Rooted Relationships for Midlife

For Women in Midlife Seeking Genuine Connections

When was the last time you truly connected with someone new—outside the usual routines of work, family, or errands? Not just small talk, but an easy, affirming connection with someone who feels like your kind of person.

Friendship in midlife can feel elusive. Life gets busy, priorities shift, and making new friends doesn’t come as easily as it once did. That’s why we’ve partnered with Community Spark to host Friend Connection Nights, created for women navigating this unique stage of life who are ready to meet others who understand.

We know the challenges: You crave connection, but finding it can feel daunting. These evenings are a refreshing alternative if bars, hobby clubs, or “mom groups” don’t resonate. We aim to make it simple, low-pressure, and comfortable for you to show up just as you are.

Here’s what to expect:

• Warm & Welcoming Atmosphere: Think cozy, intimate vibes with warm drinks, snacks, and a space that feels like a friend’s living room.
• Guided Conversations: We’ll start with light intentions and then break into small groups. Where Should We Begin cards by Esther Perel to spark meaningful, engaging conversations.
• Get to Know Each Other: Everyone gets time to answer questions while others dive deeper with follow-ups. It’s structured enough to keep things flowing but relaxed enough to feel natural.

This isn’t about instant BFFs (real friendships take time). It’s about opening the door to possibility—leaving with someone’s number, a shared laugh, or the confidence to put yourself out there again. Even if all you gain is the courage to chat with someone new tomorrow, that’s a win in our book.
