March Philoxenia Brunch:   
 Saturday, 3/28

Let’s gather together for a Saturday morning Brunch at Stephanie Vlahakis’s Chicago apartment to welcome Spring with a conversation about growing, changing, and becoming. Life is never a finished act but a constant state of becoming.  Change is, in its own way, a form of hospitality toward life. To resist change is to resist life. The act of becoming keeps us curious, humble, and open. In that openness, true connection - and true hospitality - live and grow. In the spirit of growing and changing, join us for something new and different in a warm and welcoming setting with good food, interesting conversation, and meaningful connection.

-Saturday, March 28, 11am - 1pm
-Stephanie’s apartment: 345 E Wacker Dr. (Coast Bldg)
Unit #4601, Chicago
-Spot Hero recommended for parking.

 

Cost is $25 per person.

Space is limited, so please reserve ASAP! 

Navigating Your (Bonus) Life with Intention and Purpose
4 75-minute workshops on Saturday, April 11th, 18th, 25th, and May 2nd
from 9:30am - 10:45am via Zoom.

We are pioneers, navigating a life span that has never been experienced in human history. We may think of it as merely "getting older" or we may worry about finances and the possibility of being in assisted living. But there is a better way. It is the possibility of a new adult life stage of 20 years (or so) that we can embrace with joy and fulfillment. What do you want to do with this one, wild and precious (bonus) life, to paraphrase the wonderful poet Mary Oliver?

Because we are pioneers, society hasn't yet created the structures and support to aid us in discovering a new path and guiding us along the way. This four week workshop will send you on your way. It is a process that will help you uncover what feels meaningful and right for you at this point in your life, and prepare you for what might lie in store for you. With new content and the support of the gatHERing community, this workshop is for anyone who is uncertain about what could be next.

With gentle guidance, the opportunity for one on one coaching, and powerful tools, you will emerge from this experience with insights and opportunities that will help you live with intention and a sense of meaning. If you have taken workshops with us before, this will build on previous work. If you are new to our workshops, there is no need to have prior experience with us, and it is an excellent introduction to gatHERing. 

Let's enter the joy of spring with a renewed sense of purpose and excitement at what could be next!

Cost is $199 per person.
