About this event

  • Event lasts 2 hours

Do you keep telling people you're OK, but you're not? Do you feel judged or frustrated by people's expectations? It's time to prioritize yourself - everyone is struggling with something - wouldn't it be nice to feel like it's not just you?

It's OK you're not OK, yet

During our time together in this inaugural session of our series, we will explore the power of vulnerability, self-compassion, and community support.

This session is for you if you're woman-identifying and

  • tired of pretending to have it all together
  • always helping others but don't feel supported
  • wanting to feel heard and understood

Do you just want to feel good again? Feel like you're in control and at peace?

You're not alone and it's OK that we are not OK, yet

Join us for an empowering moment of discovery and authentic conversations

Frequently asked questions

What should I wear/bring?

Be yourself - dress however you feel most comfortable to lounge around. If you'd like to bring your own cushion or yoga mat, feel free!

What can I expect?

A calm, inclusive, grief and trauma-informed space to share as much as you feel comfortable in guided conversation with professional facilitators, light refreshment and snacks, a connection to a new community and uninterrupted time dedicated to yourself.

What if I have certain sensory, dietary or mobility considerations?

We believe that access is a fundamental right and we will do everything to accommodate you. Please email us directly with your concern hello@flowcollective.ca
