Hosted in part by Gwen Pelfini β a familiar face from our Peer Support Group β alongside Sura Hertzberg, this special dinner opens the table to a big, messy, beautiful conversation about motherhood.
Calling all Momsβ¦ of kids, of projects, of pets; books; businesses. Mothers of the friend group, the boardroom, the classroom. And also those who hope to become mothers, those pondering what motherhood means, and those who know definitively that it isnβt for them. We welcome you. We need you. We want to hear your voices.
The idea is simple: bring unique thinkers β with hungry bellies β together around one table. A special multi-course meal will feed you while a small group explores the complexities of motherhood through round-table discussion, guided conversations, and moments of personal reflection.
Gwen and Sura are licensed therapists working with relationships and consciousness expansion. Theyβve spent a lot of time asking these questionsβwith each other, with patients, friends, communities, and naturally, with their own mothers. Too often our experiences remain siloed, while the glossy versions of motherhood take up all the space. This evening is an invitation to go somewhere more honest, curious, complicated, and human.
Food and the belly have their own complex relationship with motherhood, too. The intention is to nourish mind and body with equal careβmaking room for conversation, connection, digestion, and the nervous system.
Come. Eat. Letβs chat. Weβd be honored to have you at the table.
