An intimate, reflective mini-retreat for women exploring healthy relationships with self and others, rooted in introspection and connection
About this Event

Soft but Solid is a two-hour, small-group mini-retreat for women who want to cultivate healthier relationships with themselves and others by becoming more grounded, discerning, and emotionally attuned — without overextending themselves.


This experience is designed for those navigating the quiet tension between staying open and honoring their boundaries, between softness and self-trust, and who want to explore how their inner relationship shapes the connections they build outward.


Hosted in an intimate café setting, the evening blends guided reflection, gentle teaching, and intentional dialogue. The pace is unhurried, the group is intentionally small, and the focus is on awareness and integration rather than fixing or performing.


This is not therapy — but it is therapeutic.



What You’ll Walk Away With
  • A gentler awareness of your needs, boundaries, and inner signals
  • Language for discernment, emotional safety, and self-trust
  • A grounded sense of connection — without pressure to overshare
  • One personal insight you can integrate into daily life
  • Curated goodies to extend the experience beyond the event



Whats Included
  • Two-hour facilitated mini-retreat
  • Drink + dessert
  • Raffle prizes!
  • Small-group reflective experience
  • Calm, café-based setting



Who This Is For

This space is best suited for adult women who are interested in introspection, emotional clarity, and cultivating healthier inner and relational dynamics. No prior experience is required — just a willingness to slow down and listen inward.


This space is open to all women, including trans women and nonbinary individuals who identify with womanhood.



What to Expect
  • Gentle guidance, not lectures
  • Reflection without pressure to share
  • Thoughtful pacing and emotional safety
  • A welcoming, hosted environment
