Join us for a workshop to step into 2025 with clarity and intention✨ We often rush into the new year with resolutions and goals (which don't always work), but to create more fulfillment is through intentions. Intentions = the way we want to show up, whether in life as a whole, or in specific domains such as relationships, health, career, etc. Through the ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) approach of identifying core values (aka intentions), you can gain clarity on what gives you purpose and how you want to feel in the new year. Rather than centering resolutions, you’ll learn how to connect with intentions and cultivate a deeper sense of meaning and flow. What to Expect: 🪷 Grounding Meditation to calm the nervous system and tap into inner wisdom 📝 Reflective journal prompts to identify intentions and create mini goals & actions to align with them 💞 Community sharing & nourishing tea/snacks ✨ Mindfulness Sound Bath Non-members can RSVP here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/new-year-intention-setting-tickets-1125708848469?aff=oddtdtcreator About your facilitator: Nira (she/her) is a licensed psychotherapist and yoga/meditation instructor, blending Eastern and Western approaches to help folks heal and grow.

When you spend the better part of your time off work traveling from here to there across our great state, you get to know people. In my case, most of my traveling involves wine, getting to the wine, talking about the wine, driving around the wine (vineyards), drinking the wine, or having a meal with, you guessed it - some wine! So let me share with you the fruits of my labor (see what I did there): I've met some great people who produce great wine, and I'd like to share a few of their wines with you. I've got some fun, interesting and a few really small production wines from Santa Barbara to Sonoma, and since we are GROWING our knowledge of wine and feeding our PALATES, we will have a little bit of a discussion about the wines, the winemakers etc., you'll tell the group your thoughts on the wine, I'll tell you a few fun stories, and we will decide if we want to go visit any of these guys when we hit the road on our big wine trip (#2025goals). 2025 Resolution to ourselves and our group: let’s enjoy good wine and great company, and as always I'm look forward to seeing all of you at our very long table. :) Food/lite dinner will be served!

Ready to take on one of the most thrilling and spectacular coastal hikes in California? Back by popular demand, we’re excited to announce the second annual King Tide Hidden Coast Challenge! Last year’s journey was unforgettable—technically challenging, jaw-droppingly beautiful, and full of surprises as we navigated this lonely, rugged, pristine coastline during the King Tide. This year, as the year's extreme low tide returns in January, we’re gearing up to do it all over again. From vibrant tidepools and narrow keyholes to traversing towering cliffs above crashing waves, this hike will test your limits and leave you awestruck. It’s a challenging trek that's only accessible a few times a year, but those who joined us last year know it’s one of the most rewarding adventures the Bay Area has to offer. 🌅 Our Adventure Includes: Navigating miles of tide-slick boulders and traversing rocky promontories. Passing through the iconic Elephant Cave, a massive sea cavern with stunning ocean views. Squeezing through keyholes that hug the edge of the surf, where timing and caution are key. Exploring pristine beaches and tidepools alive with starfish, anemones, and more. Spotting seasonal waterfalls cascading down to the coast. 🌊 Key Details: Date & Time: Sunday, January 12, 2024, 2:00 PM (Hard Departure from McClures Beach Parking Lot) Distance: ~2.9 miles one-way (we will leave some vehicles as shuttles at Kehoe Beach) Difficulty: Very Difficult (Advanced) Expected Duration: 4-5 hours (finishing after sunset—headlamp required) Low Tide: ~4:57 PM Sunset: ~5:12 PM 🌲 What to Bring: Required: Sturdy footwear with excellent traction and a headlamp (we’ll finish after sunset). Recommended: Trekking poles, gloves for rock scrambles, dry bag for essentials, layers for coastal weather, snacks, water, and a change of clothes. 📍 Meeting Spot: McClures Beach Trailhead. [https://maps.app.goo.gl/gVJJ7KadHqhw6PXd8] 🗺️ Our Route: [https://www.strava.com/routes/3182104786018089558] ⚠️ Important Notes: This hike is not for beginners. Participants must be comfortable navigating technical terrain, group pacing, and potentially getting wet in deep surf zones. Conditions can change rapidly. Leaders will monitor the tide and surf closely, but safety depends on everyone’s preparedness and caution. The keyholes require precise timing to pass safely—we will stick to a strict schedule. Join us for another epic journey along Marin’s wild coastline. This hike will push your limits and reward you with some of the most spectacular scenery Point Reyes has to offer. If you missed it last year, don’t miss this chance to experience the unforgettable Hidden Coast Challenge! 🌊✨

Business Club is a monthly networking and peer mentoring opportunity for all professionals and creatives to connect, exchange ideas, and problem solve over their morning cuppa. The meetings are facilitated by Sophie Davies to ensure everyone has equal time to introduce themselves and ask for what they need. How it works: After introductions the group breaks out into smaller groups to allow everyone to share “an ask” through peer mentoring with your makeshift advisory board. “Your ask” can be a specific idea that you need feedback on or a challenge you need help with. This work-related inclusive club is for everyone who understands that while we tend to work individually, we regularly encounter the same work challenges and believe that collectively we are stronger when we support each other and figure things out together. These gatherings are limited to 20 people, so please commit to staying for the duration of the session.

The best laid plans... for our follow-up with clients, customers, and even friends, sometimes fall by the wayside. Join us for this structured, fun, and supportive space to get our calls done... our emails done... our texts... anything you want! We will make it fun :-) Each session begins with a brief talk about some aspect around being more effective at reaching out and making connections. Join us! ✨
