Creating meaningful connections

I often hear people sharing about how they do not know where to start when it comes to making new friends or meeting new people. People feel fatigued by the lack of deep connection available in large group settings. It can be lonely and disconnecting when seeing people through the lens of social media. It's easy to see friends and not discuss topics to get to know them in a new way.

I am excited to create a space where strangers and friends alike can gather, to experience connecting with others in meaningful ways. Together we can create a temporary moment in time where we each are seen and heard. Where we can learn from each other and leave feeling nourished by our shared human experience no matter our ages or walks of life. - Meg

Upcoming dinner dates

Location: San Luis Obispo CA,

What to expect

Ritual Abode dinners are an intimate gathering of eight guests, all women, centered around a themed discussion. The topic for the night will be designed to encourage guests to open up, be vulnerable, share in common experiences and leave feeling fulfilled by the conversations created around the table. I am inviting you to join in, bring yourself, your willingness to share and participate. Gather around a table set with delicious food cooked by a private chef and indulge in an evening of conversation, community, and connection.
