About this Event
Step into an evening shaped by truth, reflection, and courageous conversation with author, C. Cole. This gathering introduces I AM THE FLAME, an unflinching memoir exploring loss, resilience, and the legacy we choose to create from life’s most difficult moments.
Through storytelling, guided reflection, and meaningful dialogue, participants are invited to confront inherited narratives, examine personal truths, and consider how pain may be transformed into purpose. This is not simply a book event. It is an intentional space for contemplation, connection, and awakening.
Guests will experience selected readings, reflective exercises, and thoughtful discussion designed to foster clarity, presence, and perspective. You will leave grounded, challenged, and inspired to engage your own life with deeper intention.
This evening is for those prepared to sit with honesty, listen with openness, and explore what it means to live in alignment with the legacy they wish to leave behind.
Seats are limited to maintain intimacy and allow for meaningful participation.
*Light refreshments and non-alcoholic beverages will be provided.
