Coffee & Conversation
Coffee & Conversation is a gathering that, in the short time of two hours, creates a safe space in which issues affecting the participants can be shared openly. A simple process that uses symbols and metaphors along with relevant conversation starters ensures that trust is built. Conversation basics are introduced by a facilitator.
Each new day offers us the opportunity to expand our experience of being the best of who we are and can be. So grab a cup of coffee. Settle in. Smile! You’re with like-minded women sharing the best of who they are, and providing conversations that inspire and evoke creative self-expression and value. Are you ready to have conversations that matter?
