Come Sit with Us
About this Event
An evening of meaningful conversation, warm hospitality and connection for women who are longing for something more, even in the ordinary.
Maybe you want to make a difference in the world around you, but you're not quite sure what that looks like.
Maybe you're building a business, raising a family, growing a career, creating something new, or simply trying to be more intentional with the life that's already in front of you.
Come sit with us.
On Thursday, September 17, The Blooming Place is gathering women at Bloom Culture for an evening of honest conversation about the simple, practical ways we can create positive impact in the places we already live, work and belong.
Ashley, the host behind The Blooming Place and owner of Fiore Fine Events, will be joined by her friend Grace of For Kingdom & Sparrow for a relaxed fireside conversation about what this has looked like in their own lives: from creating employment opportunities for vulnerable women to creating spaces where people feel seen, welcomed and like they belong.
Not because either of them has it all figured out, but because sometimes the best way to inspire one another is simply to share what we're learning and what we've been brave enough to try.
And then the conversation becomes yours.
When you arrive, you'll choose a conversation circle based on a question that resonates with you. After the fireside chat, you'll already be sitting with a small group of women ready to continue the conversation, to share ideas, experiences and encouragement around creating impact in your own everyday lives.
Because impact doesn't always have to be big.
We want you to leave encouraged to stop waiting until you have more time, more resources, more confidence or the perfect idea and simply begin with what's already in your hands.
What to expect
A beautiful, relaxed evening with light snacks and non-alcoholic drinks, an honest "fireside" conversation with Grace and Ashley, thoughtfully curated conversation circles, time to connect with other women, and an opportunity to shop pieces from For Kingdom & Sparrow.
A portion of every ticket will also go directly toward supporting the work of and their mission to create dignified employment opportunities for vulnerable women.
