Navigating the Holidays During Difficult Times

Join us for an evening of support & connection

The holiday season can bring up a lot — joy, love, but also grief, loss, loneliness, or overwhelm. For many in our community, this time of year can be especially complex.

Join us for an evening of connection and care as we come together in a facilitated conversation to support one another through the challenges the holidays can bring.

This is a space to share, listen, and be held in community as we navigate the season with self-care and wellbeing at the center.

This gathering will be held in a circle-style support format, where each voice is welcome and everyone is invited to participate in the way that feels right for them.

We will also include practical tips that support self-regulation and tips for centering your holiday experience on self-care and wellbeing.

You can expect an insightful, supportive, and connecting evening.

Who this event is for:

Anyone in the alternative communities who may be moving through difficult emotions or experiences during the holidays. Themes may include grief, loss, mental health, trauma, family dynamics, neurodivergence, bipolar spectrum, bereavement, and more.

Join us if you are carrying heaviness or navigating challenges, including but not limited to:

• The loss of a loved one
• The end of a relationship or friendship
• Loss of a job, career transition, or financial instability
• Distance or estrangement from family
• Social anxiety or isolation
• Holiday-related stress or overwhelm
• Feeling disconnected, lonely, or emotionally stretched
• Any experience that makes this season feel complicated rather than joyful

We will meet in circle: no hierarchy, just humans coming together. All voices matter. There will be space for sharing for anyone who feels called.

Come as you are. You are not alone.
Together, we can navigate the season with compassion and care.
Together we are stronger!
