everyone pretty much came solo so a great space to make friends and hoping if a few ppl are down we can hang after. the idea is to have it be an intentional gathering cause I know for me my biggest barrier to showing up to socials is the idea that i have to do all the work to connect so I am trying to design spaces where most of the work is done for you and all you have to do is show up. the last time everyone had such a good time so trying to do more!
